One Week of Christmas



Cheryll at http://stitchingcubbyhole.blogspot.com/ is hosting One Week of Christmas.  This is day 2 you stop by and pay Cheryll a visit.



This is the Christmas stocking I made for Dillon when he was little.  Back when I crossed stitched. On the inside I made a label that says I finished in 2002.  Thank goodness for that label.  I would of never remembered when I made it.   It hangs on our mantel.  


This is another one of my vintage flocked Santa's that I put in a glass dome with a pearl necklace around his feet.  It sits on a table under the tv that I got from my grandma except my grandma's tv sat on the table when I was little.  So many wonderful memories.

Merry Christmas.

Hugs
donna

    I love your stocking, and that's a great idea to put the date you completed it. I also love your santa he is sweet and the pearls remind me of my grandmom Orde ...she always wore her pearl necklace :)
