Dickin's Christmas Village

Dickin's Christmas Village

Hi guys! So today I am going to talk about our Dickin's Christmas Village. This village is from Hallmark department 56. These pieces are from the book The Christmas Carol.

So I will start out with the pieces my Grandparents gave us this year. So first I will talk about Potts Pub. So when we got this home we realized that it has a very small fragile sign with a pot dangling from it. A couple of our other pieces are like that to and we don't put them on because of the cat. This year we decided to put this sign on. So far it hasn't been knocked of but we just put it up yesterday. So the next few pieces all kind of go together. First is the Devon Brooks Span Cottage. Next is Brandon Mill and last is the London Gin Distillery. The these are all connected by e set of rivers. There is a bridge it goes under and the next two pieces have mills. The mills actually turn when you plug them in. Then she got us a tree, Scrooges Merry Christmas, which is Scrooge being nice to people, and a hoarse drawn sleigh ride. Lastly she got us three different sized foam blocks to put under the snow so the land isn't just flat. Thank you guys very much!


















Ok so we also have some other pieces. First we have Scrooges house with the ghosts dancing around him inside. Then we have Bob Cratchit's house with some people in the window. Next we have a really pretty church. There is a lot of stone detailing on the walls of the church. Next we have Scrooge and Marley's Counting House. Those are all the houses we have.












Now I will talk about the accessories. So first we have a hoarse drawn carriage delivering barrels of beer to the pub. We also have all three of the spirits and Scrooge together. We have around six different tree's too. Then we have tiny Tim on Bob's shoulders. Lastly we have a guy roasting chestnuts which is really cute.












So that is out Dickin's Christmas Village!


-Bye People
