Christmas mantle

I am most definitely not the best home decorator. I know what I like when I see it, I just don't seem to be able to recreate it in my own home as well as I think I should be able to. But it's hard to go wrong decorating your mantle for Christmas.

My Da & his wife brought back this Celtic cross on their trip from Ireland. Love it.

And these little bottle brush trees remind me of the Christmas village set we had when I was a kid. It was made of heavy cardboard and glitter, as I remember it.

At Thanksgiving, my mom told me she'd found the village and did I want it? Oh yes! I definitely do! I can't wait to see it again.

Lovely lovely photos. I love those little trees, too. I have a village also. Some of my very favorite Christmas decorations.
