Do you remember the festive shop window display that Nigel loved so much last Christmas in our village Motorworld shop?
Well, Nigel was looking in there again yesterday, (hoping for perhaps an unseasonal glimpse of a knitted sheep or shepherd) ……
…… when he noticed a glint of silver in the corner and spied mahoooosive shield ….
It seems that Motorworld won the Parish Council Best Christmas Window 2011, how BRILLIANT is that? Nigel was quite emotional, because he really did love it, and each evening during Advent, before bath and bed, Darrell would walk him round to see it all lit up.
Now ….. that has got a us thinking advanced thoughts of a festive theme and nature …. wondering if the competition is strictly for shop windows ……as we think we could put together a very robust display in our front room window! We shall phone our Parish Councillor and enquire!!
Great idea boys! Preparation is the key! JantheFan
ReplyDeleteNothing like an early start.
ReplyDeleteYou could be knitting a Santa whilst on the beach during your summer holidays.
Nigel could be part of the display - I'm sure a window with movement will catch the eye of the judges.
The knitted nativity scene of Motor World was just the beginning of endless possibilities for holiday artistic expression! Good luck creating a winning display for your windows; I know you will have many fabulous holiday decorating display ideas that will impress the Parish Council come the Christmas season!...Dianne
