On Dasher, Dancer and a Sled.

Oh the hustle and bustle of the holiday season!

 

But you know what?



I LOVE this time of year!

 

Last week I posted a wreath that I had made for our Son and DIL.

I originally made a different one but then I realized that

it would be exposed to the elements.

 

I started out with the same type of wreath form.
This wreath I left in one piece.

Here is the finished wreath.

Here are a couple of close ups.

For this wreath I made a burlap bow.

Since I decided not to give it to our Son,

I hung it on our front door.
Isn't it the perfect fit!
I'm glad I decided to keep it.

Since I was in the designing mood,

I thought that I would dig out an old

sled that I've had for a few years

and dress it up for the holidays too.
It's a Flexible Flyer that I found at a garage sale
for $10.00!  It was in great shape. The only thing missing
was the rope to pull it with, which wasn't a big deal to me.

I remember having one of these when I was a child.

My siblings and I would spend hours outside

in the winter playing in the snow with this.

Do you remember these sleds?

Once I had it decorated,

I placed it between our garage doors.

And a close up of the sled.

Every time I see this it brings back happy childhood memories.

 

Hubby decided he wanted something

sweet to eat today.  I try to make sweets that don't

contain caffeine so that Hubby can enjoy them.

Today I made some White Chocolate Candy Cane Chex Mix,

and also a batch of White Peppermint Bark.

 

I think this will take care of his sweet tooth for a while!

 That's it for this week.

Check back in next week for more Christmas around our house.

Until Next Time,

Veronica
