It's beginning to look a lot....

.... like Christmas!

The decorating is done...

The shopping is almost done...

(one small thing yet to get!)

The cards are here

and the letter is written...

The wrapping hasn't begun...

 And I'm not sure if baking will be done this year...

BUT...

It's Christmas!!

Ornaments my daughter and I made are

wrapped and ready to be given...

For several years I bought a hand made Santa

from this woman at a local craft show.

She made them out of old quilts or blankets

 and vintage buttons, etc.

I love my Santas. 

Sadly, she isn't in this show anymore.

This year I found this metal tree for some of my

vintage ornaments!

I made our stockings last year...

so much fun!

Lots of handmade ornaments on our tree

with the yoyo garland I made last year!

 

 

Years ago I cross-stitched the Santas on my foyer table...

along with quilting the cathedral window table runner.

This Santa and snowman came from another craft show.

These are a few of my favorite things!

Merry Christmas!!
