Comment on Vintage Sterling Silver Swirl Design Compass Locket by D. Rocus

I purchased this for myself for my birthday. I was a little afraid it would be bulky, but have found it’s not at all bulky. I wear it on a 24″ chain, and most of the time it sits under my shirt and you can’t even tell it’s there. I think this item would make a great gift, and there’s room on the back for a small engraving. It is quality silver craftmanship, and I just love it.

The locket looks nice. There is a smooth space on the back for a small engraving. A good hinge keeps it from accidentally coming open. The hinge looks a little weak though so I’ll try to avoid putting too much stress on it.

I’m a big Jimmy Stewart fan and this movie really portrays the Christmas spirit in its truest form. I remember seeing this movie years ago and had to have it for myself. I also enjoyed The Other Wise Man.

So I'll do each movie seperately. Though put out by the LDS church, these movies are simply Christian and have been enjoyed by other Christian Denominations for years.

Mr. Krueger's Christmas is Jimmy Stewart's last movie. The only exclusive LDS touch is that it's the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. I would give this movie about a 4.5 out of 5 stars because sometimes it lags, and if you're not a Christmas music buff, it can get boring. But, I always enjoyed it.

Nora's Christmas Gift is a wonderful story about an old woman who comes to the conclusion that the most important part of Christmas is to recieve Christ as her King. Again, the only exclusive LDS part is the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing traditional Christmas Carols. I loved this story, and would give it 5 out of 5 stars. It made me cry, just a warning.

The Story of the Other Wise Man. 3 stars for the animation. 4 for the story. The story is by Henry Van Dyke and has been a favorite of storytellers since it first came out. This is a nice rendition, though the animation just isn't that great.

The Nativity. 5 stars. As I remember, there is nothing really LDS about this, it's just basic right out of the Bible stuff. Beautiful music, Holy Land backdrop, the actors and actresses speak in native tongues for the area... I saw this at a basic Christmas gathering and no one had anything but great things to say about it, and while there were a few LDS church members, the rest weren't LDS at all. It was a nice prelude to exchanging gifts to make sure everyone knew what we were celebrating.

In all, this is a nice collection of movies. I'm glad that it was put out on DVD in a combination like this. Rating: 5 / 5

It should be noted that the DVD is put out by the Mormon Church – the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and as such, contains publicity for the Mormon church.

Comment on Wilton Push N Print Cookie Cutter Set by Rosie Tomyn

I just got this cookie cutter and am excited to use it. The disks come in and out very easily and the print comes out just enough that it will provide a nice outline for me to decorate the print with icing. =)

Comment on Christmas Gift Labels by M. Field

This gift labels are perfect for Christmas gifts, both large and small. They are self-adhesive, so no need for tape, and there are different sets with different Christmas symbols. Wonderful!

Comment on Waterford Crystal 12 Days of Christmas Flute 6th by Kirsty Hanvey

Exactly what I ordered
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I started the 12 Days of Christmas collection for my mom last year. This year I purchased this year’s (8th addition) and the 7th addition that I was missing. Amazon had by far the lowest price and with no shipping and tax it was not only the perfect gift but the best price. The products where well wrapped, were brand new in perfect condition and came in time for X-mas as promised on the shipping dates.

Comment on Peanuts Holiday Collection by Buddy2001

Buddy2001 — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 17:54:50 +0000

I just got the Holiday Collection with the three Peanuts Episodes and am happy with everything except for one thing. I cannot find out where on iTunes to download the songs. I can't seem to find the redeem feature on the site. Other than that I really like the set and it is nice to have the extra episodes with the DVD's. I so far have only watched one of the extras and that is the one about the magic. On the Halloween It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.

My only criticism is as I mentioned before the downloading of the songs from iTunes.
