Snowy Santa Food Truck Light-Up Decoration - Red & White

This light-up decoration sets Santa at the serving hatch of a little red food truck, parked on a bank of sparkling snow beside a frosted fir tree. Under a red and white striped awning he leans on the counter to hand a parcel to a small visitor in a red hat and blue coat, while the shelves behind him hold a gold star, a red and white ball and wrapped gifts. The truck has the upright cab and ribbed panels of an old-fashioned van, finished in bright red with white detail, and when the light is on a warm glow fills the hatch and the whole scene comes to life. It is 7cm high, 10cm wide and 7cm deep, a small piece with plenty to look at.

At this size it fits neatly wherever a little Christmas cheer is welcome: a mantelpiece, a windowsill, a bookshelf, the hall table or a bedside cabinet. The glow is at its best once the afternoons draw in, catching the eye from across a dim room on a winter evening. As a Christmas gift it is easy to wrap and easy to love, and it is the sort of decoration a household looks forward to unpacking each year when the tree goes up.

It sits flat on its broad snowy base, so it needs no hook or wall and stays steady on a shelf or windowsill. Batteries are not included, so have some ready before the decorations come out. Care is simple: dust it gently with a soft dry cloth, keep it somewhere dry, and take the batteries out before you pack it away in January so it is ready to glow again next Christmas. We like to set it at eye level with the lit hatch facing the room, perhaps beside a sprig of greenery, and the little scene will greet everyone who comes through the door.
