The favorite Christmas tradition, of course, was waiting for the arrival of Santa and opening the gifts! Here's a pic of me with my little pile of loot! I love the silver tree (which is popular again!)
I admit, I don't remember much. We were a Christmas Eve family, celebrating then and relaxing on Christmas Day. I still enjoy spending Christmas morning in church, hearing the Christmas story, singing carols, and going home to open gifts, watch a movie and enjoy the day.
These days, I enjoy decorating many trees - in miniature, of course. I wanted to show a few I've done.
This Christmas scene is in half-inch scale set in a small glass terrarium.
One thing about miniature - you can have lots of gifts! ha! This is a scene on a shelf in a vintage medicine cabinet on my kitchen wall.
For a change of pace, I decorated this tree for my smaller scale Halloween house. I painted it black, wrapped it in iridescent ribbon and put small clay eyeballs on the branches.

I love all you minis, they look like they are life size. Your tree and all the trimmings are so cute, Happy Pink Saturday, Char
You must have a lot of patience to work with such tiny pieces. The result is beautiful
