Our Christmas Mantel

I am so slow this year, getting motivated to decorate for Christmas. Not sure what my problem is.....I finally starting hauling out everything. Even my husband got into the act. He created a very large Christmas tree design outside on our rock turret by the front porch. I will show it off soon... I started with our mantel in the family room.

               Stay warm everyone!
I also wanted to show off an early Christmas present my husband bought me. I have a 27" monitor....he thought I could use another 27" monitor since I do so much creative work on my pc
He's a keeper.....

Here's both of them...

 I will be showing more.  I also look forward to seeing your creations. We still need a new camera.  Maybe Santa will get us one.

  8. Linda I can't tell you which one I like better, the snow or the fire! They both just make me smile. I love the mantel. It feels good doesn't it to get things done. I just saw the other day where Susan at Between Naps On The Porch got two and sits them side by side. She did a great post on it, how she drags from one screen to the next. Probably too complicated for me.

  9. Hi Linda, Thanks for stopping by my blog and thanks especially for the tip on turning off word verification. I didn't even know it was on, but it's gone now! I see you're looking for a new camera. Me too. My Canon 3300 takes great outdoor shots but indoors ... not so much. Too grainy and I think I've tried every setting known to man to get clearer shots. Let me know if you have any camera suggestions. Thanks much! I'm now following you!
