Christmas Displays

"What is Christmas? It is tenderness for the past,
courage for the present, hope for the future. It is
a fervent wish that every cup may overflow with
blessings rich and eternal, and that every path may
lead to peace. "
            ~Agnes M. Pahro

   I love Christmas displays - I love to see how the things I have collected over the years for Christmas can be put together in a beautiful group. I decided to make a few Christmas-y displays today using my little shelf and a pretty tiered cake stand that I have. I took lots of photos and wore myself out running all over the house looking for just the right finishing touches. I hope you like the pictures and have fun making your own Christmas displays! Christmas is just around the corner now!
