Christmas Around the House




I thought I would share some random Christmas pictures with you.

For many years my sisters and I would gather at my home for an ornament party.
We each would bring the supplies and an idea to make an ornament.
My kitchen always ended up a mess, but that was the evidence of creativity. 


The ornament above and below are a few of many ornaments my little sister painted.



We made lots of snowmen.



The wreath on my office door.


My office tree did not change much.
Vintage paper chain.
Ornaments I made last year with vintage paper and bells.





The topper is a vintage hat and a black bow.
 



In the hall entrance I have hung a few of my favorite things.
Snow angels, I have two large ones in the house and 5 little ones that hang on the white trees.
 I try to keep them out all winter, in Buffalo that means they can usually stay until Valentines day.


This is a floral basket I have in my kitchen on the basement door.  
I add different accent color flowers for each season and change the ribbon color.

Basically I am ready for Christmas, I was up late into the night wrapping presents so I would not be 
so rushed today after work.
Mr. M. is off today and I know he will be a great help picking things to do off my list.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas or Holiday that you celebrate.

Most of all, enjoy the ones you are with!
