The clock is ticking… the year is ending… and we’re about to embark on a New Year! Hope you’re having a great night with family, friends or even your TV remote… whatever makes your night special! Enjoy… reflect… and stay safe!

After a very hectic “pottery & holiday season,” I’m finally getting around to finishing up some of my own personal holiday fun! And I just love this gift that arrived from my cousin Michael & Anna in Minnesota… custom dish towels with two family recipes printed in them. I must admit I got a little choked-up when I saw my Mom’s perfect handwriting on one of them… and my Grandma Kitty’s on the other (my Mom’s mom). Such a thoughtful gift… THANK YOU Michael & Anna!!!

Now I feel like I might just need to make a Pineapple Coconut Sheet Cake!!!

Another day, another Christmas tree collection… keeping the holidays alive!
Thanks for sharing Amy.

Sure, Christmas might be over… but that doesn’t mean that the festivities
can’t continue for awhile still. Loving this little holiday collection from Sharon…

“I love my Christmas tree. It looks awesome with my vintage tree
and my handcarved Jamaican Santa. Thank you!

Not a 100% sure what I’m “celebrating” today…
But I’ll be “boxing up” the remains of my Holiday Home Shows today! I’ve been “living in a store” in my condo for two months now. I can’t wait to start putting it all away to reclaim my space.

And again, with a HUGE “Thank You” to everyone who stopped by and made it a little easier for me to pack up now with a LOT less pottery on the shelves!!!

Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates the day… mine will be filled with my family in pajamas, silly holiday games with fun “presents” as prizes, breakfast foods for dinner & plenty of holiday desserts! Hoping your day is filled with fun festivities too.

Did I mention desserts???

A little sunrise “present” this morning to start off my Christmas Day. It was great to finally NOT have a gray, rainy & overly clouded morning. It felt good to start my day with a nice bike ride… now bring on the Christmas treats & sweets!!!

Wishing you & yours a wonderful holiday season.
Filled with family & friends making magical memories for years to come.

Celebrating a beautiful night showing off a beautiful collection of ceramic Christmas Trees… in a beautiful display cabinet. Wishing you all a wonderful holiday weekend. And thanks to Keith & Julie for sharing their collections with us.

But wait… what is that?… a red & white peppermint-striped tree?…
perhaps some festive inspiration for next year???

After my recent online pop-up Christmas Tree sale… it looks like Anna’s FOREST of Christmas Trees just keeps getting bigger & bigger down in Orlando!!!
