A chalkboard for our kitchen..
The tin whistle, not as easy as one would think, but I'm practicing!

From my brother, a handmade table and chairs for our sunroom!
I am so excited for the space we have created!
A space to craft, eat sacks, play with dolls, enjoy the sun...
From the ceiling we hung a low tree branch which will feature seasonal decor..
snowflakes for the winter..
While sitting in a chair underneath, it really does look as if you are sitting under a tree!
Warm wishes to all for a wonderful Christmas week...the celebration continues for us until Epiphany...our first year celebrating as a family.
Those are the most lovely of gifts.

what fun ... the children that start in your program will really appreciate the safe and warm feeling that they will get from having the "ceiling lowered" by the branches, the warm colors and natural materials to experience, wonderful...well on your way to your in home preschool...

Wonderful gifts. (I also play the Irish whistle *smiles). Your seasonal branch is beautiful. I will be having a branch mobile coming up this year on my blog. When I get the summer leaf garland made I'll send you a notice. I like the idea of making it seasonal a lot. Take care and have a blessed New Year.
ReplyDeleteOoooooh, tin whistle! I love your new sunroom space! Hope to see you soon!
ReplyDeleteOh I just love what your brother created. Beautiful table and chair set!!!
ReplyDeleteYour table and chairs are lovely! He is a very talented woodworker. And I love the branch hanging above them.
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous of your bound book of blog posts. Such a wonderful, thoughtful gift.
that's a great quote from goethe - i like it and all the things you got. i too want a lyre one day... which company did your husband use to make the bound book of your blog? it looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteWow! The table and chairs are incredible. Hope you had a lovely winter holiday!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful celebration, and a gorgeous blend between nature and love.
ReplyDeleteOh my what wonderful Christmas treasures! Your husband was so sweet to make a book out of your blog. I love the table and chairs, the luminiere, and a tin whistle. I love how you try new things!
ReplyDeleteI am thinking I need to get on the chalkboard bandwagon. Merry Christmas (we're celebrating until the Epiphany too). Happy New Year!
Such wonderful things - what a lucky family!
ReplyDeleteGifts and memories to truly cherish.

So cool! How did he make the bound book of all of my blog posts? I have a feeling I will want to do something similar when my year is over. ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat is the paint color in the room I love how the light hits the paint and gives a glow
