I love all of your little decorations! You are very good at keeping them neat and clean for so many years. I guess it's that beautiful closet you have for storage :) Simplicity is a good word for this year and I'm doing some of the same. Working hard at just enjoying instead of over doing!

Having said that, your simpler approach to festive decorating this year, coincides with my 'take' on things, (even those that don't have to do with decor!). Your Putz neighbourhood centerpiece shines; what I would give to take a winter stroll in such a magical, snowy place!<br /><br />Happy Monday!<br />PoppyPoppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.com
