Diane, beautiful bobbles and some great colors. Your room looks so nice and warm. Will you send some warmth here? Way too cold. Thanks for joining the party.

I just had to leave a comment on how weird it is to see green leaves on your tree...whilst I am here covered in snow!

and your pillow shams...with all that glorious fine crochet on them.....oh I am totally drooling right now...I really need to make myself a set like that!

I love all your vintage ball ornaments. I have a few that I found in my father in law's basement a few years ago. Usually I put them in a big white ironstone bowl, but this year I decided to put them in a tall clear vase, so they would be easier to see.
You have such a bright house. Every room always has tons of light steaming through the windows.

Unknown said...

What a lovely light and airy place to be! Look at your chair turned to the light. Sigh! I would not think to collect together ornaments in a bowl. Simply elegant! Elizabeth

Glad to know you are staying warm...I heard about the Florida cold snap.

Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoriti said...

Your bedroom looks so nice and sunny, Diane! I love the red ornament balls you put in different sizes of glass containers...they almost look like berries or candy!

Unknown said...

Just been catching up on your lovely holiday posts. Hey Diane your quilt is beautiful, aren't you the lucky one? Enjoyed the naughty or nice post too!
Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year (just in case I don't get a chance to catch up again before the day.)
