~~Mosaic/Macro Monday~~

The tree is decorated and the lights are aglow.  
Still savoring the wonder of this Holy Season.


It seems like a long time ago now but every time I hang this and other ornaments that Ron and I have made out of porcelain I recall the joy I had in making them. They were gifts to family and friends.  To me they are still treasures of the wonderful Christmases past!  They instill in me the hope of Christmases to come.

  16. You certainly created some pretty ornaments, Cathy. I have no talents in that creative, crafty area! LOL Your mosaic turned out lovely,too. I love the color of your border in between the photos and the use of the antique blurred edge on all the pictures. :-) I sure hope I get done with my decor soon. I don't relish the thought of putting it away any time soon!!! I appreciate your stopping by for a visit once again. ~ Sue
