‘Santa’s Workshop’
antas abide in every nook and cranny of Joan Eaton’s home in the Kingsbury Addition at Christmas. She loves to display all her Christmas treasures, many of
which are 50 to 80 years old, gifted or handed down to her by loved ones. Some of the lights on her tall Christmas tree “are from when I was a little girl,” she said. The icicles on the tree have been
in her family for 70 years. And she has the original boxes most of the decorations came in. We’re talking tradition here. Most of the Santas that Eaton so treasures represent more than a bit of family history.
