Journey 341: Tis the Season

It’s been a busy day and an even busier evening. In between taking care of people, I continued decorating the house for Christmas. I love expressing my creativity this way. I’m not finished yet, but it will all get done. I needed a simple blog post tonight, as midnight is quickly approaching. 

Here is Christmas as it is appearing throughout the house. 

 

My little Norfolk pine in the bedroom gets decked out for Christmas. Love the new little colored lights this year. 

  

The vintage suitcase switched over to Christmas. The Merry Christmas postcard featuring Bob & Leta Moore is 71 years old!  
 

  

Santa mug collection.  
  
Vignette in my great aunt Roxie’s little red footstool, that I flipped upside down. 

  

  

Although my main tree is real, I’m scattering little artificial trees throughout the house this year. This one found a spot on a vintage chair. 

 

I swapped out a few items on the entry table to transition it to Christmas. 

   

The main tree, in process. I’ll finish it tomorrow as I have time. 

 

The two new ornaments for this year. The acorn, reminding me of my adventures during 2015, and those who accompanied me and those that I lost. 

And I made the cluster of hearts from the beautiful little ornaments that I purchased last month. I love the colors. 

   
This is what I love to do each evening before bed. Turn off the room lights and sit looking at the Christmas tree. Peace and joy fill me. It’s after midnight. I should get to bed. I have much to accomplish later today and more decorating to do. But for just a few moments more, this is where I want to be.
