Christmas Home Decorations ~ The Shelf

Well, I am just a little behind in my posts

I am sure you thought I was long gone right about now!

Nope! I am here, I am just worn out. . .Yes, worn out

So much to do so little time.

I love this time of year, 

I love Christmas!

Why, oh why I get myself in such a "dither", I will never know.

I guess it is just me, and that is how it is. . 

My shopping is not done, my decorating has just been thrown together,

No baking has even been planned.

There was once a time in my life when I had it all put together.

By now, I could relax and enjoy. . .Oh, who am I kidding?

It has never been that way for me.

Ok, Ok, I will stop my whining and show you some of

My Christmas Home Decorations.

 I don't have a fireplace mantle.

So I use my shelf as my mantle. . .

I love decorating it.

You can see I have my two Santa and child pictures.

I love them so much, they remind me of my own children.

And the other two pictures belonged to my Aunt Carol. . 

I cherish these pictures too, they remind me of her.

 I just love the shelf decorated for Christmas. . 

Lots of pine and berries.  

Of course they are faux. . I love my faux!

 And the little birds are just the cutest.

I can almost hear them singing.

They are cute little "characters"

As you know I surrounded with "characters".

So the shelf and the little birds are all ready for celebrating.

I love to decorate, I just wish I had more time. . 

Since I have been absent from my little blog

I have realized I am really neglectful of Karie's Chic Creations.

Hopefully I will be able to spend more time with all of you.

Hugs, and I hope you will come back 

For more of my Christmas Decorating.

Next time it will be my Snowmen I will be showing.
