First Christmas Collection: Red Truck in Unexpected Places

This Christmas season, I'm launching a new collection of unique and creative holiday décor featuring the iconic red truck. But don't expect to see this classic vehicle parked in front of a cozy farmhouse or winding country road. Instead of the usual rural scenes, I'm taking it to downtown New York City, downtown Chicago, the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Colosseum in Rome, the Reichstag in Germany, Greece with the famous Greek structures in the background, and country Tuscan scenes in Italy!

​Why the Red Truck
The red truck is a classic Christmas symbol. It evokes images of snow-covered roads, cozy cabins, and family gatherings. But I wanted to see what would happen if I took the red truck out of its usual rural setting and put it in some of the most iconic cities in the world.

I know what you're thinking: "Red trucks don't belong in those places!" But that's the whole point. Art doesn't have to make sense to be beautiful. And what's more festive than a red truck delivering Christmas cheer to all corners of the globe? 

Why I Find This Idea Unique and Creative
The red truck is typically associated with rural scenes. It's a symbol of simple pleasures and family traditions. But by putting the red truck in unexpected places, I'm challenging people to think about Christmas in a new way.

Here's a closer look at some of the pieces in my collection:
