The series (see photos below) began in the summer of 2006 when Joyce designed the "Partridge in a Pear Tree Santa". Since then, she has introduced a "Woman with Two Turtle Doves" and now the "Chef with Three French Hens". When asked her timeframe for completing the series, Joyce explains that "introducing just one character per year would take far too long."

As the Twelve Days of Christmas series grows, it will be fun to watch how the collection will continue to evolve with the different characters in this timeless Christmas carol. The Chef has a wonderful personality that would add joy to any kitchen. He would be the perfect gift for your favorite chef.

We are all looking forward to see how Joyce interprets the Four Calling Birds and Five Gold Rings!
