Back then I collected and saved everything. Every tree had a theme.<br /><br />It weighed me down, having all that stuff. I gave trees away to my loved ones with all the ornaments for each tree. <br /><br />Oh, I hung onto too many, but they live in the attic so they need new homes too.<br /><br />Nowadays I decorate very little: mantel, bar, foyer. What keeps it minimalistic is the fact I KNOW I have to pack it all away again. :)People Who Know Me Would Say:https://www.blogger.com/profile/04621641188403948733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5423109522341970047.post-7785993064081057192010-11-18T13:29:39.538-08:002010-11-18T13:29:39.538-08:00I'm loving those pink ornaments!

Of course I buy more every year. But I'm trying to be more selective. This year I'm concentrating on my mantel. I have a beautiful Lladro nativity scene that was my mother-in-law's which I always display on my mantel, but it needs some freshening and a little punch. So that's where I'm concentrating my shopping.<br /><br />I host a weekly meme called Seasonal Sundays. I'd love to have you and your beautiful collections come join us.<br /><br />- The TablescaperThe Tablescaperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13046015889036397874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5423109522341970047.post-62092502158514715102010-11-18T03:37:10.771-08:002010-11-18T03:37:10.771-08:00Hi Sissie...love your collections!
