And all through the house, the creatures were wrapping, cooking, singing, eating, filling …. Have a little peek at our Christmas spirit—Figgy Cottage style.
Have a Very Merry Christmas!
Have yourself a Merry little Christmas
Magnolia wreath decorates the kitchen Dutch door
Large pine cones and branches decorate the window box
This is what happens when you send boys to buy a 9 foot tree (and 4 feet were cut off)
Janie and Gracie love all of the activity
Hemlock cones cover the large tree forms—college son even gathered the pine cones
New green loveseat just in time for Christmas
Christmas centerpiece—all from grocery store—forgot to order flowers

Lisa, Thank you! Most of it was locally sourced. The pine cones were a special gift from my son. I am thinking about adding a little glitter to them next year—Ala Martha Stewart!

Cindy, The large pine cones were from a trip my husband and son took to south Georgia. I bet we could find a few for you.
