Do You Believe In Santa Claus?

I can't really remember ever believing in Santa Claus. To the best of my recollection I always knew Mom, Dad and the Grandparents were really Santa Claus. However, I did know some children who had a firm belief in the jolly old fat man.

Some people don't like the myth of Santa Claus. Some feel it detracts from the religious meaning of the holiday. Others believe it is not right to tell your children a story about a stranger bringing gifts to all good little boys and girls when they know it is a lie. Still others believe Santa is just a symbol of commercialism representing the commercialization of Christmas.

Personally, I don't see the harm in a little belief in the magical. At least for the time when you still can believe in such things. The harsh realities of life will come soon enough. Who can resist smiling at the way a child's face lights up at the sight of Santa? What can be wrong in that?

Anway, Santa has visited C & P Treasures and left lots of great things in the store. Check them out. Maybe some of them will make your little angel's face light up!

Decorate Your Kids Room With a Great Theme

It can be easy and fun to decorate a child's room. With a little imagination, you can give them a room they will love.

When my niece was younger she loved dogs. She loved the movie "101 Dalmatians". She even loved the live action one. Unfortunately, I did not share her view. Anyway, we decided to fix her room up as a surprise. I bought a 101 Dalmatians comforter for her bed. It was very cute. It had Lucky the pup and was trimmed with bones.

I bought some wall border which had puppies and kittens. We did two of her walls with the wall border. I also found some 101 Dalmatians wall stencils. We stenciled a doghouse and some colorful bones around it on one wall.

I also found a used 101 Dalmatians clock on Ebay which I bought for not much of anything. The clock was a great touch.

I bought some plain blue curtains to match the blue in the comforter. We added further touches by hanging a wall shelf and placing little dog figurines on the shelf. My niece used to buy these little figurines at garage sales and as it turned out they made great decorations for her room.

She loved the room and it was very cute. The best thing was it didn't cost much money. We just tied everything in to match the comforter.

Of course she is a teenager now and the dogs are long gone. But I still miss them!

If you are thinking of decorating your child's room in a theme, C & P Treasures has some great comforter sets. Check them out.

Fall Is Just Around the Corner!

Fall is my favorite time of year and it is just around the corner.  This week has been unseasonably cool and rainy where I live.   The air already has a fall feeling.  I love the changing of the colors that autumn brings.  The trees will be ablaze with red and orange and the air will be cool and crisp.

Fall also brings my favorite holiday, Halloween.  Every Halloween we decorate our yard with a haunted house with a graveyard in the front.  We have ghosts, witches with brewing cauldrons and jack o'lanterns galore.  The kids love it when they come trick or treating.  I actually enjoy decorating for Halloween more than Christmas.  It's such spooky fun! 

When I was a kid we always gathered around the TV to watch It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.  It is still my favorite Halloween cartoon.  We still watch it every year.  Peanuts is timeless and Snoopy is a superstar.

I have began to add fall items in my store.  I have listed some great hoodie jackets at bargain prices.  I will be adding more jackets in the coming days.  I have also added a few other new things including a Cars Lightning McQueen Talking Alarm Clock Lamp, Tinker Bell Twin Comforter and Barbie Fairytopia Magic of the Rainbow Enchanted Giftset.
