Dept 56 New England Christmas Village #WW

Ho-Ho-Ho, kittens and dawgs! Yesterday, I featured two flash mob videos for round one of December’s BoTB to kick off the Christmas season. I hope you’ll check it out here and play along.

I love every thing about Christmas. Please indulge my inner child and have fun with me.

This is a scene from last Christmas I snapped of my Dept. 56 New England Village. That’s the Old North Church from Boston, ME and Addy’s Bed and Breakfast. These were the first two buildings DH got me for Christmas 1992.

I have prints of my darling daughters; ages 2 and 4 mesmerized with the lighted buildings and figurines. They were such sweet little girls; always respectful to not disturb the fragile pieces without help.

I bumped the exposure a bit so you can see the pieces better.

Thinking about presents under the tree got those gears turning in my noggin’. I’m always short when it comes to having the right box on hand for gift giving. I stumbled upon this Christmas Pencil Box template (freebie) that not only cute, but it could serve as a life saver and I knew I had to share it with you. Just so you’ll know because I’m a good friend insert cheesy grin I shared another freebie on my BoTB post.

 



Thanks for joining the fun. I hope you’ll decide to visit a few of my favorite #WW shutterbugs link ups! Have a fototastic day!
