They are now showing an elaborate swan with flameless mercury glass candle for CIJ, along the lines of last years beautiful reindeer with ombre flameless candle.  Why, I have to ask, Kringle Express why did you choose a swan instead of another Christmas icon for this decoration?  I LOVE my reindeer from last year on my dining room table, but a swan is not Christmas???  An elaborate snowman with frosty ombre candle would have been lovely, but a swan???

@just wonder  Seven swans a-swimming? I've seen Valerie present swans for the winter season as well.

Many people have quite a few snowmen.  Maybe the swan is an alternative.

Thought your question was interesting so Goggled it, I also had no idea what 7 swans a swimming in the song represented. If you're  interested take a look too @just wonder.

I think the swan looks beautiful and elegant and, if you chose the champagne, you could use it for more than just Christmas.

 

I have too much "stuff" now, but otherwise I'd be interested.

Jane said that, as a former dancer, and with two daughters as dancers, she loves the swans.  She also said you should consider buying two because together they make the shape of a heart.

 

But, honestly, it's hard to imagine a swan swimming around with a pillar candle - lit - on its back.
