Here are some of decorations:
The first is right behind my work station. This is also the window that I have the stockings hung on too. The cross stitch pictures are my Santa's Cookies design, a table runner with design from Zweigart "Christmas Redwork" and 2 Tralala designs.
Remember the wreath hook that I made, well this is what I hung on it. I found this berry wreath at Prairie Gardens/Jeffrey Allen on sale for $5, and the Santa was something I bought many years ago and a home decorating party my neighbor had. I just added a bow and the finished decoration.
I found the Christmas trees that are in the 1st picture, these Santa hats and the snowflakes that are in the next picture at WalMart last year after Christmas on sale for .50. They are a cute addition for a little display. I had this little sled, also a buy from WalMart from a couple of years ago on sale and decorated it with some berries.
This one has the snowflakes, and a metal basket with Christmas ball ornaments. The basket was a find from KMart after Christmas several years ago. These are on the counter at the reception desk where my work station is.
I am currently working on this "Merry Christmas" by New York Dreamer. It is going very quickly. I am stitching it on 25 ct Country Mocha and I did change the colors that it called to use. The colors were a brighter red(321) and green(904) and I wanted to use the burgundy(Anchor 45), a darker green(935), and ecru
I also bought from the same designer the "A Tree and a Bell for Christmas"
Since next Sunday is my Christmas with the Family, I don't know when my next post will be, so until then....
May Your Guardian Angel Watch Over You

Everything is beautiful.
We're going "light" on the decorations this year too. I'll probably go "all out" next year.
Hello Cindy
I saw your message on the stitch specialist forum and checked out your blog. I am amazed at your work. WOW. I look forward to following your blog and your projects.
I too saw your post in Stitch Specialists and thought I'd pop on and check out your blog- beautiful stitching!
Susie, your decor looks wonderful! I didn't do ANY decorating this year, but we don't do Christmas here, so I don't give a rip about it. I gave all my Christmas trees to the Salvation Army, lol! I used to go wild, but those days are over for me.
I love, love, love the New York Dreamer designs, and the 25ct Country Mocha is beautiful! Love the color changes you made!
