Hello Friends,
I am so glad you stopped by today. Here are my First of the Month pics .starting off with my kitchen table decor. This idea for a magical snow globe theme came together as I collected cute ornaments form the GW thrift store,during the last few visits.I used recycled food jars & most of the bottle brush trees I already had. At first ,I was going to paint the jar lids ,but I started to like the open look better. The snow is plastic flakes that are sold in a bag, to decorate things like miniature Christmas villages. I added the candles and I was enchanted by the magical effect.
I already had this vintage little snow guy on hand .

I hope your Christmas Season is Merry & Bright ! I will leave you with this wonderful Bible verse about God's gift to us.

John 3:16

ReplyDeleteGood morning to Myrna,
ReplyDeleteWow! What a tour! I love the little gnome with the doll which I think is Pinocchio right? At the little cute girl, that made me smile. I just hung the same ornament on the tree yesterday! I am totally smitten with those Lalaloppsy Dolls (I think that's what they call them). I bought my first two a few weeks ago!
Your home is cozy and warm and the front yard is beautiful.
What a merry time of the year, once again.
Blessings and love flow all around the world.

ReplyDeleteDropping by from Mandarin Orange mOnday!
P.S.May I ask, how did you make the snow in the jars?
ReplyDeleteYour table setting is magical Myrna. Looks a lot like Christmas where you are!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to attend a Christmas "do" like the one with the banjo player and others musicians. That looks like a lot of fun! I do love the sunset shots, the Christmas decor and the beautiful creamer set you got in the giveaway. I'm sure you will enjoy all the lead up to Christmas.
ReplyDeleteMyrna, I enjoyed seeing all your photos. Your decorations are really pretty and it was nice to see all the seasonal decorations elsewhere too. That Christmas celebration sounds like it was a lot of fun! :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos as always Myrna! I adore all your little globes, so darling and you've got me all inspired. What did you use for the snow at the bottom? It looks like coconut :) You lucky, how fun that must have been to go the historic farm and see all the decor and festivities.
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays!
lovely colors of Christmas--they even match with the sky.:p
ReplyDeleteCalling by today as another Skywatch Friday participant, I love sunsets. :)
ReplyDeleteYou've been a busy girl. I love the little snow globes. So cute. The singing carols must have been so much fun. Pretty pictures.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea those snow globes are, in fact your whole post has so many wonderful Christmassy shots it's difficult to choose a favourite.
