Maileg...Just a Few of My Favorite Things

Maileg is a Danish company...I adore everything they make.  This advent calendar knocks my socks off!  It is so cute!  Oh, but wait until you see their garland calendar...

I'll just take the cute little boy and the white reindeer, too.
My $10 chair goes well with this line of toys, don't you think? 
I put the 'sheep' vintage vocabulary card in day '24.'  After all, our sacrificial Lamb comes that night...given to us as a sweet little baby boy.
The little brown discs with red ribbon are our 'Jesse Tree' ornaments.  This is our first year doing the advent tree.  It has been such a blessing.  This advent calendar helps me to remember our devotion each night.  I should also put a note in each pocket to remind me to move 'Zelfman' our elf!  The 4 am jolts are killing me!
These toys are keepsakes.  I just know I will use them with my grandchildren one day.



Remember the flag on the Dutch secretary?  Maileg.  The little clown inside the glass doors is by them, too.
The Princess and the Pea is also by the Danish company and was a gift from Santa last year for my youngest daughter (here.)
The bunny is Maileg and can be found in the post, "A Swedish Intent."

These are just a few of my favorite things...

What are your favorites this Christmas?

  3. Christie, I think I'm in love. Everything from Maileg has the perfect touch of whimsey. The whole look of your blog is peaceful. After reading about the Lamb of the 24th, I understand why. I would love for you to come by my blog. I have a vintage garland tutorial and giveaway I think you might enjoy. Blessings, Cindy
