I say it every year, and I mean it every year: thank you so much for sharing this tradition with me. I am humbled--and delighted--that you have made my little open house a part of the Christmas festivities you look forward to. Having a place in another person's Christmas tradition is very special, and I love it. I started this tradition 12 years ago, mostly for me, because I love Christmas and I figured if I was going to make Christmas stuff, I might as well put it on my blog. But over the years, it has grown into something I feel I do for all of us, because we all need a completely cozy, completely safe, completely cheerful Christmas place to go. Whatever is going on elsewhere, it ain't goin' on here.
I have to give special thanks this year to Mr. Wonderful, who has helped me pull this off. It was close, y'all. I put the finishing touches on this year's celebration last week. Never in 12 years have I been so late. He cheered me on, brought me brownies, and kept our ever-so-helpful kittens out of my way while I was hunched over my craft table with tweezers and a glue stick for hours on end.
Tomorrow I'll have a bonus post for you with some information about the supplies I used to make these ornaments and some helpful tips. Again, thank you for being here, thank you for leaving lovely comments and anniversary wishes, and thank you for making me a part of your Christmas. The theme for next year is chosen, one project is already done, and I'm already excited!
As always, from our home to yours, MERRY CHRISTMAS!
