Memory Lane

I am beginning to plan how I will decorate for Christmas this year, so I thought that I would look thru my " Christmas Past" photo's.  I am amazed at how much the house has changed over the years!


This area is now the "small" dining room....

I loved making these "book" tree's







I made this tree and glitter houses a couple of years ago...

The big house on the right is one of those that comes unassembled, I think at HL, anyway, I made it for my Mother about 15 years ago and gave it to her for Christmas.

This is a doily garland that has glittered chip board letters glued on to spell out Christmas.
 Hope you have enjoyed going down memory lane with me.

    I would love to have Christmas at your house. You decorate so romantic and I love romantic. The dollhouse is like my daughter's dollhouse I put together too. I make gifts each year for the little doll in the dollhouse even though my daughter is 20 years old now. Christmas time is my favorite holiday. take care, Darlene

    Penny!! Beautiful! Beautiful! BEAUTIFUL!!!
    I am finally in gear for Christmas . I started taking down Halloween and Fall yesterday , hope to finish today and start decorating the Living Room. Temps here will be out of the 30' and 40's next week and back up into the high 50's so Joe and I hope to be able to do the outside of the house on Monday when it will be a bit warmer. Does it get cold where you live?
    Hugs,

    So beautiful Penny ! Looking forward to seeing what you do this year. If I don't get my entry finished (still peeling off wallpaper) there won't be much happening in the way of decorating here.
