Christmas treasures to share!

My sweety hung the wreath for me today.
Come right in and visit awhile!

This little tree is just inside the front door next to the sidelight. I made the bead snowflakes several years ago. They are another chenille stem and bead project!

A past student gave me the candle holders. I don't remember what happened to the third taper, but a replacement IS on my list. The curio below was inherited from my husband's grandmother. It contains a bird figurine collection. Many were hers and a few were given to me by my sweety.
My mother crocheted this tree for me.
I love the wavy glass in this Stickley mirror. I usually leave the snowflake swag up until February.

The Santa's Sleigh sits atop the hutch that holds much of my depression glass and other mementos from family and friends.

The Polar Express Santa was also a gift from a student. The Polar Express is one of my favorite Christmas books. I haven't seen the movie yet. I'll try to show some of my kitchen stuff soon. I still need to take a few more photos.
Merry Christmas to all!
