Don't want to take over any one thread so I'll do my own. I kind of do picture overload. I have quite a few to post. I don't like that I have to keep going back to paint and shrinking them over and over again. Takes forever now to post pics here.

First, the entry

Very pretty! Stunning in fact.

How did you do the snow under the cloches?

Strings, thanks. The snow is easy. I have two different types. The snowbabies have the fake plastic snow. I just grab a handful and add it, I even let it fall over the tree and the babies to make it look like it was snowing. I then put the cloche over it and wipe off the remainder that landed on the outside (or blow t off) I basically do the same with the santa snow.

GP, thanks. I love deer. They are a beautiful animals. My MIL use to collect owls or as she called them, hibou (owl in french). I started loving them too, especially the white ones.

Strings, you are welcome

MR. thanks. I enjoy Christmas. Each year I keep saying that I am going to start earlier. I did pretty good this year but I still would like to have everything done by dec. 1st. Just have some baking left to do now, shopping, wrapping all done, yah.

Can everyone else see picture #2, because I can't. The same thing happened to me on LOS' Winter Wonderland thread. I could only see the first two photos until today.

VG, did you only post one picture? All I see is the nativity scene with three wise men. Which by the way is lovely. Where do you find such nice things?

VG, I LOVE it all! So beautiful, and I love seeing how you change things up each year. You're such an inspiration to me! I get caught in a decorating rut sometimes, and am trying to step out of the box. Always love seeing your house. Smile

Looks like she removed them. IF HGTV had removed them I would think they would have started with the nativity scene.

Her trees are always a work of art! A highlight of my holiday season for sure!

CatiieCupCake, I don't know if she removed them. Today is the first time I could see MaryRuth's like picture. Plus I could only see two of LOS's pictures on one of her posts the first few days after she posted.

I also can only see the Nativity pic.
There is not even a link to the pics in the first two posts.
I'm sure the scenes we are missing are gorgeous , though!!
