One of our first stops this weekend was to stop by and visit Carole of
Maynard Greenhouse whose Christmas shop was full of treasure!
Carole transformed this place into a magical Christmas wonderland....
...take a look!
We each left with a bag full of treasure...I had angel wings, ribbons, a tiny white bird, glass votives, a delicate bird's nest and a sparkly musical note ornament. What fun to bring it all home and incorporate my new finds into my Christmas decor!
Tomorrow I will share some photos of our visit to Deanna's wonderful shop
Gather....
...and then the open house at Cathy's of
The Cheswick Company and finally the Essex Holiday House Tour!
