Holly Happy Days! Decking the Halls

The tree in our living room done in Blue and White.

Tick tock says the clock - - -
Christmas is almost here.
Hurry, Scurry - - -
Things to do - to make things merry & bright.

• Deck the Halls (finished)

• Trim the trees (finished)

Our wonderful nutcracker collection on display in the living room.

The mantel made merry with a few Santa from Sir Knights collection.

When a tree is just too much - a small bowl of vintage ornament along with a pink Santa does the trick to bring Christmas into our bedroom.

Even our Northwoods apartment in the basement is decked out for the holidays with friendly bears and moose.

A small tree just right for my studio - with ornaments that allow for Genghis' redecorating at whim.

The tree in the Library has no lights - made festive with tags of book titles we have enjoyed.

Pastel Pink roses on tree in Kitchen - to match my Tea Rose Dishes.

A long view across the table to the wall which Sir Knight built for me to hold my kitchen stuff.
As you can see I do like plenty of stuff. My table set with my holly dishes which I use only during the week or so before Christmas. On Christmas Day I use my Tea Rose dishes ( which I have more of) with the matching Christmas serving pieces.

A close up of my teapot shelf, with Frosty and Santa taking center stage with a nice Candy treat.

I collect Snowmen while Sir Knight is the Santa collector. I like snowmen because I can leave them out longer and they make me smile all winter.

My buffet all decked out for the holidays.

• Address the cards (finished)

• Send out the packages (finally finished)

• Bake the cookies

• Wrap the presents

(Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggg! I cant wrap them if I haven’t even finished them.)

Come on get busy there is more to do -

Christmas will be here in 9 more nights.


Hello everyone,

Just thought I’d share a bit of my holiday madness with all of you. I hope you have all your holiday preparations in order.

The life of a procrastinator is especially harried at this time of the year. I really did mean to start these little gift projects earlier, but true to form here I am running around like the proverbial chicken with its head cut off trying to finish things up.

Which explains my being MIA here in blogland. So please my dear friends forgive a poor unorganized procrastinator like me. Have pity on me for my scarcity of posts and lack of visits to your wonderful blogs.

One day I do hope to be more organized - hopefully in this life but if not - the next will have to do.


Hugs,
Penny
