A Christmas Vignette Downunder

It is that time of year again when I get to
create a small Christmas Vignette
to celebrate what this event
means to us here!

Our Christmas "tree" consists of several branches
from our Bay tree growing in our back garden
with its deep rich green shiny leaves,






these most exotic "Christmas Lillies"
with their perfume so divine




as well as a cluster of gum nuts from some of our Australian 
gum trees.







The yellow glow of the candle lit evening here
gives a perfectly serene feel against
the soft shades and the metallic greys


in the form of angels, hearts, silver trees and pine cones.











The inclusion of a few added handmade gifted
decorations from friends


makes this event so much more special! 













My rustic garland of Mother and Child


brings home the message that a Saviour is born!



And these are just a few little reminders of why
we celebrate this most auspicious occasion.
I'm linking this vignette to Our Beautiful World and
Mosaic Monday at Dear Little Red House



Thank you so very much dear friends for your company,
support, friendship and inspiration which you
have provided throughout the year.
These memories have been well etched into my heart
for which I sincerely "thank you"!

I trust that your Christmas will be full of love, light and joy
and that the New Year will bring even more of the same
with all of your creative inspirations!

Love and hugs, Suzy xox

Christmas card for someone special!

on our antique dresser












And this is what we celebrate -
The birth of Christ-
a Christian Avatar


Mother and Child




with some gifts to share
to celebrate
the birth











and to remember the lovely friends we have
in our lives for whom we are very grateful!










and to be able to pick these most fragrant
Christmas Lillies
to fill our home
whilst we celebrate this festive season.




a handmade wreath from our home-grown
Wisteria, gum nuts, pine cones
and holly 




as well as these beautiful leaves and foiliage
which grows naturally on our property -
Wild Cherry and Pittosproum
with it dark green glossy leaves and tiny
fragrant flowers.

Wishing all blogging friends, old and new a most joyous and peaceful Festive Season
and 
 tranquility whilst we share precious
time with friends and family.

Thank you all dear friends for your continued support
throughout the year -
you mean so much to me.

with love,
