Christmas Traditions

I finally got organised to put up a few Christmas decorations this week.  

I bought a nice holly wreath for our door and a poinsettia for the table on the weekend...but my favourite part was putting up tonight's decorations.  Beautiful crocheted snowflakes, made with love by my Grandma Elsie.  

I'm so glad that I asked her to gift a few of them to me one Christmas.  

I've continued mum's tradition and hang them on the sliding door and on the windows.  It's especially nice to have them in North Vancouver...since there is no snow on the ground!  
They are so pretty.  They make me smile when I look at them.  

Grandma sure was crafty...I really must learn to crochet at some point.
