Christmas Decorating - Department 56 North Pole Bookcase Dioramas

Looking for some Halloween flavor? Check out my Halloween village in the same bookcase, but with a hand made pepper's ghost tower thrown in:

You can create great looking Christmas village displays on existing surfaces in your home. An elaborate table setup is not always needed.

I’ve been decorating with my Department 56 North Pole Village houses since 1993. My first house was the Reindeer Barn. That gave me the Dept 56 bug. In the subsequent 28 years I acquired a total of 21 houses in the North Pole collection and numerous accessories. While I used to put out big table displays, in recent years I’ve kept it more simple, creating smaller dioramas on existing surfaces in our house.

I plan to create a handful of videos illustrating my techniques.

Fake snow = Buffalo Now Flurries Extra Fine 5 Quarter bag. This is the first year I’ve tried it, and it is amazing. Prior to this I always used the Dept 56 brand snow.

The foam walls were carved and painted by me in 2020, so this is my second season using them.
