--We're helping a friend map out what will be the "Hudson River" in her 2012 Christmas putz village--that's when we were reminded of this great photo from a past Christmas mantle by Antoinette Stockenberg--we believe this is the 2009 mantle. Isn't this just magical! The waterfall truly looks real as does the smokey fog on the trees.
