Does Anyone who have Christmas village

[SDP40F amtrak 2,447]

If there are any people who collection Christmas village or towns during the holidays I do during the  holidays

Yeah, My cousin and I have one. She's been adding one or two buildings every year for a long time and I brought a few to add to it when I moved in with her last Christmas season. It's pretty big now; 12-15 buildings, some trees and some figures.

Not that much, but had a couple of Christmas trains, and the villages where mostly at my Grandma's house. My parents didn't have the habit of the traditional birth of Christ village, just some trains with Santas, nutcrackers, and the usual Christmas stuff

I do~ I have a Frosty the Snowman train that I make a village for. My mom only lets me put up during the holiday season though... ><

[Appley Hooves 136]

My Mom's got one, but since we moved here and the living room is so small we only have a tiny tree and a few hanging things out every year.

[SparklingSquirrels 21,345]

Nah, I don't bother decorating for Christmas, or for any holiday really. I don't have anyone to celebrate with so I guess I just don't see the point.

But I've seen plenty of setups that look quite nice!

My mom has a set of buildings with snow on them, along with trees with snow.  Some of them light up; I think she painted many of them herself with acrylics.

Oh ok that fine

[Jedishy 3,548]

My mom does. She adds one or two new things each year. I might do the same when I have a house.

Look like you are getting right into it

I'm not sure if this counts, but before all my siblings and I went off to college, our mother would buy us snow globes yearly.  Now we have collections of them located arbitrarily throughout the house.

[Dreambiscuit 9,899]

I have a collection of buildings that my dad started when I was little. Now I'm the keeper of the keys, so to speak. I add one or two every year and I like to write the year I on the underside of the new buildings, to commemorate that Christmas. When I was younger I built up a raised berm around the miniature town and put a small battery-powered train on it, along with a mountain I made of Sculpey with a tunnel going through it. I added mini LED lights to the mountain and tunnel (white ones, tinted blue with magic marker for 'icy' effect) and the accent lighting was really pretty. Most of the homemade stuff like that got damaged when I moved so I just display the buildings on white batting now. It's still a lot of fun.

Turns out ma has St. Nicholas Square.  She didn't paint those, but she did buy some smaller, plaster-of-Paris buildings at a garage sale that she painted by hand.

Yes! I'm highly fascinated by trains. XD There's one train in there that's kind of bronze or whatever... I've had that one since the 3rd grade. It's my oldest one.

I did same thing but different train set 

[CandyCorn 428]

Here's a picture of the train btw:

It's a Frosty Lionel train. It doesn't really work anymore... and the tracks are a pain to put up. >< The reason it doesn't work is because we have pets.

[DixonTheAdversary 1,632]

My Grandmother has a ton of them that she collects, can't give a rough estimate of how many though.
