More is better ?

In clothes dressing with accessories less is better(some say) but I think for Christmas more is better around my house. Usually every room in my house has Christmas decorations even my bathrooms.

I told a Christmas story the other day about when I was a child we got one thing for Christmas, except the year I was about 4 1/2 I got a doll and a doll buggy. I have a picture of me my rich cousin from St Louis and my brother under my grandparents children tree we cut down back in Grandpa's woods.
My Aunt Lou always brought me Marilou's hand me downs and I loved it because she always had beautiful clothes. In this picture I had on an Easter bonnet  that was in my hand me down box. I was always so happy to see my Aunt & Uncle and cousin visit. I was thinking why would they leave their beautiful new house in the city and drive their new Cadillac over the woods  and across the state line to our house in the country?


Here is a little teapot cup & saucer I ordered a couple years ago from Victorian Trading Company

I decorated my cloche with a few little animals, the little white lamb a very special little boy made it for me

I have been working on putting bottle brush trees in jars turned upside down and came across this toile pencil box and well just stuck a tree in it. I am also making a few altered art Christmas cards for special people in my life. Some people just don't get it, I mean the home made cards etc. A friend seen some and just died laughing ( she's just not with it) couldn't understand why anyone would want them. I had to explain the era of re purpose LOL. I gave her a lesson on altered art, She still laughed LOL

Here is one of  4 of my gold glitter church's I bought at Pier One after Christmas I think last year maybe year before
