Santa on Route 66!

I took this picture last night as I was leaving the shop. Santa's house is on the square in downtown Pontiac, ready for Santa to arrive during the Light Up Parade on November 29th. If you've never been to the parade you should come downtown at dusk and see what you've been missing! Many great floats, all made out of lights, will be escorting Santa Clause into town.

If you've never been to our Old City Hall Shoppes page on Facebook, please check it out and "like" us. I regularly post cool things that are going on in Pontiac and at the shop.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas..........

 This display is over our Main Street door and includes lots of vintage toys.
 Necklaces, bracelets, sachets, and also vintage items on an antique dresser. 
 Go Bears! This year, I've been watching more football, and the displays got some orange and blue action.
 Vintage quilts, touches of black and red, and a whole different kind of Christmas tree, cut from a local farm and painted white.
 Red and black instead of red and green. Nice!
 Glowing Christmas tree decorated with ....

vintage photos and snowflakes.
 A simple old nativity.
Little touches of red and Christmas items on a dresser.
