I'm trying to come to terms with Christmas coming so soon I love Christmas but each year it feels like it's coming faster and faster. I need to get busy my Christmas cards need to go out December 01st I'm still making them. We did get our outdoor lights up a couple of weekends ago so I happy am about that. I know the rest will get done as the days go by.
I found this postcard in my husbands parents stuff it's 155 - Manoir St-Castin, Lac Beaport, Quebec. I like old postcards like this especial winter scenes.
This is a Christmas window display I did this year it has a mid century modern feel to it.
The first picture is a snow globe a friend gave me a few years ago it always make me think of the song "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town". The next picture top left I found a couple of weeks ago it was perfect for my husband it being a fishing Santa. The 3 Santa's next to him are plastic and on skies I'm not sure if they are vintage or not. The stocking I got from my grandparents stuff and since I had a Santa theme going I threw in the Wooden Christmas tea boxes with a moon shape Santa face.
This Christmas paperweight is signed Festive Bouquet Caithness Scotland 10/250.
It's from the large group I received this summer.
This Fire King mug was a chance find as we had a few minutes to stop at a second hand store we hadn't been to in a long time.
My husband found this Porcelain vase by Wade made in Ireland this morning at the flea market and gave it to me.
I found this English Yeoman the picture behind him is from a Elkes Biscuit Limited tin made in Great Britain.
I think the definition for Yeoman in this case would be a servant in a royal or noble household, ranking between a sergeant and a groom or a squire and a page.
