Holiday Vignettes and a Big Thank You!


Like I said in a prior post,
I am minimizing decorations this year.
I promised to show a few vignettes I placed around the house,
so without further adieu ...
Here's my conservatory all decked out

 A forest of bottle brush trees
 a dusting of snow and rounds out with a snowman. 
Our white Deer lays on a layer of snow
 surrounded by vintage ornaments
and baubles on the mantel.  
 Pinecones and cinnamon sticks fill a
wooden bowl on the kitchen table.
Smells sooo good each time I walk in there.
 Frosty holds a candle on one side,
while vintage silver ornaments
shimmer on the other.
A sign sits in an old window that couldn't be more apropos.
A grouping of Snowmen welcome visitors in the foyer.


I was so excited to win a giveaway from Meri at imagimeris .
She made two gorgeous Wreaths and I was lucky enough to win one!
It arrived in perfect shape and just so beautiful! 
So many things to look at and find
full of glorious vintage ornaments
each time I look at it I find something new!
see what I mean!!!
Thank you so much Meri, you did an amazing job!
I've hung it in my kitchen, it's the first thing you see.
Thank you Meri!

  1. Oh I like how it looks against the green, very merry and bright. I'm so happy it made it to you safely, and I hope it brings you many years of happiness just seeing it. I try to think of all the families that the ornaments used to belong to, and how they lovingly decorated their trees every year.

    Happy Holidays,
    Meri

  2. Found you back at Maleviks Showdown for Saturday! (you know me from my Mysteries blog as Jeannette StG) - how is your painting going? You still do that?
    Anyway, a merry Christmas to you! My decorations are the bare minimum compared to yours:)
