You do not have to be the royal queen to have the Honor Guard defending your castle entrance! Bertie and Malcolm Nutcracker are the first decorations out of the Christmas closet each year! Found at Sam’s Club a while back they are wheeled out on a hand truck as they have solid wood bodies! Beautifully detailed with jeweled halberds they greet us coming and going and lend a royal aspect to our festivities. Find some nutcrackers to guard your own castle! They come in all shapes and sizes! Stay tuned for their nutcracker offspring standing watch on the fireplace mantel!
