If you double click on the picture, maybe you can read the words on the little quilt the little girl is holding. It says, "You can never have too many quilts." I got it from a friend's yard sale last year.
Being housebound has certainly kept me from buying more Christmas decorations this year, but the week before all the Vertigo incidents started, I was in Big Lots and just had to have this!
The red birds move their wings and 'sing' "We Wish You A Merry Christmas". They are activated by sound, and everyone that comes into my den will walk right near them! I can hardly wait for someone to come and get surprised! The two crocheted doilies stacked up were made by my aunt many years ago. I think they make a perfect base for the red birds.
My house is still a wreck, but I'm pleased with my progress. Now I need my son to come lift big boxes of pretty things down from top closet shelves. I've decided not to put up the big tree in the sunroom this year; just a little one in the living room and another in the den will be enough.
Guess I'll go see what else I can reach in the closets. I'm sure there several somethings!

Looking good! (Ans I think the whole photo is a touch crooked, not the quilt.) But do be careful getting things out of storage - I do NOT want to read about another trip you made to the hospital!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour house looks super festive!!! Love your cute tree!
ReplyDeleteHa! You're way ahead of me, with not one indoor Christmas decoration out yet. Hubby has the big star above the barn doors lit plus one small tree in the side yard. It will probably be another week or so before the indoor things come out of hiding, though much stitching is going on! Be careful reaching far into those closets.
ReplyDeleteYou have a good start on Christmas decorating! Have fun, you have a month to get it done.
ReplyDeleteYou are making the most of your house bound time. I haven't done anything but plug the Alpine trees in the solarium into their remote box so I can turn them on and off from in the house. You are doing well. Love the little songbirds.
ReplyDeleteYour comment about the Victrola made me think about yesterday with my oldest son visiting. He says vinyl records are making a comeback. He and his wife have bought a record player and they took home my old vinyl records, and about 30 from his grandma's house next door.
I hope you won't need to be housebound much longer. You have things to do! :)
I just love that Santa wall hanging, and the red birds are beautiful. (I have a few red birds myself.) You have me rethinking my less is more Christmas. Anyway, have fun and be careful, too.
