Christmas On My Brain

Besides the zillions of other things on my mind, Christmas has moved it's way to the top of the list.

In less then 2 months we will be involved in the Christmas Show at Monticello.

So, I am on the look out for great items to bring to the show.

I'm also busy crafting!

Here is what my dining room floor looks like right now.

At least part of it!

I haven't even taken the time to unload my treasures from this week-end.

So, I'll show you some of the bigger items that couldn't fit inside the bags.

I got into a huge box of cork.

This is an item that comes in handy.

But, because there are so many I may have to find some great old jars and fill up a few.

This big squishy needlepoint pillow was another find.

I love this old tree stand, my #1 found.

Vintage Christmas, don't you just love it, especially when it comes in muted colors.

Isn't it wonderful!

I love the colors and the decal.

This is before it was cleaned  up.

I couldn't pass up this wonderful old base to a floor lamp.

It just had all the great things I enjoy, chippy, cream and cast iron.

Any creative uses for this?

I'd sure love to hear from you.

Then lastly, an old suitcase.

Underneath are a couple of projects from the previous week still waiting to be done.

There are enough projects here to keep me busy!

But alas, I have school, so I'm off to 1st grade.

Talk to you later!
