| Many of us have been busy decorating house and home. We have at last decorated our tree with a few of our favourite things. I'll share a few with you and hope you will share some of your favourites too!
Birds 
and butterflies
Bows (yes Chelone, real ribbon is hard to find!)
A dove of peace
A primitive angel
Colourful balls for the 12 days of Christmas...only two here:
Put it all together with gifts and you get this:
But the real feeling of the season will only come when everyone arrives! |

| Merry Christmas Marie! I enjoyed a closeup of your beautiful ornaments. I got a kick out of the holstein cow. He reminds me of the border that I have in my computer room that is that type of folk artish. Michelle |

| Delightful seeing the meaningful ornaments! A few more from our house: A Christmas donkey. (There's a sheep, a polar bear, and more...) Clay doves all around This bicycle appeared many times. Several times when a bike was a Christmas gift, later when a boyfriend was dismissed but with mixed feelings: "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle". |
