It's a bittersweet time of year. Pretty leaves, cloudy skies. Hot mulled cider, chilly weather. All those lovely Christmas ornaments I acquired over the summer, ready to go out in the world.
The time of year when I wonder if it would really be so wrong to keep another box of ornaments.
Or two.
Maybe just a little set of Santas?
Or the snowmen?
(OK, the snowmen are kind of killing me. I did keep one for myself. Even so ...)
Anyway, my first batch of Christmas ornaments are hitting eBay this week, with more to come. (I was going to say that I'll open for Christmas on Etsy on Oct. 15, but holy cow, that's a week from tomorrow! Maybe 15ish.)
I'm going to go spend some quality time with the snowmen now.
I don't know how you part with all the lovelies you find! hugs, Linda

I'm glad you held onto a snowman. They are simply adorable. You do have some lovely Christmas treasures.

You can't keep them all, but happy one of the snowmen stole your heart.

Wait, why can't you keep them all? Oh, right, that hoarder thing. Got it.
