Wire Tree and Vintage Ornaments

I first saw this wire tree on Margos Junkin Journal blog and thought it was really cool to hold your vintage ornaments, I kinda thought it was old and I would never find one, shortly after that I saw one at a local antique mall and it said not for sale. So, I knew then you could probably find them and they probably aren't old. I looked on ebay and found a bunch and bought one!

Some of these I bought at a trift store some were my parents.

The Stockings Were Hung...

In the sunroom with care! We have no chimney!!

Ornament

I took this last year and added some effects to it.

I still didn't get out the Christmas decorations, we did manage to get some more lights for outside on the front porch. Last night when I went into the attic I straightened some things up, moved stuff around and threw stuff out. Now I am ready to get the Christmas stuff.

While Doing Your Christmas Cards

I recieved this e-mail and thought I would use it in my blog to reach more people.When you do your Christmas cards this year, take one card and send it to this address. If we pass this on and everyone sends one card, think of how many cards these wonderful special people who have sacrificed so much would get! When you are making out your Christmas card list this year, please include the following:

A Recovering American Soldier
c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue,NW
Washington,D.C. 20307-5001

If you want to, pass it on.

Door Decoration

I made this a couple of years ago from old childs ski's I found at a yard sale , painted them and screwed them together added greens and a snowman I already had.

Starting to Decorate

Josh took this photo of Stinker
Breanne took this one.
Stink, loves to climb in the wreath and swag box. I had some other greens laying on the floor after Dave put out the swags and he made himeself at home, sitting in side the nest we made him, Breanne took some first then when Josh and Whitney came he had to give it a try. Stink usually hisses at him.
