My Favorite Christmas Vignettes

Christmas is just one week away! Although I’ve been busy decorating and shopping, I never forget the true meaning of Christmas and the celebration of Christ’s birth … God’s greatest gift to the world! I like to think the creative expression of decorating is a reflection of God’s creative nature. After all, if we’re made in God’s image and God is creative, it follows that each one of us is creative in some way, shape or form. In celebration of that creativity, I’m sharing some of my favorite Christmas vignettes with you .

  8. Your vignettes are just beautiful, Jennifer! I had forgotten that I had some vintage pink ornaments in the attic that I had in my booth last year that didn’t sell. I meant to use them this year, but at this point I will just pass on them until next year. I think just even using them in a wood tote or tureen would be a nice simple touch.
