And there are a few new ones slowly creeping in to the house,
Parcels are being wrapped ready to send to special friends.
And special friends have already sent tempting parcels.
The Christmas serviettes have been purchased
and recipes are being pulled out of the cupboard.
If only I didn't have the distraction of my youngest sons 18th on Saturday or this table we pulled out of the shed and found out it was an extremely old pine table under the laminex that someone in their infinite wisdom glued on it!! Now I have to clean it up and weatherproof it. It is going to be a beautiful table for the outdoor area!!
And maybe I shouldn't have found the pile of Vintage Aprons in the cupboard when I was cleaning the sewing room on Friday. I spent Sunday making this.......
So of course I have to get it hand quilted and the binding on, don't I??????
The two suitcases and box of trees and ornaments will definitely be pulled out on Sunday. Nicky will be home and I hope to get her help. Christmas is slowly sneaking into our house......

Hi Jackie,
You have some lovely ornies and your table is sure to be fantastic! Enjoy celebrating your son's 18th on Saturday. BTW, the quilt is wonderful too! Enjoy getting ready for Christmas- it's a special time of year! We just put our tree up here. Wishing you and your family a beautiful Christmas and all the best in 2012! Barb x
your special ornaments are just beautiful, Jackie. It is so good to get the old friends out again!
love the hand written recipe, reminds me of my nanna.
I love pulling out those special ornaments and remembering why they are so special. I haven't even thought about the Christmas cooking yet, but I really should. I love to make rum balls each year, my favourite. I hope the birthday party went well.
Thanks for coming over to visit my blog and your very kind comments on my Memory Tree - it means a lott!!
It's going to be a great Christmas in blogland - seeing Christmas in all the different countries - it does look like the big day is creeping into your room - and then all of a sudden it just takes over!!! Love your wrapping paper on the red ribboned gift!!!
I just adore Santa and the bell, very pretty! I too have a few of the decorations out now, but I just cannot bring myself to put he tree up yet!
You have presents wrapped already! I need to get moving. Your place is looking lovely. :)
Your ornaments are just beautiful. What a busy time for you, too. Have a wonderful season!
