~Christmas Cookies~

I just wanted to share some photos of all the cookies,

 I've been making for Christmas!

Cute sugar snowmen!!

I cut out fondant the shape of the cookies.

I painted the snowmen family with sterling pearl sugar and gels. 

I had a lot of fun creating them!!

I made Lemon Pistachio Wreath cookies.

It was a Martha Stewart recipe.

Thumbprint and Snowballs!!

More sugar cookies with sprinkles!!

Love Christmas Time!!

~Joys of Christmas 2017~

Christmas is here and jumping 

into the spirit of the holiday upon us.

Making cookies and decorating the house.

Celebrating the season in our garden.

Stan and I made Christmas topiaries this year with succulents.

Inside we hung a stained glass window in our living room,

 my dad made.

The stockings I made when the kids were little.

I created this sweet snowmen couple out of

 vintage salt and pepper shakers.

Looking forward to the holiday celebrations ahead!

~Fall Tablescape~

I wanted to share with you photos of our Fall Tablescape 

that was inspired by my vintage china.

I love using old china.

With pink roses in antique gold rimmed glasses,

 it adds that touch of romance. 

Candles lit

 add to the lighting.

White pumpkins at every placesetting.

Seeded eucalyptus is used for the center of the table runner.

 A rose adds to the antique silverware.

A pretty linen table runner

 I bought from Williams Sonoma.

A simple yet elegant table for

 Fall!
