My collection of antique Christmas ornaments in a HUGE apocrathy jar I got at Home Goods last year.
A string of tiny rice lights inside makes this truly enchanting!
Hi Everyone~
Hi Everyone~
So happy to finally be spending some time with my blogging buddies! Time is passing so quickly and it is hard to believe we are already in the "Christmas countdown".
Now that I have finally found a moment to share, here are a few of my most recent decorations for Christmas.
MINIMAL was the name of the game for me this year.

Luke 2:11-
"for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."
Isaiah 9:6 "For a child will be born to us, And the government will rest on His shoulders, And His name wil be called Wonderful Councelor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace."
(I LOVE how Isaiah prophesized about Jesus coming LONG before He was even born!)
Merry Christmas!

Hi Ruth, I love your Christmas touches around your home. The apothocary jars are wonderful with the vintage ornaments inside. I love that you added the lights. I bet that is gorgeous.
Looking forward to your redos. I am going to redesign 2 rooms as well after Christmas. I have the redo bug. I get it every year. LOL!!
I like your simple idea too. Sometimes less is more.
Hope you have a very special Christmas and all the best in the new year.
hugs, Celestina Marie
Beautiful post Ru, Wishing you and yours a very Blessed Christmas!xox,Stacy
Thanks for visiting with me, chickee!! I sooooo love new people looking in. I also wonder how so many people don't believe in the savior but the day will come, of that I am SURE!! Can't wait to see the remodeling of your rooms, sweetpea,
Smooches,

Dearest Holly Ruth....I love your statue with pearls...I posted my bronze lady with bling this week, too...
Rice lights? Never heard of them...are they smaller than the little white Christmas lights? I want to put lights on the headboard in my bedroom and maybe I need the Rice lights instead of the small C. lights...I will look>
Your Christmas cottage looks absolutely LOVELY. I really love your apothocary jars...I try to buy all I can find..in all sizes. They are harder to find in thrift stores now..every one is buying them.
Can't wait to see your NEW rooms...
and I wish you the Merriest Christmas, EVER....
love, bj
