Another Gift....
This Will have to be a short post, Dear Readers, because I am running so far behind on my Other Seasonal Obligations...(otherwise known as The Christmas Card).... that it will certainly not get finished by Christmas at the rate I am going! But as we approach the Winter Solstice and the Darkest time of the year, I find myself Needing the beautiful lights of the Christmas Trees! I admit to feeling endlessly behind on my Dreams of Wonderful miniature Holiday scenes all decked out in tiny perfection, and believe that "someday" I will have the Time to make my wishes come true. But meanwhile I simply hurry around at the last minute setting up the little Tree in the Lovely Old Dollhouse... the same old tree in the same old corner of the Living Room! And yet.... when I plug in the lights and that mini tree shines with its own tiny colored lights... I am enchanted all over again!
There is just something intensely special for me
in seeing the Little Tree lit with tiny Little Christmas lights!!
I have not added any new ornaments in a while....
and all the ones on the tree were purchased years and years ago...
back when I was still hiding these treasures
in a closet waiting for "Someday" to arrive!
I know you can't really see them here
because there is so Little light....
I will have to pull the tree out Someday
and show you the real balls and glass birds
and snowflakes and the brass pieces too!
And with the passing of the years,
they somehow grow more and more special to me!
So I wanted to share them with you!
And I also wanted to show you, Dear Readers,
the Wonderful Gift I received
from Jodi of "My Miniature Madness" blog....
She sent me one of her Beautiful little chairs....
With all the little Tea Treasures that she made to go with it!
(I Adore Tea... and flowers.... and books and.... and...!)
I haven't decided where it will "end up" in my mini Worlds....
but meanwhile it is beside me as I work at my Drawing Table!
Thank You Jodi!!!
It is such a special Treasure and I absolutely Love it!!!
And Lest you think that I have neglected my Lilac Blossom Program....
Here is Blossom number Thirty-seven completed!
And with the ever growing assortment in the blossom box!
But really, Dear Readers,
it is those Little Lights.....
In this Season of little Light...
That bring me an endless gift of Joy!
