The Finishing Touch......


The fireplace is all aglow with lights, peppermint striped light bulb ornaments, silver mercury glass garland, a Mark Robert`s Peppermint Fairy, and two Byer`s Choice ice skaters.




A whimsical peppermint snowman.....





..... Is a close friend of the peppermint Santa!





These are a few new Carolers I bought after Christmas last year. Santa always puts money in my stocking to shop special sales after Christmas- It`s my day!!




This Santa is just hanging around! I love him- He is full of mica flakes on a peppermint stick... You gotta love that!



















I`ve been collecting Byer`s Carolers for years. This set is my favorite! I collect all types of things from "A Christmas Carol." I just love the whole story because I truly believe there IS good in every one.




After looking all year, I finally found this vintage PINK flocked wreath! I love it.








Some whimsy in the guest bathroom. This is my tree I put in there every year.


I hope you enjoyed a glimpse of my wonderful whimsy world during this Holiday season.
Life can be so stressful and serious sometimes, you just have to take time to enjoy Christmas with a smile.....
and remember the REAL reason for the season!
