I can't believe that Christmas was a month ago and yet my home is still decorated for the holiday. I have begun the task of packing away the decorations and promising myself that I will be so much more organized next year. This, by the way, is a yearly promise, some years I make it and others....well not so much. I must confess that I do leave the family room tree up until sometime in late winter. It is not in the way and gives my husband and I such pleasure as this is the room that we tend to watch television in and let's face it, winter is blah. Unless of course there is snow. Speaking of which, we are due to get a storm on Tuesday. We shall see how this turns out as yesterday's storm resulted in a dusting. My friend's in Alabama have seen more snow this year than we have here in Delaware.
Today is the day to cut and pleat some smocking things. I will be having surgery at the end of February and want to have several items ready to go. I specialize in children's heirloom and classic clothing. I also do special occasion clothing for proms, weddings and have had year's where I do massive amounts of home dec (curtains, spreads, dust ruffles, drapes, tablecloths).
Now to figure out how to put a picture with this and day 1 of being a blogger will be a success.
Not planning on taking down my tree until Elvis' birthday, like I was taught growing up. A tribute to the king!!!!
