From their hands and imagination come the distinctive One of A Kind Santas, which have come to be recognized by avid collectors for the unique and distinctive look that identifies them as a 'Just Us Creations'.

Helen is a gifted artist who began her sculpting career in 1993.

She has taken classes throughout the US, in Canada and in Europe and continues to grow and nurture her creative spirit. She is a member of the American

Each individually hand sculpted Santa evokes the true spirit of Christmas by bringing a smile and touching your heart. Each gentle face radiates with character - exuding warmth, kindness and benevolence. The eyes twinkle with a knowing look that confirms that there is indeed, an underlying joy, humor and goodness in life. If you have met Helen on one of her many signing tours, you will readily recognize that each of her creations is a reflection of her own personality and carries a little piece of her soul. That is what truly makes them stand out in the Santa World.

The beards are of luxurious Tibetan lamb and the robes are rich velvets or tapestry. Helen sculpts each face individually using the German clay, Cernit giving it the detail and character that brings it to life. Gary, the other half of the 'Just Us' team, builds all of the armatures and bodies and makes the clothing, which Helen then beautifully and artistically embellishes. Gary also is head of the Shipping Department and Administrative Services.
