Holiday Traditions

When thinking about our family holiday traditions I must include the decorations we have gathered over the years. I am a mixed bag when it comes to types of decorations I like. I have been victorian at times but usually find it to frufru. I have been strictly country but found it to plain. I have gone primitive and loved it but still find it to confining so now I just put it all out and keep from year to year the things I love and send the rest to the thrift store for someone else to enjoy. We as a family tend to make a lot of our own decorations and what we do not make we purchase from friends who make ornaments too so I know where everything came from and whose hands did the work. Then I also have a collection of German hand painted blown glass ornaments, mostly Santas and pinecones.
Today I have posted some photos of a few of my primitives because I find them to be the focus this year. I hope you enjoy looking at them too.
Happy Holidays to you.
