Nostalgia......

 I found these little plastic reindeer at the thrift shop years ago.  Then I found the little sleigh which was made from an egg carton section and pipe cleaners.  Santa Claus is a tiny little Bellsnickle with a tiny candy cane.  Altogether it's about 10" long.
 This little peanut man was made by  my granddaughter in Girl Scouts when she was little, she's now 30 years old,
My first daughter, Cathy, made these bells in kindergarten.  They have graced my Christmas tree  since she was in kindergarten which was 1966.

When it boils down to it, at least for me, things from my girls and  family and friends are the most precious Christmas ornaments.      There will be more to share with you as Christmas draws nearer.                                                                                                                    Hugs,    Diane
