A Few Christmas Decorations Revamped
















I had a lot of fun going through my boxes of Christmas decorations. Although i have mostly traditional Christmas colors i knew that could be changed with just some paint , ribbon, and a pink imagination. haha.....










I wanted to have a pink, pastel green, cream and white Christmas this year, so i drug out the decor and got busy painting .. Now i know not to do everyone of the traditional colors i have just in case i want to go back some day.. Most of these ornaments are some i bought at yard sales and such and are not my treasured decorations from years past. The ones i have here are some heavy wire, and plaster or some material like it that i painted.. They were heavy with gold paint and glitter so i got some spray paint went outside and painted them. I had a few old Christmas balls that had seen their better day, but were still very functional, so i took some rose petals and glued on the balls and what a delight... I will post one of the ones i have finished so far and more later as i finish up some that i wanted to do differently. Happy decorating everyone.. Have fun...

A few things for Christmas







I was given a few sweet toys that i will use on or under my tree this year.. I was given two , three wheel bicycles and one toy baby stroller. These are vintage looking, but not sure if they are. I also dressed a wire dress form with lace and pink and jewels, now Mrs. Santa can go out on the town for a Christmas party..
I also love these Pink Chickens and adorable little bunnies.. Since i have real chickens and bunnies i just had to have these for some sweet decor.
