Unwrapping Christmas

It is beginning to look wonderfully festive

around our home! Our family has had so

much fun decorating! I inherited from my

dad and grandmother a desire to use natural,

simple but elegant, 'finds' from the outdoors,

the woods, from creation.

The beautiful grapevine trees, Santa Clauses, and little houses that adorn our home are all hand-crafted by my sweet dad.

Our daugther certainly has a creative knack

for decorating and strategically
placing things in just the right spot!

I love the red with silver and

the beautiful and natural

greenery ties it all together.

The chandelier has been ornamented

with various finds around the house.

The mixes of white, gold and silver add such a nice variety....whimsical and fun.

Our sons spruced up the forgotten window boxes with beautiful,

natural greenery from our yard.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. Luke 2:10-12
Merry Christmas!
