Ornament Exchange

This week I participated in an ornament exchange sponsored by Amy of Flamekeeper Beads.  My partner was Vickie Barber-Ellis of Sunshine Jewels.  She makes drool-worthy jewelry and handmade copper components.

She created a beautiful ornament that matched my tree wonderfully!  It is green and glass and even has some local moss from Arizona.  How cool is that!

Merry Christmas, a la Star Wars

My niece made an ornament for us this year. Why is the gingerbread man painted black? Because she loves Star Wars. This is Darth Vader. :) I love being a nerdy family.

ps: it is great to be back after being sick for over two weeks.
