A Little Christmas and a Flea!

Sharing a little bit of Christmas around the house today.  Am I done? Bien sur que non!!!
Am I just about over it.  Mais oui!
The Alpine Village may not make an appearance this year.  I lie.  The chickadee will gasp with horror and I will dutifully descend to the basement to bring up box after box of houses!  I know it.
Yesterday was an hour and a half doing the feather tree in the hallway and I think that did me in.  Of course I love it now that it is complete.
Anyhoo...here's a little tree I put together a couple of weeks ago:
Currently hanging out on the ironing board "console table" behind the couch.  A vintage brooch serves as tree topper.  I put together a sheet music paper garland and spelled out Xmas Joy with my tried and true Probe Game cards.  Did I add some glitter?  OF COURSE I added glitter.  Don't I glitter just about everything?
Also put together some bottle brush trees in old jello molds:

These goodies and more will be coming with me on Saturday to the City Flea:

The alphabet cards on the tree are my favorite. A great way to spell something fun.

Cute, cute! I love the cards. Yes, I agree glitter makes everything look better. Too bad it doesn't do the same for my face. I'm wearing plenty of it by the time I'm through. lol!
