She's adorable, Pam!
Cheryl, jump on in with pictures whenever you have them. There's no time limit on any of these.
Marianne, how great that you now have those precious ornaments as memories to keep.

One more.
I made this sometime in the late 80's. It was driving me crazy. It even had wine spilled on it. Finally, I put it aside nearly finished. Greg took it to a co-worker who finished it for me, and Greg had it framed. I love it.

They’re all beautiful Pat!
Yes, it’s a kitten. I love her fur collar.

Gotta love those ghoststitchers, Pat. I've served that role a time or two when Rebecca has been rushing to finish a needlepoint stocking for the boys before Christmas Eve but knew she just wouldn't have the time. And somehow I was always the one who sewed them together.

Ghostsitchers! What a great word!

This plastic bell with the reindeer inside was mine as a kid. Despite that it's been broken and glued back together a time or two and there are now pieces missing, it's still a treasured ornament on my tree.

It's tradition that I give each grandson a tree ornament at Christmas. This year I made my own tags and hand-painted the gift wrap for them.

I love your childhood ornament, Keitha! Lots of great memories there. And the ornament packaging is fab! I do ornaments every year for my nieces and nephew, but they are simply wrapped in bubble wrap and sent with the rest of the gifts, to be hung on the tree when the box arrives.

This is an ornament my mom gave me.... I can't remember how long ago... and she never told me where she bought it so I wasn't able to find out any more about who made it or how... it's packed away right now with the bulk of our decorations.. just haven't brought everything out in a while. One of the wings snapped off years ago so it's glued back together... doesn't matter... it still means a lot to me.. mom's been gone since '95 and it's older than that..

Cheryl, we grew up with Santa doing all the tree trimmingwannabescrappin wrote: ↑Sun Dec 06, 2020 9:48 am What a great challenge - Kurt and I will decorate our tree this week and I'm hoping to share my special ornaments with you all! When we were kids, we never saw the Christmas tree until Christmas morning - I'm still amazed all of these years later, how my parents managed that feat!
and putting together the electric train platform. Christmas morning
we woke up to a living room totally transformed.
I continued that tradition with my children, we would get to
bed about 4 or 5 in the morning and almost before our heads hit the pillows
the kids were up excited that Santa had been there

Re: Fun Challenge #5 - favorite ornament or holiday decoration
I'm late posting these. Apologies for the terrible exposure. The dog ornaments were generic Boxer and Golden when I purchased them. I altered them so they'd look like Cedric and Buddy. I also have one that's a plain Golden for Yellow Dog, and a plain Lab for Burger. Tj found a Staffie ornament that looks like Rocky, so he's represented, too. The angel was purchased when I went to a Christmas festival many years ago with my neighbor, who passed away last year when her breast cancer metastasized. I've never used her as a tree topper, always as a stand alone.
