Some of these you may remember from last yr., but I like to shuffle things around from yr. to yr. so they are not always in the same place as before.
Here's a stitchery pillow I made a few yrs. ago and used flannel around the outer edges. Notice the pearly buttons that make up his little 'body'.
I have lots of snowman tins, but chose to put out only a few this yr.
I kept the same tablecloth on there, but pared down the look quite a bit. I made the tablerunner in a class at a local quilt shop about 3 yrs. ago.
This stocking I made out of 100% wool and some overdyed wool.
Same design is on both sides of this wooden box.
I use a lot of snowman ornies on our Chr. tree every yr. but I keep a few out to hang on various pegs in the house.
My first rag quilt I ever made, all out of flannel and Warm & Natural, grubbied w/cinnamon for a more prim look.
This is the fireplace mantel in the family room once again, but I mixed the pieces up just a bit this yr.
A cute little candlemat I made a few yrs. ago....
A miniature tea set....
This little lunch box came w/a packet of hot choc.
Did you notice this one is carrying a 'GINGERBREAD'??? LOL
I know, I know, I need to get a picture in that cute little frame! ha That is a tea light on the right hand side.
Plate w/matching mug....
The little snowman in the front actually goes w/the little tea set....
A couple more tins to finish out the grouping....
and one of my favorite decorative wood plates....(oops, think I needed to turn him just a little).
A shop model I made several yrs. ago from a Sisters and Best Friends pattern which also came w/the mitten and glove......this is my message to each of you! Be warm inside and out! LOL
That's all for part one, but I'll be back again soon w/the second half and hopefully done w/something I've been working on.
Here's my quote for the day~ "We are brave in the face of new experiences if we have a faithful friend to journey w/us".(Unknown).
Well, see ya next time and I hope your year is off to a great start!

I do remember some of these pieces from last year. I adore the tablerunner and rag quilt! The grubby little snowmen faces are irresistibly sweet!
ReplyDeleteI have quite a few too so you are not alone. I believe I have more snowmen than all my Christmas combined, hehe! That's why they are displayed through Feb sometimes into March.
Great collection, Tanya! I hope you stay warm inside and out also! =]
