Wishniks' First Autumn, 1967

My Wishnik Trolls' first introduction to autumnal decorating, ca 1967. They are standing on the wooden console TV. Remember when you matched the wooden consoles of the TVs to the home decor? Ours were always Early American in maple. Yes, I still have the trolls. And maybe the basket. And maybe a bit of that wallpaper from a leftover roll. Perfect Autumnal Colors.

  1. HOW FUN. I NEVER HAD A TROLL. DID I MISS OUT ON THE FUN?

    GOODNIGHT EARLY. DANCING WITH THE STARS TONIGHT THEN TO BED EARLY. I DIDN'T SLEEP GOOD LAST NIGHT. I KEPT WAKING UP THINKING THERE WAS SOMEONE WALKING AROUND THE HOUSE. I SWEAR I COULD HEAR SOMEONE BREATHING IN THE DARKNESS OF THE NIGHT EVEN WITH THE NIGHTLIGHTS ON. HAVE YOU EVER HAD A NIGHT LIKE THAT?

  2. I had one of these wishniks - it had pink hair - must've been a spring or summer troll. This troll has graying hair, which season do I belong to?

  3. Oh those trolls!!! I only had a couple small ones. Oh and I had a medium size troll horse with a fluffy fur tail.

    I guess troll has a different meaning now...keep them away from the computer!

  5. i come from a fairly long line of let's say, individuals, lol, though some might say eccentrics. I think that's why I need to be creative every day, in some small way anyway. it's the way i was raised. : )
