I could not resist these plates. They had birds AND music. They called my name for weeks and I ended up buying the last they had in the store. I pictured them on an elegant table but decided to try a more simple approach first.
Canning jar candles, burlap, twine and of course, a few jingle bells.
Lists are made. Some presents have been bought. Others are being made. The weather is colder. The music is playing.
Bring on the season!
