I applaud their thrift and cleverness.

I found this vintage perfume bottle when I was going through the boxes of Christmas stuff for the sale. I guess I'll keep it for now. The outside is a styrofoam snowman figure which conceals a spiral-shaped bottle.

So cool, Deb! I got a new decoration this year, a collectible Avon Christmas tree which I got at a deal because the light-up part no longer works:



(The smudge and dark thing on the base are reflections, I guess; the base of mine is perfect.)

I took this photo with my iphone.
My daughter bought me this Christmas Tree last year.
My other daughter carried it upstairs, assembled it, and decorated it.
I was on my own to prepare and serve 6 for Thanksgiving Dinner.
My sister offered to help me...whew! Glad this only happens one a year!

Thank you @RadishRose The full view is upstairs where the bedrooms are. Some people do their LR and kitchen on their 3rd floor here but that's a lot of stairs to climb to the kitchen! I'm pleased to have what I have.

@Ruthanne That's so beautiful! I'm going to miss snow. We may get a dusting here on the island but not much. We have pine trees but not the variety in your post. They don't come to a point. I know!... I'll find a picture like this on my TV that has soft Christmas music and snow falling. YouTube has many choices. Thanks for posting it
