Making Merry

Chas · November 29, 2016 ·

My most favorite time of the year is here… It’s here in all it’s splendor. 
Moments of thankfulness
Red
Green
Twinkle lights
Quiet 
Christmas Trees
Hopes for snowy days
Presents 
Evenings with only the light of the tree
Holiday making
Gosh… I LOVE IT!
This year is no different. I began my Christmas decorating right before my birthday, Nov 6th. So I could enjoy my tree… this year, TREES! on my actual birth-day.
I’ve added touches here and there since then, but the main things were up early. 
Bessie the suburban gets adorned for the season as well with a wreath and some garland on the luggage rack! 
These are a few of my favorite things. 
For several years I have been wanting to have a smallish second tree in the kitchen area. I was given this little skinny tree and it is a perfect fit! 
I decided to go with colored lights for a different look. Then the decorations were ones that were a bit more ‘rustic’. Wooden, outdoorsy, and red burlap bows. 
This is Leon. Shannon made him for me and he sits on my windowsill above the sink. So as I am washing dishes he is there to make me smile. 
It really is the most wonderful time of the year.
