Welcome to “Show and Tell Friday!” Do you have something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, or a treasured collection. Look around your home for something to share; dig through those boxes in your closet if you have to! Share photos and the story that goes with your special item.
Today, I am going to share some of my favorite Christmas ornaments. I love birds, and have several on our tree, including this robin.
The girls and Benjamin each have "First Christmas" ornaments.
My email friend, Cathy sent me this beautiful homemade Victorian ornament.
And my friend, Lady Farmer made me these sweet acorns and oak leaves. They even have real acorn caps!
Lastly, since we are all on the computer right now, how about a "mouse surfing on a mouse" ornament! :0) Thank you for taking a look at my show and tell!

Hi Kelli!
ReplyDeleteYou were on my mind and I had a little time this evening, so I thought I would pop in for a visit. Your home looks so warm and beautiful (just as I knew it would!). I am going to try to make the Buckeye Browinies this week. I'm sure my boys will be thrilled! (They love the candy.)
Wishing you and your precious family a blessed Christmas!
Amy
Kelli - I've posted twice today and my name shows up on your list for awhile, then disappears. I had trouble with this the last time I posted also. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I go to the single post (not my full list, just this one single post), copy the perm link, then paste it into the box under my name on your page. It shows up, then vanishes a short time later. Thanks, Alice
