 Our trees each have their own personalities and are a work of art!

 

Wreaths and garlands are filled with the most luscious trims, ribbons, ornaments and found objects.

Little Fairies seem to be spying on us from every nook and cranny!

And of course there's good ol' Santa!  He's made his appearance and is watching over my little elves as we orchestrate a gorgeous holiday for our customers and friends.

Even Annie Sloan Chalk Paint has it's own special edition Christmas Tree...  click HERE to check out all the great colors and products available!

Okay, so I think this is one of my personal  favorite Christmas creations.  Chalk Paint isn't just for furniture, look how decorative a few used brushes and pots of paint can be!! How fun!! Stick in some gift certificates from your favorite stockist and we're good to go!

AND 

In the spirit of the holiday and the spirit of giving, for each entry received I am going to personally make a donation to a foundation that is NEAR and DEAR to the heart of my family.

My brother, who is a Chicago area policeman, was injured on duty and while being treated for his injury, almost lost his life and eyesight to a devastating disease called Steven Johnson's Syndrome.  His condition was caused by a severe reaction to antibiotics.
  
It was through the love and support of friends and family and the expertise of his doctors that he survived.  My heart goes out to Dr. Steven Maskin, here in Tampa, Florida, who through his incredible knowledge and research allowed my brother a second chance at life and our family to continue to be blessed by his presence.  



Dr. Maskin's passion in caring for his patients and his all his hard work is incredible. I want to continue to help support his efforts to help others with this devastating disease as well as the other diseases he researches.  

All my contributions will go to the Ocular Research and Education Foundation. This is my PERSONAL way of thanking him for his expertise, support and diligence!! 

Soooo.... get your creative juices flowing, share this blog and check back in a day or two for final entry details!
