I'm happy to report that the Christmas shopping is done, the gifts are wrapped, and I am ready to enjoy the rest of the season. With the main part of the work done, I can now relax, and focus on the reason we celebrate this wondrous holiday, the greatest gift of all, Jesus.
I do have a few little things to share that I haven't shown you yet. Like this sweet little angel bunny. This is hand made by a lady one county over from us. I've had it several years, a gift from a sweet friend. Isn't she just the cutest little thing?
I edited this in PicMonkey, and added the snow. I love using that program to edit, but I'm not so good at it. It takes a really long time for the pictures to load for some reason.
I love this old vintage white bowl (below), that belonged to my MIL. I added some ornaments to it, then included it in the vignette on the breakfast table.
I saw this quick craft on Savvy Seasons blog. You buy these "spire" type ornaments at DT and hot glue them inside the glass candle holders, also from DT. Very inexpensive decoration. The only ornaments they had were gold, so I just spray painted mine red, since that was the color I wanted, and already had the paint. If you make some, you will need to use quite a bit of glue. I put it in the bottom, then all around the tip of the ornament so it would hold it in the position I wanted. I think they are really cute.
This photo shows two of them on the dining room table. The red works in well with the color scheme.
The sweet little reindeer below was given to me by a friend about 12 or more years ago. Her husband made him from scrap wood, and she painted the sweet facial features on him. I absolutely love this little fellow.
I hope you have enjoyed seeing a few of my favorite decorative items. Please join with me at these great parties:

Couldn't you just pinch those little cheeks? And look at that sweet mouth.

He's beginning to show a little wear, a few scuffs, but he's still a cutie!
That little reindeer is adorable!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you can slow down - wish I could join you! As for that reindeer, a few scuffs only make him better! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI luv it!!The table is beautiful.

I like those tall green glasses on the dinning table. Great job with decorating.
ReplyDeleteKathy,
ReplyDeleteThe bunny and the reindeer are darling. Love the faces and expressions!
Your bowl is wonderful, and filling it with bling makes for perfect eye candy! Love it on the table in a centerpiece. Lovely.
Kathy, love all of your sweet Christmas decor. The bunny and reindeer are precious and I love that old bowl! Thanks for sharing with 'Creating Christmas'.
