Christmas - and Susan Branch....

Here it is Thursday already!  How has your week been?

I want to take time to share with you some of my favorite things to have out for this season.

This book is full of all sorts of "goodies" for Christmas!

I was thrilled to find these mugs, designed by Susan Branch, several  years ago.

This is a documenting what has made Christmas special for us this year.  It has space for five years in it.
I have been a fan of Susan Branch for a  number of  years.  If you are not familiar with her, visit her website at susanbranch.com.  She is a very talented artist, writer, and designer of all sorts of wonderful things!

The tablecloth on the table in the second picture was a gift from a special friend.  I have really enjoyed it.

Remember!  Tonight is the night I will choose the winner of the Tea Time giveaway.  Just leave a comment telling your favorite tea and treat!

Thank you for reading.  I really appreciate your comments.

  9. Hello Nellie!
    So nice to catch up with all of your lovely Christmas posts. I've been having problems with internet connection. It is intermittent and I have not been able to stay on-line for long at a time.
    Love your Susan Branch displays. As you know, I follow her blog too. Like you I have been following for a long time:) Your cookies in the last post look quite spectacular!
    Hope everything is going well for you as Christmas approaches.
    Happy days from a very hot Melbourne!

  10. Nellie, I don't know how much longer I can stave off my Susan Branch envy (lol) ... would be thrilled to come across even one of her dishware items. I met her in 2000 at a QVC event; have collected most all of her books and a couple of framed prints ... have followed her blog even before it became a blog! She is a gem. Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
