Happy Friday!!


That must mean one thing---> It is Show and Tell at Kelli's Blog:) Yay!

This little cross stitch I am sharing with you , I made when I was 19--OHHH, I was so proud of it. I bring it out every Christmas.
It will be 20 years old next year:)

That's a darling little ornament. My daughter is 48 years old and one ornaments she always puts on her beautiful tree is one she made when she was in the 1st grade. I get the feeling it is her favorite one.

That is adorable. I have not done cross stitch in years (I don't seem to find the time or have the eyesight for it any more!) I love to see other people's Christmas Decor. Thanks for sharing yours.

I am blogging daily until Christmas Eve about my decor, traditions and food here in Northern Ireland.

Things we have made when we were younger are always special to keep and bring out ever year. I do the same thing.
