Merry Christmas From The Funniest Little Nutcracker

A pair of nutcrackers greeted me at my last open house, at 65 North Main Street in Woodstown, NJ.  At first I didn't notice that the large guy on the left didn't have a nose.   I found him to be a most whimsical kind of guy.  (I suppose someone without a nose does make one feel 'whimsical.)

I just had to snap his picture and introduce him to all of you here.  I hope he makes you smile.......as he made me smile, too! 

I have some nutcrackers here in my home, but I've yet to find one who has had such a storied past as Pinocchio.  One day, I'll introduce you to my nutcrackers.  One of my favorites is the 'rat king' from the ballet "The Nutcracker".  He was a gift from my sister as a souvenir from Germany. 

I'd love to hear from you, especially if you have any nutcrackers.  I'll post some others here, too!   Thanks!

I met Herr Steinbach at an event....seems he is a modern master of Nutcrackers and he autographed my Irish nutcracker

Chris - It is a funny picture.  One has no nose, and the other looks like it has a really long nose.  They are quite a pair!

Chris, I don't have any nutcrackers but the nut crackers in the picture  are just adorable and they depict Christmas. Happy Holiday!
