Here is my Snowman Tree in the bar/tv/pool area.
And here are the many stuff snowmen sitting on the hearth:
And here is the pool table, covered and decorate for a party buffet:
My very own personal stocking:
And this adorable AnnaLee stocking in my craft room:
My AnnaLee tree, don't you just love the faces on her critters?
This ceramic piece was given to me a couple of years ago by a dear friend. Those are kitty cats all tangled up in the reins and it says:
"The Reason Santa Chose Reindeer Over Cats"
Here is the necklace I made a couple of weeks ago, using some odd-and-end old jewelry pieces and a 3-row tile beads "rope" I was learning to make:

I spent the ENTIRE 4-day holiday weekend decorating the house for Christmas. Too bad I cannot take decent pictures??? I must have been on caffeine or something, these are all fuzzy photos. Learing to photograph will be ANOTHER project for me AFTER I RETIRE.
This is the "nature" tree in the living room, mostly birds and lime/bronze decor. The "dead" butterfly on the floor was captured by one of the cats.
And this is the Christmas mantle in the living room:
This is the coffee table in the living room, made up of several miniature trees and evergreens, feathers, butterflies and anything else I could find to stick into it:
Stockings hung with care, in hopes that Saint Nicholas soon will be there?
The dining room table is decorated with gold reindeer:
And the dining room chandelier has evergreen and other decor stuffed into it:
The foyer carries the gold decor to blend with the dining room:
The Didkens Village is displayed on the buffet in the kitchen:
And of course, Baby Jesus has a special place in the bedroom sitting area:
More later of the SNOWMAN decorated lower level and my "helpers".
Jingle-Jingle!!!

If you would like to see some creative art studios, go to Karen Valentine's blog at www.mydesertcottage.blogspot.com for the annual WHERE BLOGGERS CREATE blog hop. Her studio is absolutely awesome!
Here are some pix of my studio. First up is my "QUEEN" collection (since I be THE QUEEN).
My "studio" is actually two adjoining rooms, one is a sitting area with my computer and sewing machine and architect files to hold rubber stamps.

See www.stamping-ground.blogspot.com for other participants.
On my workdesk today is my newest Queen doll! Isn't she adorable?
Here are some of the other "queenly" items I have collected.
Sorry some of these are blurry. I think I used the telescopic lens and macro setting at the same time - DUH??? And I'm much too lazy to take the pictures over again!!!!

I love-love-love the shabby chic all white/cream decor. I don't know if I would get tired of it, but the look is so cozy and pretty. I guess you could change the look by adding various color accessories for various seasons. I have always thought a total black-and-white color scheme would be fantastic, decorated with bright colored accessories? I found these photos at www.marleyandlockyer.blogspot.com.
I just put the photo of the puppy in to see if you were paying attention???

Look at these adorable chicken coops! People are so imaginative. I found these on the blog at www.theartofdoingstuff.com. The gal's boyfriend bought her some baby chicks for her birthday so they are deciding how to make the chicken coop. That is a cute blog, worth reading, she is precious.
Also, you animal lovers need to go to www.cuteoverload.com again today. About the third or fourth post down dated May 5 are some videos of new baby colts jumping around in the pasture and after that there are more videos of kitties "making biscuits" on anyone and anything which are precious! Have a great weekend.
