Starry Night


I finally got our tree up and decorated this evening. I strew (is that a word?) our Moravian stars on the mantel and wound some white lights among them. You can see the tree reflected in the glass on the little print.


Then I made an ornament for my friend Carrie with some beautiful handmade paper I found in Papyrus a while ago. I tried it out on my tree first and now I'm thinking I should make myself a few of these.

I think Papyrus is one of my all time favorite shops.

Merry Christmas!

Melanie beat me to it - LOL! Whatever you did with the stars, they look festive and beautiful. Happy holidays and wishing you a great 2008.

I was going to say "Melanie beat me to it!" but Rayna beat me to that, too! It's a good thing we're all grammarphiles.

And I must say, I'm absolutely in love with the first picture.

Moravian stars!? I have some and never knew. Happy to know now, though. Thanks.
