Fabulous Finds Friday: Carolling Doll Family Giveaway
One of my favourite things about Christmas is Christmas music.
There’s something kinda magical and calming about it to me. Especially all the classics.
Christmas music always brings back memories of my childhood, and simpler times.
It brings back the smell of special Christmas cookies; the taste of hot chocolate after being outside playing in the snow; and the innocent wonder of believing in Santa Claus.
Wait a second, I still believe in Santa Claus. 🙂
For the above reasons and many more John and I both love Christmas music, and that most definitely includes choirs and carollers.
With the Christmas season virtually upon us, for this first FFF giveaway I thought it only fitting to share something Christmassy.
So I’ll be sending this fabulous vintage carolling doll family to a new home.
I love the period costumes, and all the little details.
I found them in these boxes at the thrift store, and even though they fit I can’t say for sure that these are the original boxes.
The man and woman are about 10″ tall, and have matching clothing.
I have no idea how old these are, but I’m guess probably from the 70s/80s.
He really seems to be into it. lol.
The boy and girl are about 8″ tall, and also have matching clothing.
The boy is wearing a colorful coat, and the girl has a fabulous matching shawl.
Love the colors.
Aren’t they sweet?
The fun thing about this carolling doll family is that you can imagine them singing any song you want.
I hear “Joy to the World”.
What song do you hear them singing?
Tell me when you enter below.

Good choice Marthaia. I love the version when Bing Crosby sings a duet with David Bowie. So great. Good luck!
I am a TRV subscriber and love seeing what you come up with next on your blog. And, a give away? Yeah! What beautiful dolls! They remind me of when I was little and my siblings and I would go caroling around our neighborhood. You can feel the chill in the air! My favorite carol has always been Away in a Manger, even if it’s a little off key 😉 Thank you and have a wonderful Christmas!
That’s a fabulous carol, and one that I haven’t heard in a while. Good luck Cindy!
Christmas blessings to you, Tuula! I have a set of carolers that would love to mingle with your set and go caroling atop my fireplace mantle! I hear them singing “Joy To The World” as all hearts and minds turn to the joy of Jesus’ birth so long ago.
Wonderful song choice Kathy. Good luck!
Love your blog. I’ve been subscribed for quite a while. Enjoy all the wonder bargains you find at thrift stores. Can’t wait to get me new home so can change my style to a vintage style farmhouse feel. Here’s hoping to win a beautiful set of carolers.
Thanks so much Brenda! I wish you good luck!
ANGELSWE HAVE HEARD ON HIGH for me but if to keep all the children happy we would hear the carolers singing JINGLE BELLS.
Both songs are awesome choices Nancy. Good luck!
I went last night to a little theatre production of ‘A Christmas Carol ‘ that my daughter and 6 yr old grandson was in ( he played Tiny Tim!) And between scenes they had carolers in various parts of the theatre and they were dressed like the dolls! One of my favorites they preformed was ‘Here We Come a Wassailing ‘
That must have been so fun to watch Michele. That’s not a carol I hear too often, but it’s a good one. I wish you luck!
I’ve been a subscriber for quite awhile now and I’m so glad I am! Love your site and your ideas! I think they are singing Deck the Halls!
Thanks so much Karen! That’s such a cheerful and fun carol. I wish you luck!
Hi Tuula!
