It's hard to believe that Christmas is a short 5 days away, isn't it? While some of you are getting hit by a snowstorm, here at the chateau we are getting rain, lots of rain!
Hopefully that will turn to snow so that we can at least have a dusting for Christmas.
We always like a get a big tree each year for the living room. This year's tree tops out at 11' tall!
The above picture is with the lamp on.
And this is just by the light of the tree. Magical, I think.
One of my glittered French postcard ornaments that I made a few years ago.
Oh, I should warn you, lots of photos today!
I have quite a few angel ornaments on the tree. This sweet one makes me think of the newest little angels in heaven from Connecticut.
Cute dog ornament with a photo of our Emily as a puppy.
I love this ornament! It is of a "snowdog" snowman!
One of my beaded icicle ornaments.
More glittery goodness.
Love this crystal ornament from my mom! Makes me think of a chandelier!
Cute plane ornament is a nod to hubby and his airplane.
The ornament on the left is one of my favorites. I also love the metal icicle ornament, it shimmers and shines in the light. My sister gave me a set of them last year, handmade by a tinsmith.
Ornament that I made from a milkweed pod.
More sweet angels.
I love this one below, a gift from hubby. It is on a spinning mechanism, so she twirls around.
I laid on the floor to take this photo of the tree!
Thanks for joining my on my little tour!
Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas!

Your tree is just beautiful! I've always wanted a tall skinny one but I think our ceilings are only nine feet. I can tell that you treasure all of your pretty ornaments! The postcard you made is very sweet!
Merry Christmas!

Gorgeous tree, Donna. You have a lovely collection of ornaments for your very "GRAND" tree. Our rain finally changed over to snow this morning. The girls were hoping for an early Christmas break.
