May you enjoy all the blessings in your life and find peace and joy being with family and friends.
I want to thank each and everyone of you for sharing your hearts and cherish friendship with me this past year. |

| These sweet little birds were gifted to me by my friend Diana for Christmas. They are so sweet and I love their fun feet! |
 |
| Thanks Diana they make me smile. |
 |
| Some of my little family of birds have flown to the back of my stove in the kitchen. |
 |
| I just love this sweet little couple. |
 |
| This sweet little family is adorable. Not sure why but these birds just make me smile every time I see them. |
 |
| This guy Mr. Kringle Frost was hand made and gifted to me by a dear friend in blogland. He also has a cute bird friend and owl friend. It was not planned but it seems like a lot of my decor this year is bird themed! |
 |
| Some of you asked about the ornaments I hung on my lamps this year. I could not remember where I got them I have had them for so long. I do want to share with you these would be pretty easy to make. |
 |
| She cut the star pattern out of a corrugated piece of cardboard box. You can see the corrugated lines on the top of the star. You probably would not even have to use a corrugated box. Flat pieces of box would work too. Great way to recycle packing boxes from this time of year. |
 |
| I am showing you the back of the star to see how easy peasy this is out of a piece of box. Then she hooked a piece of wire to hang them. |
 |
| Then she just took buttons, pieces of lace and made a little joy banner and attached them to the star. I think these would be pretty easy to make. I might think about making these next year to put on packages. |
 |
| Hope all of you are enjoying this last week leading to Christmas Day. I am finished and just enjoying listening to Christmas music and taking in all the beautiful lights and decor for Christmas. Enjoy. Hugs, Kris |
 |
| I put fresh green garland on the picket fence and archway and gate. I like to support the Boy Scouts and a little guy in our neighborhood sold me the beautiful garland. |
 |
| I also added greens to the flower boxes with lights. |
 |
| My two bedroom condo with a yard and garage bigger than the house lol! is now decorated on the outside for Christmas this year. This time of year comes and goes so quickly. I am trying to enjoy every minute. Have a great weekend. Hugs, Kris |
 |
| Got some chalk paint and painted everything white. We also were going to have to do a change up of the TV to over the fireplace to make the room work for both a living room and dining room. |
 |
| The TV is now over the Fireplace. I chalked painted the cabinet and then distressed it a little to match all the chippy in the room |
 |
| I made the bay window area a new dining area with my $40 dining set from FB Market Place. We can look out the big bay window when dining. |
 |
 |
| Moved my angels and candles to this bay window that use to be on top of the TV armoire. |
 |
| This is my Christmas centerpiece for the new table. Little candle votives inside these sparkle angels and then the old ceiling light fixture made into a candle holder. |
 |
| Now I have a dining area off in the corner of the living room area. |
 |
| My comfy RA couture couch is angled now to face the TV over the fireplace mantel. |
 |
| My farmhouse window has stayed put! Love that window. |
 |
| Terry has a new power recliner in the corner that he absolutely loves. I was able to sell both of the other recliners so that was a blessing. They were not power so we had to pull them away from the wall and into the middle of the room to recliner to watch TV. This recliner for Terry is so much better. He pushes a button and the chair reclines without moving it away from the wall. He loves his cup holders too. |
 |
| I want to say Thank you to my blogging friend Debbie for making me these cute fairies for my tree. |
 |
| They are so adorable. Thank you Deb. |
 |
| This had a very dark frame and I white washed it to have it be seen easier from the front of the house. I love all the glass ornaments and vintage pieces she uses to make her framed trees. |
 |
| Of course it is over cast and no sunshine to try and get a good picture. Plus the shadows were giving me grief! Trust me this looks really pretty on my front door. I will have my outside decor to show you this week. Have a great Sunday and beautiful start to the new week. Hugs, Kris |
First things first I want to thank all of you for sharing your acts of kindness.  |
| What on earth is happening here??? I will show you what this is all about hopefully in the next few days. Have a great weekend. Hugs, Kris |
 |
| Here is the faux fireplace mantel and mirror and insert all decorated for Christmas. |
 |
| I put pretty greens on the fireplace insert. Candles inside for pretty candle light at night. |
 |
| My mirror and top of the mantel. Greens, candles, sparkly trees and German ornaments. |
 |
| The little sparkle trees along with my candles sitting inside the vintage ceiling light fixture. |
 |
| Wreaths and stars adorn the lamps. |
 |
| I found these pretty German white ornaments embellished with pearls at HomeGoods. I wish I could have found more. They are so pretty. |
 |
| Love the sparkle of the Christmas tree at night. |
 |
| My then sings my soul and sweet angel gifted to me last year from a blogging friend Cil. Added it to this wreath and greens and some hearts. |
 |
| My sweet angels and candles with greens above the TV armoire. |
 |
| My tree full of gifted angels through the years and sparkly ornaments. |
|
| Hope you all are having fun getting out all your special decorations to create more memories this holiday season. This time of year goes so quickly so I wish all of you enjoyment every day as we head down to Christmas. Happy Decorating, baking, gift giving and love. Kris |
