Last year I happened to be in the right place at the right time and scored big time! I walked in to Beverly Fabrics in our area and they were just about finished marking down their Christmas items - it was the first week in January and I guess for them, the season has gone on and on and on. I picked up my fair share of items and they were taking down items from the shelves near the ceiling.
They asked if I'd like these two cute little trees? I told them not really, there's only so much I can get in the car before my Sweetie says "STOP" and I really don't want to get there. "$5 each - and they come with the lights!" Still no go - "$5 for both?" Shook my head - then turned back around and said, "with the lights, both trees - $4 and I''ll take them." "They're yours!" "One thing - my Honey is on his way to pick me up, if he says OK, then OK." They are 3' trees, in a 12" antique gold pot, and really lit up well! The second goes up tomorrow in the nook! I really like it!
I'll see you tomorrow and show you the glass ornaments - and how they came to live on my tree for free - two years before the trees came to live here!
I love visiting all of your blogs to see the different ways we decorate. Your homes are just beautiful! I love all of the different ideas, colors, ribbons and bows!
Thank you for taking a look!
Blessings,
Donna

Hi Donna,
ReplyDeleteTwo dollars a tree? What a bargain and it looks so pretty and doesn't require a whole lot of space. Happy decorating this weekend.
