Hello World! How art thou? We are busy getting ready for dance class demonstrations, school concerts, and class parties. Such a busy time. And, I haven’t finished my shopping. I really wanted to be done by this time of the month. Off to shopping I go today. Anyhoo, want to see our mantel? Hope you finger doesn’t cramp up from scrolling through so many pictures.
The big ‘ole fat stockings were made by Betty Lou aka Mom.
The Nutcracker I’ve had for years as well as the little green trees.
All the greenery, bead bits and pretties were purchased last year at Hobby Lobby.
All ornaments are plastic. I took the tops off and shoved them on little bits of greenery to hold their placement.

Hope you’ve enjoyed my Christmas Mantel. Off to shopping.
