Honorable Mentions

Sneaky Kevin Newell
The Skyways may be t' life for me,
But refuge none other than a Bunkhouse there be!
Decked for Yuletide season, all set to go,
Visitors’ll have a hardy yo-ho-ho!
The Christmas tree’s there, with a star on top,
We’ll celebrate all night – we’re not going to stop!
Milk n’ cookies are set out for later tonight,
When Santa comes down from his flight,
To add more presents under the tree,
And make this Yuletide season quite merry!
Bloody Wesley Xavier
'Twas the most festive time of year
When pirates spread the holiday cheer.
Wesley thought "I shall change my title to Jolly,
And decorate my bunkhouse with lights and holly."
He made it look so Christmasy,
Making sure to include a snowman and a Holiday Tree.
He left out a glass of milk and a cookie plate.
For Christmas he could not wait.
Wesley found it hard to go to bed,
With thoughts of Captain Claus filling his head.
When he awoke in the morn,
The cookies were gone and presents were found in the dorm.
They opened gifts and had some fun,
Consisting of, games, tales, and Yum.
Wesley and crew had a great feast,
And then spread cheer to every man, Troggy, and beast.
As they sailed across the skyways,
Wesley and crew shouted to all, "Happy Holidays!"
Golden Harmony Dove
During the holidays, I like to dress up and spend the time with my pets and companions. Here I am in my personalized bunk as Santa's secret helper. I set up my bunk especially for Santa with his special sitting chair, milk and cookies and the holiday theme of a snowy night, like the North Pole (so he doesn't feel homesick). I'm hoping he'll visit, as we'll be jolly partners! 

Happy Holidays from Golden Harmony Dove! 
Captain Lily Evans

Loyal Martin Xavier
Every Christmas morning I awaken in joy  excited to look upon the Christmas tree. Me and my family are gathered 

 With more happiness than Ratbeard with powers. When I look upon the Christmas tree I say to myself that this is definitely a pirate life for me!

Simple Floating Tips Using A Carved Podium

 The carved podium is a unique decoration dropped by  King Shemet Djeserit In Krokotopa or bought in the Pharaoh's Hoard Pack.  Back in 2009 when housing first came out I found these were the best thing ever for simple floating. The very first thing I ever made with these was my very first Holiday Tree. So I hope you enjoy these simple tips showing how to use this item.

 First thing to do is stack your Podiums, I'll use three for this demonstration though I have gone eight high before.  Once you have them stacked place what you would like to float on the top one, I used Tallow candles this time.  Now turn then top podium one turn and move it over to the side. Repeat for each podium until you have all podiums on size.


Now you have your set to keep going without repeating the first steps. All you have to do is move each podium to where you want next item, place the item on top and move it away.  Never turn the podiums again or you will have to start back at the beginning.  ( Never pick up only move away.)

 For different levels all you need to do is stack , place item and move. If your going eight high you will need to make the create scaffolding, this is to help you reach the top each time.   Hope this helps with simple floating. Remember this only floats items that can fit on top of the podium. The images below show show different looks and both my Holiday trees One for 2009 and 2012. Until next time , Happy House Decorating.

A Scalawag Christmas

Twas t' night before a scalawag Christmas, all through t' spiral, t' Ships were docked all guns were peaceful.


T' huts and hideouts were decorated with care, All hopin' Santa Frog would soon be thar.
No drink'n and fight'n t' pirates battles were lessor, so presents could be wrapped t' give all t' treaaye.

When out in t' skyways arose such a clatter,I grab up me cutlass t' see what's da matter. Down t' t' docks I ran in a dash, starboard t' me ship, I sailed in a flash.

Through t' skyway on windlanes ,to find all t' excitement. Landin' at Jonah Town only t' find a miniature raft, and eight tiny Noelephants. With a red suited Cap'in, smilin' in t' fog , I knew in a moment it must be Santa frog .

More static than lightin' bats his movements came,then he shouted, callin' each Noelephant by name!Now Boochbeard! now Gandry! now, Catbeard and Deacon!On Jack! On Mordekai! on Vadima and Morgan! Over t' top o' Jonah town t' Flotsam Skyway! Now sail away! sail away! sail away all!
