Kraków's incredible Christmas ornament industry was one of the reasons I wanted to return. Those of you who saw my gallery on these ornaments http://www.pbase.com/helenpb/christmas_ornaments will understand why I wanted to buy some more of them. I think I came home with around 20 new pieces but unfortunately, no Christmas tree to photograph them on :-(. And FWIW, these aren't even the most elaborate of their ornaments, more their "everyday" collection. More pictures to come, when I get some time to do a proper gallery of this return visit.

This particular store is called Calik http://www.calik.pl where I have bought the majority of our ornaments in Poland, but I managed to find quite a few nice ones elsewhere as well.

Sheila, this one is for you!
