These reindeer on my tree are part of my reindeer collection. The great thing about a seasonal collection is that itโs only out for part of the year. It gives you something to look forward to.
Some of the ornaments, like the Fitz and Floyd one below, have value as a collectible.
Others, like this ceramic one, have a different kind of value. Iโve reattached the antlers more than once on this sentimental piece.
Some, like this wooden one, are more arts and crafts than fine art.

Some, like this clear one, sparkle and reflect the multicolored lights.
Others, like this graceful leaper, are brushed with touches of gold.
Though I have quite a few reindeer on my tree, Iโm always looking for one more special piece.
I also like to display my small collection of plush reindeer. Can you find my cat, Motor, in this photo from my archives?
He found his happy spot. I hope you too find moments of joy over the holidays. ๐

These are beautiful. What a treat to put them on display each year!
Thanks, Sandy! They're little works of art.
True!
Oh my goodness Siobhan, I had to look long and hard for Motor. He must have really loved being surrounded by all of those plush reindeers. Your tree reindeer are really beautiful. Have you collected them yourself or do your loved ones know how much you love them and gift them to you?
Yes, Motor was super mellow so piling a few stuffed animals around him just made him happy. ๐ I found some of the reindeer myself and others were gifts.
These ornaments are so Christmas! ๐ Your cat is in reindeer heaven.
Yes, they are! Motor always found the most comfortable spots for a good nap. ๐บ
These are fabulous ! My collection is of Peace ornaments. Timely all year round.
Thanks, Bonnie Rae! Peace ornaments would be a great thing to collect. โฎ
Wonderful and precious collection of reindeer collection. Each has its own story, Iโm sure. Thank you for sharing with us.
Thanks, Amy! It has lots of sentimental value.

What a lovely idea to have a collection of reindeer for your tree! And your cat looks really cute curled up among the soft toys :)
Thanks, Sarah! I like having a collection that's only out for part of the year. My cat enjoyed it too. ๐บ
Lots of beauty and memories I am sure! I must admit I have never seen a reindeer in a Christmas tree before - and you have so many! Thank you for sharing them! A pat to little Motor, who seems to have found a comfortable place among the other softiies!
Thanks, Ann-Christine! There are lots of reindeer-themed decorations to buy around the holidays. I try not to look too often because I'll want too many more. Yes, Motor was comfy!

I LOVE your reindeer ornament collection! What a good idea for me to start one now that I have room for a tree again! Another blogger had some beautiful reindeer decorations for her Christmas scenes. Your kitty looks awful happy nestled among the toys :)
Thank you, Terri! It was fun to collect over the years. Hope you enjoy starting a collection too. :D Yes, Motor was a very happy kitty!
Nice ornaments and stuffed animals. Have a wonderful holiday.
