Santa Stationary from Scarebaby

Here’s a free printable from Scarebaby Design! Also, it’s a “From the Desk of Santa Claus” page of stationery that you can download for free. So, simply copy the image, and print it out on your home printer.

Uses for Santa Stationary

Probably the best use is to send a letter from the North Pole to your favorite little boy or girl, reminding them to be extra good for the holiday season. Another use of this cute stationery is to have “Santa” reply to a child’s letter.

Description of Santa Stationary

Furthermore, the page has got St. Nick’s picture in one corner, and festive holly sprigs in the corners. The festive red text reads “From the desk of Santa Claus”. Most noteworthy, it should print out at a standard 8.5 x 11 inches, which gives “Santa” plenty of space to write. Therefore, your little one(s) will love getting a letter from Santa for their very own, and it’ll put them (and you) in the holiday spirit.

The Christmas Poinsettia – Background

Auntie Shoe brushed up a bit on her Christmas poinsettia knowledge for this blog post. Well, she read the Wikipedia thingy about it.

What Auntie learned, in the very first paragraph, no less, is that the flower was really named for a human being. A real guy. A gent whose name happens to be Joel Roberts Poinsett. He was the first United States Minister to Mexico. He brought poinsettias to the USA when he returned. Betcha didn’t know that one! (Auntie Shoe didn’t either.) Christmas poinsettias are really lovely. Thanks, Mr. Poinsett for making it possible!

Here’s something else I bet you didn’t know. The Christmas poinsettia began with a legend in the sixteenth century. That was waaaaaaaaay loooooooong ago. Even before Auntie was born, so you know we got some years there.

Anyway, the legend claims that there was a little girl who was too poor to buy Christmas gifts. An angel came to her and told her to pull some weeds and put them on the church altar. This she did. (Children in legends are often obedient and do exactly as they are told. If this were only so for those children not in legends… but, your Auntie digresses.) The weeds changed into the crimson flower. And thus, was born, according to legend, the Christmas poinsettia.

Auntie Shoe thinks this is a cool story. Came from that same Wikipedia page mentioned above.

Anyway, that’s just a bit of background for fun.

Faux Woven Christmas Poinsettia on Poker Chips

Below we have a round ornament, designed by Auntie Shoe, featuring a faux (that’s posh for “fake”) weave with a Christmas poinsettia. It is available on many products here. But it is showing on poker chips because Auntie thinks they would look cool on your player’s table.

Hope you have a lovely holiday season!
