As we celebrate the Season, I have many small scenes
around my home that remind me of family, friends
and the birth of the Saviour.
Here are few...
 |
| Christmas cards are addressed and mailed out today. |
 |
| A New Winter Wonderland scene in place. |
 |
| So happy I have this vintage piece in my kitchen. |
I have a collection of
Annalee dolls from my mother and
from TJ Maxx. Thank you very much.
I almost bought a cat doll this year that looked just like my "buddy" (cat).
He had a red St Nick hat on his head...but I resisted because heaven knows
I really don't need to add to anymore of my Christmas "stuff".

This is vintage abt 1990, my mom created this vignette upon
a sprayed styro-foam platform. |
 |
These dolls were purchased in the last three years.
Annalee dolls all have the same basic painted face design. |
 |
The Mr. & Mrs. Santa Claus are sitting chairs that my mom had collected.
She had an elaborate vignette at one time and some of these
toy props are from her collections. The two elves are new. |
 |
It has been a tradition with me to force narcissus (paper whites) bulbs
the day after Thanksgiving.
Here we are in week 3 of December, hoping these bloom by Christmas. |
 |
I love the smell of pine and when you have an artificial tree (heaven forbid),
I bring fresh cut pine boughs in.
This is in my entry of my home.

Merry Christmas! |
