21 days
More wreathes!
I need more... I need more!
I've sorta' put a different twist to an
old idea.
The panels on my little cabinet can be removed
so
I slid them out and covered with some
stenciled aluminum foil.
I tried going through some paper I already had but nothing suited me so
try this..try that..
I just used a very light hand and spray painted the aluminum foil.
I slid my spider plants underneath the cabinet.
All my plants from the porch were moved to the front room where we put our big tree up at;
I've been racking my brain where I was going with them all.
Here's a start.
More ground cedar along with a few other Christmasy stuff.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There wasn't too much to this one.
Old Chicken Wire rolled into a Christmas Tree shape.
More spray paint.
A simple bow.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I like to pull this little Vintage Box/Purse at
Christmas.
I picked this up at my favorite place to shop
Larry's Variety.
When we opened it up at the register
it contained some
old ornaments;
Larry said," Awh..just take 'em."
So far, I've never taken them out; I just open the box at Christmas time.
I thank you so much if you've stopped by for a visit.
Merry Christmas!

22 days
Oh my..my Christmas Countdown is getting confusing.
Yesterday, I started my countdown at 23 days,
just now I heard the announcer on the radio say,
"It's 22 days until Christmas.
I have gone to the calendar and counted.
Note..I was a blonde child.
Well... getting my Christmas on.....
1. I've been getting my funky junk style on the move.
one old chippy board
+
one old window sheer
+
Yes..an old wheel
+
Add some greenery ,
old chipped ornaments
and
candles
Voila!!
2. Make a couple of wreathes from ground cedar.
The above link will take you to an old post about finding
ground cedar & making wreathes.
3. I went through the old junk drawer to find some old canning rings and lids.
I had some that I was looking for the rusty ones I had painted.
I poured some liguid potpourri into a small glass candle holder,
wrapped some cedar around those
and
added a small pine cone to carry the fragrance.
I snugged those all around the house.
4. I found an old broke lantern behind the building;
You know it..just keep adding...add a little more.
Putting some red berries
&
a pine cone.
5. Last but not least, I snugged primitive Santa on the steps.
That's it!
I'm done for this day.
Where's my cup of coffee!
BE BLESSED!

Christmas Countdown
I am on the Christmas countdown folks.
1. Put away pumpkin, scarecrows & Jack-o-lanterns.
2. Change out curtains.
3. Hang at least one small wreathe.
4. Exchange Fall Garden Flag for Christmas Flag.
There's a damp nip to the air
&
the sky has been gray all day.
I think I'm heading in for a cup O' coffee.
I think I'll mark this one off the calendar.
As always
BE BLESSED!
