    Home Depot recall

    Home Depot Recalls Festive Holiday Figurines
    Figurines Recalled Due To Excessive Levels Of Lead Paint

    Consumers Can Contact Home Depot at 800-394-2064


    The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced the voluntary recall of several holiday figurines sold at Home Depot stores.

    The CPSC said the recall involving approximately 64,000 Chinese-made figurines was initiated because the products' surface paint contains excessive levels of lead paint.

    The recalled figurines were manufactured by Creative Design of Hong Kong. They include:


    Holiday Bear Door Greeter: SKU number 894-825
    Snowman with "Let it Snow" Sign": SKU number 894-893
    Three Snowmen with "Joy" Sign: SKU number 898-964
    Snowman Votive Holder: SKU 967-467

    The figurines were sold exclusively at Home Depot stores from October through November for between $10 and $20.

    The commission said consumers should immediately stop using the figurines and return them to any Home Depot store for a full refund.



    Consumers with questions can contact Home Depot at 800-394-2064 or visit the Home Depot Web site at www.homedepot.com.
