If you have ever been to Kitchen Kettle Village during the holidays, you have seen our various holiday decorations. It typically takes a little over a week to decorate the entire Village. Many people contribute, which adds to our cozy family-friendly feel. Year after year, we have guests ask us about our carolers by the Bake Shop. How are they made? Where can I buy them? So here’s the story… they were purchased about 20 years ago and sadly the vendor no longer exists. It’s ok though, we can walk you through the step by step process to make your own carolers.
Let’s get started:
8. Next, grab your hat and scarf. Nail the hat onto the top of your caroler. This will also help secure the hair.
9. Secure their “hands”. We opted to have ours looking like they are in the prayer position or holding their song sheets.
10. Place them. Like I mentioned before, ours are on steps (we made a riser stand to resemble a choir). If you have a porch, you could simply place them on your stairs or lining your walkway. Get creative!
Our Kitchen Kettle Village Carolers
Have fun with this project, make them your own. The quirkier the better. They make a charming, rustic, whimsical Christmas decoration and they’ll be a huge hit. Send us pictures of your finished carolers. We’d love to see them and share on Facebook & Instagram!
After 23 years at Kitchen Kettle Village, Phil & Stephanie Garnett will be hanging up their pottery wheel and ending their time at the Village. Their shop will remain open though the end of October 2021. In March of 2022, the shop will reopen under new ownership.
