I love this card Jean sent!
First off I would have to say I am never done...up until the last second. Every year I claim to myself..I will start earlier. Every year I fail to do so...or so it seems. Actually is seems that Christmas comes earlier and earlier...as does my birthday(which unfortunately is looming in two days)..but that is another story. So it is safe to say you may have another week of me sharing things. So don't say I didn't warn ya!
Have you noticed that every store just about has a dollar section? I picked up that little canvas at Joanns. I can't paint...even paint by number.. so I certainly did not use it for its intended purpose. Now paper and glue I can do..so that is what the canvas got covered with.
I also wanted to share with you these a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e kitchen towels. They were waiting for me in the mail slot today! NO kidding...someone out there sent them just because...dare I say just because they like my blog! REALLY...she even said so in the beautiful Christmas card she sent. Miss. Jean in Virginia! I love my Cherry towels. THANK-YOU SOOOOO much! You can see the pretty card too...sitting there by my chalkboard. Merry Christmas to you too Jean! I wanted to show you all where I put my Jolly blocks. I have this tin shelf that started out cream, went black, and is now red. I set them on it. The rest of my pics are mostly snippets of more Christmas, my vintage Christmas aprons and they old "egg nog" bowl....which I was happy to see in last years "Romantic Homes". It originally came with mugs as well. Maybe someday I will run across them....regardless I love it. I found FAT SANTA last week for .99 at Goodwill. He makes me smile. Of course I had to share the rest of my Santa Boot collection. I pick them up here and there.
Last night I covered one of those dollar Target frames with polka dot paper and put one of my antique postcards in it. Tied some ribbon around it and it made for a cheap decoration. Tonight was Hunter's music assembly, we bravely ventured out into the cold. Our weather has been "brain freeze" weather.....brrrrr. I hope everyone is safe and sound and warm! Those flannel sheets never sounded so sweet! Night night! Cherry

Hi Cherry,
You can share pictures like that every single day!!!! I looked through them all then back through them all...and I LOVE everything. You have quite the knack for displaying things in such a pleasing way! LOVE that little snowman box (i'm sure you made it)!! That Santa above your chalkboard is WONDERFUL!
I bet the music assembly was fun. Glad you made it out in the freezing cold and yes, I too LOVE flannel sheets and soft, soft blankets.
Hi Cherry
I really enjoyed this post. Your house is a Christmas wonderland. I loved everything especially the soldiers.
Merry Christmas

you have so many beautiful things I cant even begin to pick a favorite! I love em all. I've never seen a bowl with a the New Years song on it--how cool is that?
Cherry, everything is great as usual. You have the neatest "stuff". I just love all your wonderful bargains. You do know how to shop. I am so glad you liked the cherry towels.
Enjoy.
Jean in Virginia
Those Jolly letters just are so cute! I love what you did with them! I will have to remember that...and of course I love the cherry towels, who wouldn't? :)
Carrie
Very festive post...love the old bowl!
I love your j.o.l.l.y. blocks...they look great!
Hi Cherry~
I love what you've done! The Target frame is adorable now! I also love the towels your blogger friend mailed you; they are so cute! :)
It sounds very cold where you are. It is the same here lately, which is actually nice~ but only until you have to go out into it. Which of course you do have to, eventually! :)
I hope you have a nice, warm night!
I am always AMAZED what you do with the simplest things!! Seeing your beauties makes me sad Christmas is in a week...I've always been ready for it to come by now but I want another couple weeks of this magical stuff. :)
Hi Cherry :)
I just finished catching up with you and WOW! You always amaze me with yiour creativity. The Jolly blocks are darling and so is the can can ;)
I love the vintage Santa Lynn sent you and the things you sent her were wonderful!
Merry Christmas sweet friend. May you stay warm through the winter and blessed all year :)
hugs,
rue
Cherry, your home looks so warm and inviting. I really do love to see all your pics of the things you've picked up and those things you've made. It's all just lovely! Have a wonderful Christmas (and birthday! mine was the 6th)!
You always have such cute stuff...what a creative gal you are!
Everything looks so festive!!

I especially like the little cup with the snowflakes in it. I just love love love your blog. Total eye candy every time.
Beautiful-in one word...
I love the little tin at the begining-so adorable!
You always make me homesick for my childhood. So many of those pictures bring back some of the best memories.
Debbie
Hey Cherry girl!!!! Thanks for your sweet comments. Wanted to let you know that red and white quilt is from Penneys...lovin' it...it is darker red than bright cherry red! It is heavy...nice on cold nights. Also I get all my scrap paper in tablets(sp?) from Joann's. We don't have much scrapbook store choice where I live. I think it is from the most recent holiday pack there. the vintage post cards or pictures are mostly from vintageholidaycrafts.com or they are old that I have had....but I think they are from there...there are a couple sites that I have happened upon that giveaway free images.....Love that. I just love your snowman on the red polka dot paper or you painted it. Love it.
Hey did you email me your address? I have something for you.
Blessings,
Debbie
I enjoy your blog! Your photos are lovely!
Jen
Your house is like a store!
I LOVE the flash card...er...winter, letter.....I am wanting to coping that idea. Thanks for the Christmas inspiration!
Merry Christmas
Gosh I love Red. Pam
I could never get tired of looking at your wonderful finds and creations! Merry Christmas!
Happy Belated Birthday!!! Hope it was a good one. Talk to you soon.
Hi Cherry -
just wondering - how do you get the papers to look so aged?
what do you use to age them?
Love all the beautiful Christmas decor! I'm off to read some more! :) Chris
I think your house has to be the most festive in the land! I LOVE it!
Merry Christmas,
Robin~♥
How awesome that you get to go to WDW! My hubby and I went on our honeymoon as well! We stayed at the pop century resort this time, and the bus system seemed so much quicker than on our honeymoon. This and the Hilton on property are the only 2 places I've stayed so I can't offer much advice on Hotels. I will say that we were on a dining plan that allowed us 1 sit down meal, 1 snack, and 1 counter service per day. That was the way to go because basically, you are cashless the whole time and there is no possible way to eat all of that food each day. We left there with 2 counter services and 1 sit down unused. We did make sure to make reservations for our sit down meals and we were so glad because everything was so crowded and booked. We loved doing the character breakfasts. I hope you guys have a great time!
I love the Jolly sign. I also love the colors in your blog design!
"Every year I claim to myself..I will start earlier. Every year I fail to do so..."
Hahahaha...sounds like a woman after my own heart. :-) Well, all of your holiday vignettes are just so beautiful I really don't know where to look first. I even love the hanging aprons...such a festive touch!
I love what you did with that canvas! SO CUTE and perfect. Absolutely perfect! You have such an eye for that. Missed you, Cherry!
Your photos are beautiful.
