I am not done....dont' get me wrong. After a 27+ year marriage and now the divorce, I find I don't have that much stuff! So, I put out what I have and I really want to find some more things.....so here is what I have so far!
I had to post this guy first. I HEART this guy! He is my most favorite Christmas decoration.....I love him. He is made from all natural things. Real wool for his pants and sweater, rabbit fur for his scarf, and I LOVE his little sleigh he is sitting in! This pic does not do this Santa justice. I love him. ** Please double click on images to enlarge them. This one will be worth it**
Our tree. I like it, but no matter what I think of, and the ideas I have....it always turns out to be "an old lady tree". Well, I guess I am an old lady. I love this tree and I'm old!! Ha! Really, I think it turned out nice. I like it a lot!!
I found my Grandma's 'Tatted' decorations this year. I have cherished these things for.ev.er.!
My Grandma tatted. She tatted doilies, she tatted hankerchiefs, and she tatted Christmas decorations. I loved my Grandma. Every year I would get a Christmas card with one or two of her tatted decorations. Over the years while she was alive, I accumulated many of these ornaments. I decided that this year...I was going to hightlight her homemade ornaments. I.love.them. I didnt' realize that I had them until 2 days ago!! Made me SO happy!
Another tatted treasure from my Grandma.
I have some other decorations around, but after posting and thinking about my Grandmas things, it really doesn't seem important.
I hope you all have a great time decorating for the Holidays! I lost myself for a few years, but I have finally found my old self!! I love God and I love Christmas!!
More to come.....
