New Year Wish

Just wanted to wish everyone a very happy and  healthy New Year!

Lucky Me!

 

I was thrilled beyond words when I found out I had won Jenn’s giveaway over at Rabbit Hill Primitives!  Couldn’t wait to tear into the package when it arrived but the paper was so pretty, I just wanted to admire it for awhile!

 

Isn’t he an adorable table top Santa with a sweet little tree?!  I just love him! 

I think I am going to have to leave him out and enjoy him for awhile before I put him away! Thank you Jenn!

Pinterest Idea

Here’s a fun and easy idea from Pinterest.  Winter snow scenes . This first one I made using a glass cloche.  I already had the little trees and the snow.  I used cotton for the base as it covers up the battery for the street light, and then sprinkled fake snow on top.  The little street light I bought at Walmart from their Christmas village décor.  It was so fun to do and the possibilities are endless as to the different scenes you could make.

AND…while at Walmart I found this container that looks like glass but it’s actually plastic for $7.97!  Yay!  AND… you can leave these “winter” scenes out after Christmas. 

Now go forth and let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Christmas Decorating

Did a little decorating.  Again, not knowing how Jasper was going to deal with the tree, I just put some snowflakes on and no swinging ornaments.

Turns out, he just loves to lay under the tree…

and look up at the lights!

Of course I had to have some gingerbread men!

Although he seems to be doing ok with the tree, I did notice “someone” had messed with the stockings!
