Dawn…Wow, what a wonderful surprise that you stopped in and left me a comment. Your wooden Santa balls are my favorite pieces for my collection and I have many times wished I bought more of them! Thank you so much for dropping by

What a pleasure to see that people are still enjoying our wooden Christmas balls. They were produced in the 1990′s through our company, “Stebleton Folk Art” of Woolwich, Maine. Each ball was individually created by Robert and myself in our workshop. There were a limited number of them produced so you have unique handmade Santas that won’t be in every Santa collection.

Best regards, Dawn Stebleton

I love the pictures from your Santa collection. My mom collects them and I always enjoy seeing other Santas because it reminds me of her. I too have a fascination with the story of Santa. It’s still magical for me.

lovely pictures Wendy. When we were kids we had a pillowcase hooked over the end of the bed for Santa to fill. It never occurred to us that our mother already knew what Santa had left!
