Glass Domes

Mrs Claus looks very pleased with herself, sitting there in her chair knitting away while she hums. I wonder what she is making?


The yearly visit from Santa and his sleigh.


Still no tidying done, in fact I went back to bed for half the day. I can imagine I will be in a mad panic come tomorrow! However, I HAVE finished two more swap parcels and they have been posted. While down the road I also popped into the charity shop and was really pleased to find something that had been on my want list for ages, and for £2.99 I thought it was a bargain.

This glass dome on a marble base. I think it is for cheese, but I am going to use it to display seasonal decorations and treasures. It is a really heavy glass dome which I'm thrilled about as more often than not they are a form of plastic.

I enjoyed myself at the party last night and my Secret Santa gift's were well received.

This is what I got, some pretty fabric wrapped up in lace.

Goodness it is gone 4pm already, DS2 is home and has announced he wants to give a friend a present tomorrow - nothing like short notice is there?!

Lets see what I can drum up for him.

  2. Well that was a perfect present for you! Love the Christmas lights. Was it a parade at night or Christmas lights on every night?

  6. That Mrs Claus has a bit of a scary glint in her eye - maybe she didn't get what she wanted from Santa!
