Post a pic of your oldest or fav Christmas piece (dialup warning)
Made this mantle cover 28 years ago. Just glue, felt, string and baubles. It's still in great shape. One of the baubles is an actual pearl ;)
(No mantle in this house...have displayed anyway...)



Made this silly elf out of salt dough...also 28 years ago...still ahve many others I made back then.
(not chipped...used enamel paint, so there's flash glares.)



So, share yours!!!

:hi:

2. I don't have anything I've made for Christmas, but that's a great cover.
And I like the birdcage thing-a-ma-bobbee or whatever it is.

How astute of you!

There are crystals hanging in it...that's what makes it such a GREAT thing-a-ma-bobbee!

And, thanks re: mantle cover :hi: Only my son knows where the real pearl is on it.

Go ahead, make YOUR best guess! :party:
