Here is my tree. It is still a work in progress-- will hold out for after Christmas sales to get it just right. I love the classical Christmas look, so I kept with that. We have special Hallmark ornaments and ones from Germany so I wanted to use all of it and tie it together.
This is our tree topper from Germany-- I love it and would love to collect some more wooden ornaments like this.
I made some fun rag garland this year. I used scraps of fabric I had around the house (I have tons since I sew a lot). I got the idea from my amazingly talented friend Erica.
I finally finished my family history pictue wall. I got all the frames from thrift stores, target clearance, and estate sales and painted them in dark orange, aqua and black, then I took various family photos from mine and Jason's families-- I love how it all came together and it is so fun to look at and tell the kids all about their grandparents and great-grandparents.
Fabric flowers. So these pics are a little blurry, but the best my camera would do. I have had fun lately experimenting with fabric flowers they are so fun and there are so many fun ways to wear them. I think I will have to try out some more very soon.
