Christmas Decorating Finally Finished

I think I am finally finished with the Christmas Decorating. If I'm not oh well I'm done for anyway. It has taken about 2 weeks and I don't do all that much.

The above picture is the fire place and tree from across the room. The birds on the mantel live there year round and I just change greenery from one season to the next.

As I was putting the decoration on the tree at week, I noticed I have many bird ones. I do love birds of all kinds. Some I have made out of stained glass and some others have made. Here's a few:

OK so Blogger wants to upload everything backward. OK we will continue I made this shiny little center piece on a some table by putting down a 20 lite strand of lights, with a silver bead garland on top and some shiny balls. It really looks good and is real shiny.

And last but not least certainly, is the manager scene on the bar. We don't eat at this bar-it's kind of narrow. But I keep it decorated for different seasons too and it works well as a buffet when I have company as the stove is just on the other side. I know that manager scenes are not really Biblicaly correct as the wise men didn't show up until Jesus was about 2 years old but I like having it out as a reminder as to what it's all about.
