Merry Christmas..........

There are a few things I love about this time of year, like spending time with my family, enjoying the millions of twinkling lights my husband puts up, and my personal favorite, decorating the tree. This year we decided on pink, white and silver. I also made a few ornaments using bits and pieces from the amazing blog giveaway that I won in September from Annie,Fannie & Abigail



I made the apple ornament on the left using, paper doilies and a silver leaf from AF&A. The one on the right is made with vintage dictionary pages and letters from the gift box I received.



The ornament on the top left was made using crepe paper, buttons and flowers... all gifts from AF&A. The one on the bottom right hand-side was made using vintage sheet music and letters from AF&A



The bird ornament is one of my favorites, I picked up it up during the summer at a flea market for 75 cents!



The rest of the ornaments are a collection of ones that my best friend gave me, some I picked up at the ReGifting Store, some at estate sales, a few I have used in years past and one my oldest daughter made for me. My tree feels personal to me... and I love it!
