Wishing You Love and Joy

Sending some homemade love from our home to yours this holiday season. Hope you find time to embrace the beauty of simple things. Our son Max loves creating, and over the last few weeks has covered our Christmas tree in the most beautiful origami. I find each of them to be so extraordinary, simple and graceful….everyone more delicious than the last.

Thought you’d enjoy these as much as we are.



Thanks for being the lovely people you are, sending love and cheer to you!
xoxo,

T.

Tracy…your Max is very talented and what a great idea for a X-mas decoration. Oragami!!! Excellant Max!!
It’s getting to the end before the holiday and hustle and bustle of last minute details before the big family dinner tomorrow. Hope everyone is keeping their sanity and having a glass a wine while you wrap gifts or get a minute to sit before the next thing you have to do. Wishing you all a very wonderful Holiday and a lot of good cheer!!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!
This has been a very busy holiday season. The last of our guests will be leaving today. Too quiet in the house after that. A whirlwind season, never did get to put up as many decorations as I would have liked…my favorite thing to do, however, everything looked very festive, and we had a wonderful Christmas. Tracy your tree looked so pretty with the Origami. I have memories of our daughter doing much the same when she was younger. Take care all!
