Decorating 101 & chocolate pretzels

Hello Friends, How are you today??  I have been busy...busy...just  like all of you I'm sure. I will be serving up dinner for 19 on Christmas Eve so my tables are top priority for me and I thought I would share with you. I am a big collector and for many many years I have been buying these mini trees on sale after Christmas. I have been waiting for the snow to go on sale too and this particular snow goes quite a long way and you can find it here. This snow makes my trees and village people look festive and special. The kids love it too.

This is the teen table. I have been collecting these caroler dolls for over 20 years. I love them so much.


This is the adult table. One of the trees is a candle and some of the trees I don't even like but, when you cluster them together they look great. The penguins are really inexpensive but, look so regal in a bowl of snow. (antique punch bowl)

I have a nutcracker collection too. The after Christmas sales are a perfect way to start collecting or add to a collection.

I made some chocolate covered pretzels for my lovely neighbors. The SRM stickers were the perfect way to jazz up my packaging quickly!

These really taste so yummy...the salty and sweet!!


My husband commissioned me to make some tags for these UGLY gold wine bags. I did my best to cover them without spending to much time. More SRM stickers and a Penny Black stamp.


I have will have another wine tag and ornament to share on Thursday. Until then have a great day!
Hugs, Kathy  ....Merry Everything :)
