Christmas Ornaments "Wooden Shoes"

From a trip to, where else, Holland, where children put them out for Sinter Klaas to put presents in them (larger ones, of course!)....... oh, the memories they evoke....

We gave up buying dust catching souvenirs a long time ago when I had to dust them all. We began instead, to collect small items to put on the Christmas tree. So each year, it is a trip down memory lane as I recount where each item originated. This year I began to document all the Christmas ornaments and write their stories.
These very small wooden shoes (about 1" long) were freebies from a trip to Holland.
