Christmas Spirit Down South




****************************************************************************Don't let anyone say that there is no Christmas spirit in the warm, sunny south. There's not much room in some of these little trailers but we do what we can.

Picture #2 shows my dollar store Xmas tree covered in dollar store and yard sale ornaments. The lovely table cover was bought for 10 cents at a yard sale. The cards are from loving friends. Forgive the poor focus of the picture...the sun was shining a little too brightly through the window.

Picture #1 is a darned good heavy metal sleigh bought for $5 at a yard sale. I covered pocket books and an empty wine bottle with foil wrapping paper to look like gifts and filled in with a few dollar store bows.

I also have a dollar store wreath on the front door.

This is Christmas decorating on a budget but still proving that the Christmas spirit is alive and well in Florida.

Merry Chrismas...and now I'm going to the pool!
