I got the wreath made that I had in my mind. |
Merry Christmas! If you really want to know all the gory details of our recent past, go visit my yearbook post on our other blog, Happy Despite Them.
Pay no attention to how I look. I always am exhausted and badly in need of a haircut (which I got yesterday, thanks to Deirdre!) by Thanksgiving 😉
The crafting never stops. |
Bridget got this ready for me. |
O Holy Night. |
You can sing while lying down, even with someone sitting on top of you. |
It's a smaller tree than in the past because I basically have to take it down alone. |
Getting the star up there. |
No, really. |
Tonight it's all done. |
Stockings not quite all filled, and maybe next year I'll put names on them? |
Getting ready for Midnight Mass. |
See you on the other side!
May you be blessed with every blessing this night!
XOXO

A very Merry Christmas to the Lawlers!!! I loved both posts, and I have to inform you that I will probably steal Habou's quotes. I may or may not give her the credit.
Probably not. ;o)

That is a gorgeous wreath! Any making-of photos/details to follow?
Merry Christmas!

Um, no. I took no photos! I got the grapevine at Michael's, for which there is NO EXCUSE, as my property is overrun with grape vines. I could produce those wreaths on a large scale if I only thought of it while mowing.
Heat up glue gun.
Glue pine cones all around.
It makes me happy when I drive up to my house 😉
Glue ornaments.
Call it done.
