Okay, I'm hooked. A mystery you say? Hmmm...I see the letter R and the color red, but I'm not sure how that works into a series of five. This fabulous fellow looks rather St. Nicholas-esque...something to do with the holidays?

ReplyDeleteThanks, everyone! I realized after posting this that it was really an impossible conundrum without some major hints. Sorry for the teasing, but I still can't tell you what it is for quite yet. Please stay tuned... meanwhile I will be inspired by all of your delightful ideas & visions...
