Just a Little Christmas Decor


 
My Christmas décor is at a minimum this year due to the majority of my decorations, etc. are in the attic.  John always gets those down and I didn't think he was up to that this year.  So, I just used items I already had in my entry closet.
 
This is my entry with a vintage piece of furniture.  I used my Happy Holidays sign done in Candy Cane stripes.
 
 
I love this black wicker snowman's hat that I got after Christmas last year.  I filled it with live poinsettias.
 
 
On the other side, I used another poinsettia and some of my Santa collection. 
 
 
I have this thing about little boxes.  These are some of my favorites.
 
 
This is one of my best all-time favorite Santas.  Of course, it's made out of a Coca Cola bottle!
 
I have been really busy this last week getting out all of my Etsy orders for the holidays.
 
GOOD NEWS!!
 
John and I went to his cancer doctor yesterday and the news was great.  His cancer count was almost non-existent. 
 
We thank God for his goodness and thank all of you for your good wishes and prayers.  They worked!  We still have some issues to deal with but we're on the right track.
 
Thanks again.
 
Till next time, Judy

  10. That is wonderful news...the best gift of them all. I love your pretty things...the coke Santa sure is cute. We didn't get things down from the attic this year either. Feels good to do a little less! Sweet hugs!

  11. Yeah for the good news. I know that you could use some of that. It's okay not to decorate as much as before. I do that every year now, a little less. funny, because I just decorated with what didn't make the storage boxes. I still need to find ornaments though. Other than that, it still looks good without all the fluff. As long as I have lights here and there I am happy.

  16. I am so happy to hear the good news about John. I still keep both of you in my prayers. Is there someone close-by who could go up into your attic for you? A kindly neighbor, friend, or relative? The decorations you have out are really cute though. I really like your Happy Holidays sign and the Santa Coke bottle.

    Your candy cane sign is charming as is your Coca Cola Santa, who is my favourite Christmas character, next to Frosty!
