I found the first silhouette figure at a thrift store and started from there. This is only part of the figures that I have, but I really like them. There are a couple other random pieces in curio. Hope you enjoy
Mrstyndall, Beautiful. :-)
Another case of an older post that I'm seeing for the first time, thanks to another CW user (MarmorealMaiden) giving it a love.

Over thirty years ago, Department 56 began as part of Bachman's, a premiere retail florist in Minneapolis. Bachman's used a numbering system to identify each of its departments. The number assigned to wholesale gift imports division was, you guessed it, 56.
1976
The foundation of Department 56 took shape with the introduction of six charming, lighted, ceramic buildings. These six premiere items were the beginnings of The Original Snow Village®.
