merry christmas from our home ~~part 2

well

after posting that dreadful half-done garland

i needed to redeem that garland & show the finished product

glad i've gotten that all cleared up & out of the way

so we can move on...

i had high hopes of creating dozens of these

when in actuality there really is only about a few

& they aren't even complete

but...anyway...i took some glass ornaments

printed off a little smaller than wallet size image

added vintage mica & crystal glitter to the inside

& voila

had wanted to add a little white button at the top

but haven't gotten there yet.

little tip-you might wanna glue the pic to the ornament thingy at the top or your pic might just roll all around

that part , my friends, does require some tweezers & patience

maybe a spiked coffee too

being compulsive does have its rewards

because i can tell if someone has been

shall we say

peeking around in the gifts

so yesterday i asked that certain little someone

if she'd been peeking around

maybe even opened a carefully precisely wrapped anthro box

to which she replied with a very guilty little face

"which gift mama?"

don't ya love it when they really think they've got ya fooled?

madison's pink tree

in our upstairs hallway i've framed several pieces of the girls artwork over the years

traded out a few & added their christmas crafts

the ole' footprint for rudolph's face & hands for his antlers

priceless

savannah created this little nativity years ago

talk about a treasure....

sweet baby jesus....
