The Lego Creator Winter Toy Shop is part of our annual Christmas decor!
When Treasures By Brenda recently reviewed The Best Lego Gift Ideas, I realized that I had never reviewed the Lego Winter Toy Shop set and explained how we use it every year during the holidays.
The snowy scene is the perfect winter design and there is nothing better
than a toy shop at Christmastime. Our whole family loves this Lego
set.
Our son built the #10249 set in 2019 and that was the first year we used it as our dining room table centerpiece for the holidays. It was such a hit with everyone, that I continue to display it in the center of our table for the holidays.
Our children are adults, but when our daughter was recently in town, they were both "playing" with the Lego figures in the set, discussing the Lego toys around the tree, and laughing at the poor skier that just can't seem to keep his balance sitting on my green table runner.
I personally love the carolers that are reminiscent of holiday Dickens Village Carolers.
We also add the 2019 Winter Gingerbread House (#40337) to our centerpiece display. I have a wide family table that needs a wider centerpiece. Plus, I like having more of the gingerbread house motif included. We selected the 2019 house to serve as a date "cornerstone" for the building year.

Lego Creator Winter Toy Shop Set #10199 or #10249
This toy shop Lego set is fabulous and makes an excellent holiday decoration. As stated above, we use it as our dining room centerpiece, but it would be lovely on any table top in any room.
There are at least 2 Lego Winter Toy Shop kits to consider. My son built the newer version (10249) for our dining room table. The older version (10199) has less pieces, but different toys. Plus, the building details are slightly different, notably the wreaths.
