Snow and Snow and Snowmen



 

A couple more pinecone head snowmen!



Group shot

 Well we have had snow a couple times. I hasn't stuck but it does help to get me in the Holiday mode. I think I will take a short break from snowmen. I think some mushrooms and elves are in order. All of these fellows above are in my etsy shop. I also listed a couple more glittered pinecone snowmen. Back to painting and glittering for me! Have a great week everyone!

Hollies & Berries Ornament and fun Folklore

I'm just diverting away form Halloween for a moment to share my newest ornament. I am always fascinated to discover why we use certain symbols for decorating through the holidays. The folklore of Holly and Berries is wonderful. A symbol of rebirth used for protection against: naughty faeries, bad weather and lightning. It is considered very good luck to bring Holly & Berries into your home for the Holidays. If you choose the thorny type which is consider male or the smooth type considered female this determines who will rule the home in the coming year husband or wife. I think mine is smooth I didn't add thorny points. Hollies & Berries are here if you'd like to take a peek.
