The Gifts

 A few of the gifts we got this year. Among other things, we each got a basket. Here is mine.


One thing that was in it, you can see a bit in the back, was this gorgeous frame with the granddaughter's photo in it. It is a cut wood design under glass.


And this Pioneer Woman travel mug.


I made a new centerpiece for the kitchen table today. But I don't think I like it. It is different pinecones Maybe it needs to have more added?

That frame is gorgeous. Of course the picture of the granddaughters inside it is the best treasure of all.
I've seen those Pioneer Woman travel mugs. That is a pretty one.
I like your centerpiece. It's perfect for winter.

The frame and your granddaughters are lovely. Such treasures.
I guess this is the year of gift baskets.
I made one for my son and daughter in law, one for each granddaughter and their husbands. The other son and family get a "Gift Box" since we have to mail the gifts out of state.
Lovely pinecones. place them in a bowl to give them some height perhaps.

Baskets of goodies are the best.

You received some wonderful and thoughtful gifts for Christmas. What a cute Wintery frame that holds a cherished photo of your grandchildren. That Pioneer Woman mug is really cute too. I always love to see what's new in her kitchen collection. ; )
