Merry Christmas.....Just Thought I'd Share

I choose not to decorate in full this year.

I took many short cuts.






But I think it turned out Ok, considering.




This table is my favorite. I love my vintage Santa's.

[a lil closer peek]



I added one of my wreath's from Mamie's this year.

Loving how it works right here.

The screen in the background is new this year. I am not sure what I am planning on doing with it. But is is so rickety and old, I just love it!

Ry did my Nativity this year.

I absolutely love it under the cloche.

Hope you are well. Enjoy the magic that is the season.

See you in the new year, I will let you in on our Christmas surprise. I can't wait!

I'm A Psycho....2010 Holiday Movies!

Well, well, well.....I can almost see it. The light at the end of a very long tunnel. Mamie's is wrapped up and I am enjoying the thrills of giving and receiving. I delivered my friend and neighbor gifts this evening. Feels good to check that off. This year I purchased home-made soap from my mother and packaged them up cute like. It was different and smelled wonderful. She makes incredible soap. I love using it, if you are interested in getting any please leave me a comment. She would love to hook you up with some. I am not just saying this because she is my Momma. It is divine.

I am behind this year, as I mentioned a few posts back but it is all working out ok. We have a surprise coming up, I can't wait to tell you about it and how it all played out. I hope it just brings more joy and love to Christmas.

Ok- Christmas movie must sees. Here is my list. Keep in mind I am very, very behind.

1- Harry Potter-fell asleep the first time. Need to see it in the day time otherwise I struggle.

2-The Kings Speech. Yes, it is R, but I love the royals and Colin Firth what can I say. Besides it is about Victoria's Grandson, Queen Elizabeth's father. (I think this is right)

3-True Grit- I don't know why this is #3 but I really do want to see this. I love Jeff Bridges, if you end up seeing it. Let me know what ya think, will ya?

4-Country Strong- I liked Gwyenth on Glee, I think she will be very good. This will probably be the one movie I end up seeing.

5- I just can't help it, I am a Focker fan. Too funny. Hope it is not stupid.

That is it for this year. Small I know. Now promise me if you see any of these, leave me a comment. I would love to know what you think!

Holiday Update!

I am going to be at Salon Spectrum tonight! It is located at 7103 Stetson Drive in Scottsdale. I believe the times for this boutique are 5-9, I am excited! I have new bracelets and some really fun vintage items that are new! Lurve me some vintage!

I am winding down for the holidays! If you would like anything, especially bracelets please let me know. I do have plenty of supplies and am getting more in everyday but now is the time to order so I can get them to you in time for the big day!

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Ours was unique this year, yummy food, different circumstances as we were prepping for the wedding of my niece the very next day! It was a crazy week!

XOXO~Mamie
