Thanksgiving Decor (Using a Cast of Characters) Part Three

Welcome to part three of my series pertaining to using a cast of characters to create ambience in your succulent garden or anywhere within your home for Thanksgiving. In yesterday's HT entry (part two), I concluded by stating "please join Humpty Dumpty, Madam Falling Leaf, Mr. Moon-In-The-Man, as well as Claudia and Claude crow tomorrow, when we welcome 'traditional' Thanksgiving characters to my succulent garden," and that's what the aforementioned characters (whose photo-ops are in that post) as well as yours truly are doing today!
Turkeys are considered to be a traditional symbol (AND UNFORTUNATELY MEAL), at this holiday but not the turkey seen in image one and two of today's post sitting atop a succulent in my garden. He/she need not ruffle his/her feathers over that as I do not eat meat, pork or fowl, hence this turkey is safe with me.
Pilgrims are also symbols for the Thanksgiving holiday, and because of this a pair of fraternal twins are visiting my succulent garden; they can be seen in image three of this entry, where they are waiting in the armoire (a "holding" area in my studio as described in previous HT posts including one @ http://www.hometalk.com/diy/halloween-decor-indoors-mostly-2412379).
And photo-ops of them (from bygone years) in my succulent garden are seen in pictures four through nine of this entry.
This brings me to the conclusion of part three of Thanksgiving decor, and I will ask you, dear reader, to please join me the day after tomorrow (Friday November 22nd 2013), when I welcome other "traditional" Thanksgiving characters to my succulent garden!
(BTW, for purchase Info on these figurines please call Steve Mohr at 212-580-8404)
