Christmas Treats

Tree top star

 

A star or an angel at the top of your Christmas tree?

Mine is an angel, but it is still yet to be found as it is at the bottom of the Christmas ornament box.

 

Paperwhites

 

 

My friends have paperwhites instead of poinsettias. 

What do you have?

 

 

 

Red riding hood

Santa's little helper or an elf in disguise?

 

 

Documents under glass

 

Have you written your letter to Santa? Or are you Santa? 

 

 

Lace ornaments

 

Handmade lace ornaments that I bought but my friend does not make them anymore. Darn it. I have these in a bowl on the dining table in Paris that is the extent of Christmas decorations in our apartment that is rented over the holidays.

 

 

Music box

An old wind up music piece that I bought years ago at the brocante. It is still one of my favorite pieces.

Okay, I gotta get a moving I still have Christmas mostly in a box and that is just not going to cut it when Chelsea, Martin, Sacha, and Gabriel come home next week. 

I dread putting the Christmas tree lights on the tree.

Really dread doing them until their up.

  1. Such sweet decorations! Baked Christmas cookies with neighbor kids yesterday. The topper on my vintage barbed wire tree is a hand carved Mexican angel that I found in a Little Lending Library last year

    Usually an angel, but this year, it happens to be a star.
    Both! Paperwhites and poinsettias.

    I have beautiful white Amaryllis ‘Alfresco’ that actually have a fragrance. The bulbs are of outstanding quality this year, each bulb having 3 or more stalks with 3/4 blooms per stalk. And a Christmas cactus, pictured on my IG post, that has been covered up in blooms. It will, however, probably be past its prime by Christmas day. I gave up having a tree many years ago; with two cats in the house at that time, they were highly attracted to the glitter. Will look forward to seeing your Christmas decor.

  7. Glad to know that someone else hates putting on the lights on the tree! I too must hurry and decorate the house before the adult children come home and think something is wrong with me. Put on the carols and go, girl!

  8. No poinsettias for me Amaryllis and paperwhites. I miss you!
