Christmas 2013 - Still its Christmas of the Past (All About Christmas)

The word “Christmas” means “Mass of Christ,” later shortened to “Christ-Mass.” 

But there’s much more to the fascinating history of Christmas! Where did the Christmas tree originate, why are Christmas candles important, etc.?

I have not used this for a long time but occasionally I use to take a quick look at my face before I go out.  Well I was thinking of a makeover for Christmas and here it is. What do you think? The picture was taken with lights.

And this without lights

Santa's shoes filled with goodies for the kiddos who come by.

Acrylic ornaments.  Doesn't it look lovely.

My Eiffel tower Christmas tree without light.

With dim lights.

My door decoration and its not so clear.  Sorry about it.

A 1978 sofa set.  I don have the heart to bring in another new one. So all this years we make do of it and it is still in wonderful condition.

I used an old Horlicks bottle to create this lamp shade.  I also inserted in Christmas baubles insdie with light to create a magic.  What do you think????

Christmas 2011 - Part 2

Life is too short, and " It's never too late to be what you might have been."

My blog is a reflection of what I love in my life so I hope you will be kind to follow me on my journey.  Thank you

My very own creation.  Cut glass wine bottle with Christmas running light all jammed in a bottle and a little crochet blanket over the top to make it look like a lamp shade

I don have to tell you where this part of the house is.

My beautiful dolls.

The veranda all lighted up like a fairy garden

My hallway

The closer look

The outside 

My fiber glass tea light holder.  Someone just broke it.  Its a 14 year old item. 

I am already missing it.

Home blessing tea light holder

Enchanted by my own home.
