It's Christmastime!!

WOW!!! Time sure does fly I haven't made a post since Thanksgiving!!! I had a BIG weekend craft show and orders from my website so I've been keeping really busy. I'm looking so forward to some down time with my family. I wanted to share a few of my Favorite Christmas things. It will be time to take them all down in about a week and I'm not looking forward to it . I LOVE the warm coziness at Christmas!!!  Warning this blog post will be mostly pictures so I hope you enjoy them!!!

This IS the reason for the season!!! The birth of our Lord!!!

  22. Hi Dana,
    Your things are so pretty and unique! Were you at Holiday Fair in Greenville, by any chance? How many shows do you do and which ones?
