CHRISTMAS!

Let the decorating begin...

 I need a few more Christmas balls for this tree.

I made two...

one is so tall I am not sure
where it will end up.

 

When finished this tree will be in the center of my dining table.

A shelf in my kitchen filled with silver shakers, plates and such.

My mantle...now white from it's summer painting. 

The wreath's made on a 10 cent form I bought at my favorite sale, put on by the Macon Historical Society each year. 

They have the BIG sale and then a few weeks later they have a half price sale...I could still be there digging through all that glorious junk, but someone has to decorate my house.

Borrowed this idea from a blog. I need a little more bow practice.

A peek at the mantle just as I began painting it this past summer...this makes me feel good to see it, because it's proof that I do get some projects finished. Well, sort of...I want to paint the brick fireplace next...that will be some job!

More mantle...want a new fireplace cover also. Or, at least to paint the one I have...tires me to think about all that I want to do.

Here's my new curtains...painter's drop clothes. 

I like them, but think I'll be adding some bling to them sometime.

So, that's it. Got lots more work to do before ALL my family comes for our Christmas get-together. It will be done, but I just might be too. I really can't wait...I have the craziest bunch of cousins showing up here in about two weeks...FUN!
