This review is from: Santa Fe Adobe: Folk Art Three-Dimensional Advent Calendar (Calendar)

"The first Spanish settlers came to northern New Mexico at the turn of the seventeenth century. Their intention was to establish a society that would blend the best of Spain with the best of the preexisting indigenous culture. The melding of the Spanish, Mexican, and Native American cultures produced what has come to be known as Santa Fe Style. Jaye Oliver has applied this unique sensibility to the creation of a delightful Advent calendar. Each of its twenty-four windows open to reveal a Southwestern Christmastime treat.

"With 24 tiny windows, this free-standing 3-D Advent calendar is a wonderful way to count down the days to Christmas. Introduce this charming tradition to your family with a Pomegranate folk art Advent calendar. Heavy paper stock pop-up calendar designed to last for years.

"Designed by Jaye Oliver and inspired by folk art, such as works exhibited at the Museum of International Folk Art, Museum of New Mexico, in Santa Fe. ISBN 0-7649-1959-8; size: 11 x 4 x 9 3/4"."--© Pomegranate
