Am I too late . . .

 . . . to share Christmas photos?

I hope you're not too tired of Christmas yet because I 

want to show you how I decorated our home this year.  

It took a while to discover where everything went ~ and I have to admit that my collection of Christmas decorations is much like a museum collection in that I do not put it all out at once.

The family room fireplace.  

Oh yes, that red brick has got to go!

Family Room Tree

 Dining Room

(new drapery fabric has been in my studio since September *cringe*)

Entry

 Living Room Windows

Since I'm down to 2 trees this year, these felted ornaments 

I  made years ago had to go on the window sills 

along with my 1908s vintage candles.

More Living Room

These bells were purchased during my first Christmas in my own apartment.  

They have seen better days, but will always find a place in my home at Christmas.

The Kitchen

I love my tiny bisque Santas on the sill!

And yes, even the (screaming for renovation) bathroom get decorated.

Letters to Santa from Maine

I found another lobster trap tree!  

Actually I found it a few weeks ago, but today I remembered to take my camera. 

 

This one is across from the Rockport post office and 

even has a nice mailbox for letters to Santa.  

The sign reads 

Santa Mail Drop Box!  

How cute is that!

And I must also tell you that while I was standing 

across the (relatively busy for Rockport) street 

taking this photo, the cars stopped in both directions for me.  

Gotta love these Maine manners.

More Cobblestone Creations collectors photos

Another of the wonderful people who give 

my little friends loving homes has shared some photos with me.  

Look who landed in a fabulous curio 

full of darling furry friends!

That's my little Micy's Shopper in pink 

looking oh so happy in her new surroundings.

Thanks for sharing, Marie.

You have a lovely display!

I enjoy seeing photos such as these.  

Have you some of your Cobblestone 

Creations to share with us? 

Please email if you do.

Look what I found!

On one of our recent adventures of exploring the 

downtown area in our new home town, 

I stumbled across this vintage wooden car 

in one of the shops.

I've trained my eye pretty well to see things 

on 'mouse scale' and wouldn't 

you know it ~   I was right!

Yes, that's a little bear in there, but the size is the same.   

 

Hmmmm . . . I'm thinking there is going to be a 

mouse family taking a picnic this Spring.

What can you do with some mice?

I just had to share these photos I got from one of the kind people who have given some of my mice a loving home.  This gal has used her creativity to feature two of my Carolers in a Christmas wreath!

Have you got some photos of your Cobblestone Creations

 you'd like to share?  

Just send them along to me.

We'd all like to see!
