Here are a few of our ornaments!

Here are a few of our beloved ornaments! I will share more on Saturday!



This is Vera the Mouse! I love this ornament. The girls picked her out when they were about 12 and 10. She's a cutie!


There was a craft village not too far from our house. There was a man that made ornaments on his lathe and this is one of them! What craftsmanship!


This pinecone ornament is one of 3 I got from my grandparents collection. They gave John and I all their ornaments when we first got married and we have treasured them for 30 yrs.!


The handmade ornament was a gift from a friend when we lived in NJ. It is from the Victorian era. We had a Victorian house at the time but it will always be on our tree even if we don't have a victorian-it is just so pretty!


This beautiful red heart was a purchase I made a few years ago. I love the deep red color!

Well that will give you a little taste of what is to come! Sorry I don't have time for more it is just such a busy time of year. I'll post more on Saturday when I have more time. Hope everyone is enjoying their holiday season!!

  1. I love how each ornament has a story behind it. I guess that's what makes decorating a tree so much fun. It's full of memories.
