December 25, 2014 - Part 2

We love handmade gifts!
This nativity set is made of wood thread spools, sent by our artist friend Debbie,
made by her friend Kathy.

Debbie also sent this snowman ornament, which she made from a clothespin.

The design in this wood disc was burned by Jed's friend from Maine, Elijah.

Elijah also carved this stump and ax ornament.

Elijah's brothers cut ornaments out of green duct tape.

Another family of Maine friends, the Chicks, sent this ornament.

Jed's friend Ethan made this one.

And this is the ornament Jed made this year - a Charleston gate.
Our trip to Charleston was a highlight of this year and it was fun to relive it a bit in these ornaments.

I'm so happy Jed liked that little Nativity...my friend Kathy who lives in St. Louis made that especially for me to send to Jed this year...and she decorated the awesome box, too. I love collaborating with art friends...and I love the Charleston gate ornament that Jed sent my way! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year from Ohio...where we don't have any snow...yea!
