For years I was blessed to receive a lovely floral arrangement every Christmas from a generous and appreciative mother of my students. She had two daughters a number of years apart in age, so there were a lot of years that I was the music teacher of her daughters. I found a picture of two of the arrangements in my Picasa files
So I was spoiled. I got used to having a beautiful arrangement on top of my entertainment center every Christmas. And I missed having one after her girls graduated from our school. Buying one for myself every year was out of the question.
I decided this year that I could possibly afford to buy a nice artificial arrangement that I could use year after year. So this evening I went to Michaels and discovered their arrangements were 50% off! I found one that I like. I just won't look too long at the pictures above or I might not like it after all.
I also decided I needed a nativity set for the counter in my breakfast nook. I found this cute little thing at Ross for $11.98!

I like them both - and you got a great deal too!
I love them Beautiful decorations and your blog looks great
They are all beautiful! When we lived in Maryland, the church sent us an arrangement for the table. When we moved away, I kept all the things that held it together and for years I replicated it using fresh pine. Then we moved one time too many and I no longer have the fundamental parts.
I REALLY like that nativity scene!
I know you are having a good time decorating your new home. So fun!
