2010 Christmas season first.

This is the first Christmas decoration grouping I have done this year.
Since I am not hosting Thanksgiving at my home this year, I thought
I would get a jump on all the decorating I do. When I got home from
work tonight I put this together.

These little card holders were given to me by my dear friend
Camille Leavitt, a couple of years ago. I like them so much I
keep them up all year and just change the cards I have them
hold. They usually are Vintage cards.
These two Reindeer were purchased here locally, a couple of years ago,
and I bought one and wanted the other one at the shop. My daughter
ask me what I wanted for Christmas, and I suggested she get me the other one.



This buffet in my dining room is a family heirloom. It was in my husbands
family for many generations. Some of the lead is missing on the sides, but
I love it anyway. I painted the details a long time ago on the bottom drawer.

    very pretty! i feel like i just got my fall decorations finished, now i have to be thinking about the Christmas ones soon! :)

    your buffet is breathtakingly beautiful! we inherited one from my hubby's grandparents, which i love, too, even with all the dings and scratches, i love it because it is a family heirloom and it brings back fond memories for him. it's not necessarily my style, but it meant so much for him to have it, so i just MAKE it work! :)
