o Christmas tree!

Here she is, in all her glory. Yes, my tree is a she. Fruits, flowers and butterflies abound. Pears and pinecones throughout. Tiny little fruits. I hope you like it. Christmas 09 054

I made the flowers – there are about 20 on the tree, white and snowy …. Christmas 09 055

Two of my favorite ornaments – I got the moon and the star on a vacation years ago, and love them still. Christmas 09 056


Our angel watches over our tree every year. A gift from my dad our first married Christmas. (sorry dad, I am still glad I chose this one instead of the large light up star!) I love it when something I chose is something I would choose all over again, even years later … Christmas 09 057

A few little Christmas sweets …

The birds and the bees, and the butterflies and flowers …

Some red and gold and candy canes…

And there you have it. A Clark Christmas tree … I may post some more favorites, but right now, I am so happy my tree is up. I think I’ll go curl up in my favorite chair, in the sunniest spot in the house, with a good book. Then I can admire this old girl while we have her. Merry Christmas everyone. Hope the season brings you love, joy, peace and hope… xoxo, Stephanie

  2. I've had them all a while ... One stand was from a store in the city that went out of business a few years ago, the little french pastry ones were from AI Friedman art store a few years ago, and the red and white cake stands were from anthropologie about 5 years ago. The cupcake stand was from Runcible Spoon in Newport. I will keep my eyes open for you if I see any more.

    Glad you made it out! Hang in there! and thank you too, for coming by, and being such a sweetheart!
