It's the most wonderful time of the year! The classic Christmas carol also applies to the world of small scale miniatures where holiday magic awaits us in many tiny forms. There could be so many treasures awaiting under the tree this year. Perhaps a romantic seaside cottage, a tiny dollhouse for your doll to call their own, teddy bears, holiday treats and maybe even a magical unicorn!

And who doesn't remember a holiday or two as being particularly special with favorite foods, toys or sentimental moments attached?

John Allard of Allard Design Studios, recalls his very favorite gift received as a child as the astronaut action figure Major Matt Mason and his Moon Crawler while his favorite holiday goodies include chocolate chip cookie bars and eggnog.
