April 23-25 Earth Day Festival, Donald and Carol Kress Pavilion, Egg Harbor

Please note that these events may change as the dates get closer.

As we mentioned in our last newsletter, we have received our first shipment of Russian Santas and Nesting Dolls and they are all listed on our website. These pieces are one of a kind pieces of artwork. Each one is hand carved and painted. We continue to be amazed by the talent of these incredible artists. As always we only have one of each Santa available. If there is something that you like, please order it today to ensure you get it!

We have received a couple more new Christopher Radko ornaments styles for the year! You can see all of them on our website. Some of our favorites include A Devine Pine Guardian, which features a beautiful woodland fairy. A Rolling Stones Christmas, which features the iconic lips and tongue image on the front of the ornament and the Rolling Stones name on the back. A Cupful of Cuteness! features an adorable penguin sitting in a delightful red teacup surrounded by candy. There really are so many cute ones to choose from, it is hard to pick a favorite.

We have also received a large shipment of Old World Christmas ornaments. For many of our customers we know that Old World is a favorite on your tree. This year, we have over 50 new styles of Old World ornaments. Some of the new styles that have come in include a basketball hoop, bird bath, cream puff (great for any WI State Fair lovers), firefighter's coat, Ranch Dressing, Hot Wings and Dip, and so much more. With over 1,000 different styles of ornaments, we're sure you can find something with meaning for all your friends and family members.

More new 2021 Carolers are arriving at Tannenbaum and we cannot wait to share them with you.

First up, we have our Nautical Santa and Mrs. Claus. These two are ready for an adventure! Santa is dressed in a navy sweater (with a yellow and blue shirt underneath it) denim pants, and black boots. He is holding his fishing net ready to hit the Door County waters. Mrs Claus, is busy steering the way. She is wearing a white sweater, blue pants, and black boots. She is holding a ship wheel. Both Santa and Mrs. Claus are wearing yellow hats. Finish off this look with the Nautical Hoop tree and Nautical Bench. These beautiful pieces can be used all summer long!

This year Byer's Choice has created a Betsy Ross Caroler sitting on a bench sewing that first American Flag. Betsy is wearing a beautiful blue dress with a white petticoat with red trim. She is sitting on a classic white bench.

One of the new sets we have is the Stewart Family, all wearing a traditional Christmas Red. The Man is wearing his best red coat with grey slacks and is carrying a lovely wreath and jingle bells. The Stewart Woman is wearing a red coat with a grey plaid skirt. She too is carrying a wreath and has a white muff. The Stewart Girl is dressed similar to the Woman with a red coat and grey plaid skirt. She is holding a wreath with berries. Finally we have the Stewart Boy in a red coat and grey slacks. He is carrying a berry and pear wreath and jingle bells. This smart looking family is the perfect combination of holiday and class.

Coming this summer.....We will have the Musical family in green. Dad is wearing a striking dark green coat with brown pants and is playing the baritone. Mom has a light green top over a brown gingham skirt and is ready to play with her French horn. The young girl is dressed in a similar outfit to the women with a light green top and brown gingham skirt, she is playing the violin. And finally we have the musical boy in his light green top and dark green shorts playing a guitar. The Musical Family is always a popular collection, so we are currently taking preorders for this family of carolers.

This Spring as you are thinking about your trips to Door County, we thought you may like to color your way through..... For the last two years we have offered the Color Your Way Through Door County Coloring Book by Jan Rasmussen. This coloring book is fun for the whole family, not just because it involves coloring but because it can be a great reminder of all the wonderful places and memories you have built in Door County.
