Sweet Sunday Scripture.........



Christmas is slowly showing up 
a little at a time here at the Sumner's......


A little sparkle on the mantle......



 I added some old vintage lace doilies to the garland of greenery and burlap...


 I just love the simple look of these burlap stockings.....


 Some old ice skates on the banister......



A few red berries to add some color.....


  A Happy little wooden snowman.....


Christmas is a time of celebration.....
A time of joy and hope....
A time to add a little sparkle and color.....
A little simplicity....
A little happy......
A time given for the young and old....
A time to Celebrate!

All for one reason.......

JESUS!!!!

Celebrate the Reason for the Season...


2 Corinthians 9:15  
Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.


Christmas Blessings!

  9. It is all so cute! I love the mantle, but I think the skates are my favorite. They look so cute hanging on the banister with red berries tucked in. Such a creative idea!

  10. I am a big fan of you and your posts. Love the stockings. I so wanted some, but can't sew and can't afford from those who do:) Etsy is just a bit steep for me. The skates are so cutie patootie! Great idea to add the doilies to the garland. The star, the greatest reminder of WHO we should follow and what Christmas is all about.

    Merry Christmas, if I don't visit again before:)
