merry, merry & Day 21

Here's a look at some of the bits and pieces of our home this morning.

And here's how this gathering appears in my book for Day 21:

So many awesome traditions shared yesterday - thank you so much.

Edited with info: plates are from Pottery Barn (picked them up on sale on Tuesday in the local store - you could get them individually there); match box is a lucky find at an antique store; scallop punch is from Marvy (looks like there are some here). The presents with the photos for tags are from my sister (love you Jess).

    Did you use pictures as tags for gifts? Love that! And are those little tags on the red & white plates tiny placecards? Love this! Would love to see each of these photos on your flickr page for more details!
    Merry Christmas!

    so in love with this album and the festiveness that is your house! The matches box is so cool, and I love the square wreath. No wonder you like to decorate early!

    this is so amazing! how do you print a photo like that where you have all the different pictures in one? does that question make sense?

    Thanks so much for all you do..you inspire me!
    I love that you asked about Christmas traditions and I am looking forward incorporating some of the suggestions into our Christmas together --with two kids 2 and 1, I really had no time until this year to start thinking about how to make Xmas really special. Loving the pajama idea!!
    Merry Christmas to you and yours. May 2008 bring you even more love and great laughs.

    I'm going to join the "where did you get that?" crowd. Where did you get that super cute match holder? That is the most awesome looking thing!

    I'm sure you get tired of these sorts of questions but I LOVE the rectangular wreath. Any ideas for where one could acquire such loveliness?

    the house is amazing. You have done a wonderful job decorating it.
    On the album what are you using to make the main pages is it acrylic sheets? Will you be doing an on-line class or something like this album in the near future?
