I think winter is officially here!

It has been so cold here in Alabama!  This morning I woke up to frost over the ground and freezing cold.  I am pretty much a cold blooded person so freezing cold weather doesn't set very well with me!  I done a little Christmas decor outside because we are trying to sell our house and I didn't want to have to take a ton of it down.  So if anybody is looking for a house to buy in Alabama....buy mine please....just kidding well not really.

So here is the outside of my house

 
I made some initial glass ball ornaments last year.   I bought some clear glass ball ornaments last year at Hobby Lobby,  bag of fake snow, and some stick on letters from the scrapbook section.  I took the caps off of the balls and stuffed the snow inside.  Stuck one of the letters on front.  Instead of using plain ornament hangers I used ribbon to tie it to the tree to give it some jazz. I actually done that to several other ornaments too.  I just tied it in a loose knot instead of bow.  I made everybody in my family ornaments with their initials on them.  They would make great gifts for Christmas or even for teachers. 




I am linking to these parties today:



Have a great day!!
