Little Vintage Christmas Bear

The snow was beautiful this morning....
...not as much as was called for but about 8 inches...
This little bear has been in the family for over 50 years...
(For some unfathomable reason...I am not allowed to tell you who he belonged to or what his cute little name is...but he wasn't mine! :)...)



Today he is sitting in a vintage sewing basket that was trimmed a long time ago with a few Christmas bells, faux greens and ornaments...



I added the vintage Santa ornament and old toy blocks...



The tinsel is vintage as well...found at the flea market last summer...



My assistant Starla and I finally finished up decorating the tree with our vintage ornaments this afternoon...



and finally...a vintage Christmas photograph of my Mom, my sister and myself...
...sweet memories of childhood....see those matching Christmas dresses?
My Nana made them for us....
I wore mine until I outgrew it and then wore sister Lynn's!
