31 Days of Decorations: Day 29 Cats

Now I'm not one of those weird cat ladies or anything, but for some reason, once people find out you have a cat, they start giving you cat Christmas stuff. Collect enough and you, too, can create a cute scene with Santa.

 

31 Days of Decorations: Day 28 Avon Snowglobe

The year I got married (1988), I went to a party and someone there sold Avon and I drank too much and bought this. Which I love and it was a great drunken purchase.

31 Days of Decorations: Day 26 Manger Scene

This is the nativity scene that I picked out at an estate sale. I love it, even though I'm not religious. Yes, I put snow around it each year. I think that's inaccurate, but it looks pretty.

This is the stocking my mom made me when I was little. It's huge. Gigantic.
