55cgas 29 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I can see multiple snowmen, multiple soldiers, multiple elves, but I don't know what to think of multiple Santa's or Mrs. Clause's. With my display I always figured that there's only 1 Santa and 1 Mrs. Clause and it may look funny with multiples. What do you all think of multiple Santa's/Mrs. Clause's in a display??

Franchise_24 75 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) No big deal. I have 4 I think. One in a sleigh on the roof, the poloron mechanical one, and 2 blow molds of him. Edited November 25, 2013 by Franchise_24 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Billings North Pole 0 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I have a bunch of Santa's in my display, but the main one is an animated life size that go's center in my display. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lilly Strat 0 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 I'm more in line with the original post. I only have 1 Santa (in sleigh with reindeer) and Mrs in my front yard, as I treat the whole front yard as one large scene. In the back yard I do have multiple santas, one of each type of extra Santa blowmold I have (Empire 4 foot mold, the 3 foot Santa face mold, Poloron santa & sleigh, etc...). The back yard ends up being a bunch of smaller scenes each with its own Santa, or I look at the back yard as an overall theme of different types/views of Santa. But even then I only have one of each type of Santa in the back yard, no repeats of a particular type. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mwalz 110 Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Ok as long as they aren't grouped together in one area, I have one blow mold Santa but i probably won't even put him out, not sure yet. Lets say you have 5 Santas, you won't want them all grouped together, i personally think that's a little weird but everyone decorates their own way! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Isaiah S. 1 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 I usually pair each santa with a mrs. claus or snowman or elf, and set them at varying parts of the yard. Overcrowding one character can be extremely overwhelming and they wont all get seen or appreciated. So, yeah my advice is to pair your multiple santa or mrs. clause or snowman with different characters, that make sense, and avoid over crowding. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think you shouldn't worry about it too much. I remember someone on here who collected Santas. I think he had an all Santa display. (I can't remember who it was!) There was a house that I used to go visit every year that had a Santa sleigh and 9 reindeer on all 4 sides of his house. There was also a Mr./Mrs. Claus and a couple other Santas.

Elaine F 13 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 There's only one Santa, and there's only one Jesus. So, outside, I only display one Santa and one Mrs. I also only display one baby Jesus (However, inside I have a small nativity, and several small Santa's! Go figure. ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I try to do my display as a couple different scenes.. A Nativity, frosty and family, A Choir, North Pole and a cartoon area.. I like everything to have a place and everything in its place, lol. I need my blow-mold to be standing straight, if they are crooked I have to fix them, I guess i'm a little anal sometimes, lol... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cars06 37 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) This year I'll have 5 or 6 (cant remember lol) of the dancing Santa molds that Empire & General Foam made/make. They dance around my north pole sign and I call them pole dancers lol I think folks should do what they want, how they want to do it. There are no rules to displaying blowmolds. But I do see the difference in a display with blowmolds and a display of blowmolds : ) Truth is if you have a nativity and Santa, or any snowmen. Your yard isnt one scene is it?? LOL Edited November 26, 2013 by cars06 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
robcat 13 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 I do my yard in scenes, too. BUT, I have about 15 Santas scattered about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
basketballmail2 10 Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 I only have one Santa, but I always think to myself if I would have more than one, I would try to place them, so that you don't really see them all at once. You know so wherever you stand you only see one Santa at any given time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Elaine F 13 Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Maybe in yards with multiple Santa's only one is the REAL Santa, and the others are the "mall" Santa's! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
