BITS MORE CHRISTMAS


my Charlie Brown tree

Morning Primfolk,   hope this morning finds you bright eyed and bushy tailed......after some of you enjoyed a long weekend...........Very cold here this morning, the temp really dipped down but I`m warm and cozy in the house enjoying my coffee...........Last night decided to do a little more Christmas decorating........so many boxes of goodies,  really takes me days to get the house looking  the way I like it,  so I take my time making Christmas magic.... ........ I put my skinny little tree in the livingroom,  I do love this Charlie Brown  tree,  has grapevine and pinecones wrapped around it, makes me happy just looking at it all lite up,   more little Christmas displays here and there,  still have more to put out but my bed was calling me so this is all I put out last night....... Enjoy the day.........Blessings Francine.

PINECONE LOVE


OLD PINECONE TREASURES

Happy Tuesday.............nice and mild here the last couple of days, snow is melting, oh no!!!! Would like the snow to stay, looks so pretty and Christmasy.........Still doing a little decorating............but one of my old antique treasures are these beautiful glass pinecone tree ornaments............love them so, keep them out all year long in this jar, can`t bare to put them away..........I know, silly ole me...........I`ve collected the pinecones for many years now, but I do not find them anymore and if I do see some at antique stores they want a good price,  there are the new fake imposters but I don`t buy those, oh no............I used to find them at Rummage sales, Thrift stores for a few cents, some were gifts from family..........now the price is many dollars if you find any.............I don`t hang them on the tree anymore for two years ago one fell and broke, boo hoo!!!!!......so I just keep them safe tucked in the old canning jar where I enjoy my old beautiful old pinecones............Wishing you all a wonderful day............Prim Blessings Francine.
