Is That MY Cat in the Xmas Tree!!!




Well, what was I thinking doing a Bird and Nature
Christmas Tree with a Bengal Cat?  She was a baby kitten
last year when I got her for Christmas and she only played
with the lower ornaments!  This is a 71/2 foot tree and she is almost to the top!  After two weeks, not much was left on the tree and since it was artifical all the branches were sagging and out of there brackets.  So out we went to buy a table top tree
and I decorated it with only lights and bulbs, and all is well.
I might add she does sit and look at the new tree and
meows and meows for her old climbing bird decorated tree!


Merry Christmas to all!

 

Dresser Set done in Barn Red

 
Barn Red, love love the color! could see the dresser as an
entry table, cadenza, or buffet! 
 
 
 
 





Again, I brought two unmatched pieces together for a set, or not?
Furniture pieces now can be used in so many rooms!
It is up to your imagination!  And a Pop of Color is Grand for
home decor!
                                                             
                                                                      Before
All these drawers and those great knobs, had to redo these!

I am posting this on Christmas Eve morning, As all are sleeping! I had wanted to share some of my Christmas Decor, but can't believe how busy I have been, both good and bad, from family illness to the delight of having family members visiting for  Christmas.  I wish all of you a  Very Merry Christmas, and the Best for 2013!

involved.


Just connect 3 wreaths

my scarf and hat and he is there to
welcome all!

I did mention they were not a set,  It looks like boy meets girl!  But after the sanding, painting
 filling in the knob holes on the night stand, then drilling new holes, and adding matching knobs, well, i like pair!


I might add it was not easy getting the wax and nail polish off this before redo!
