Christmas still life. Of some of my Christmas stuff.
My almost empty cookie tin that we have had for years. My fun nutcracker bear, a new addition this year. Cutie oranges, a Christmas tradition since they showed up in the toe of my stocking when I was a girl. And reminders that I try to keep around the house of the true reason for Christmas.
Stuff can waste our time and clutter our lives. But it can also scream out who we are and what we cherish. And the stuff I see around the house constantly brings a smile to my face. For past memories and new traditions in the making.

Very neat snapshot of meaningful Christmas items... (although I don't think my security word is very Christmassy - pothed).
I love the Christmas trinkets that we have acquired over the years. Especially the boys' creations :)
