Well, no…but Christmas is definitely beginning to hit the stores (earlier and earlier every year, it seems!), and I for one, love it. I would personally be happy to leave my Christmas tree up all year long…yes, I am one of THOSE people! 
But when I visit my favorite craft stores, there is a moment for me every fall, when I turn into an aisle and am faced with rows and rows of Christmas ribbon…and at the moment, I can practically hear the angel choir singing and see the beam of light shining down on all that beautiful, glittering, shimmering beauty. Yep, I am pretty ridiculous…but at the same time, my mind starts to go crazy with new ornament ideas for the upcoming holiday season.
This year, that moment occurred just last week, and inspiration led me to create a gorgeous “Winter Wonderland.” I know there are still several months until wintertime, but I just couldn’t resist the shimmering pale blue and white ribbons, and glittery snowflakes. The ornaments came together so beautifully, and the first is up for auction now on ebay…
The second ornament, “Wonderland,” will go up for auction next week. I am also taking orders for the set if you would rather not bid on ebay…if you are interested in ordering one or both, just send an email to me at staciann@theornamentgirl.com. Keep in mind that I have a waiting list…I am backed up by several hundred ornaments at this time. (but I am working my little fingers as fast as I can!)

I have created two brand new ornaments for my Snowflake Collection. They are absolutely stunning, featuring layers of sheer, pale blue and white ribbons, with shimmering sequined snowflakes in the centers, and pearl and silver beaded snowflakes adorning the tops. These ornaments will be the shining stars of the Christmas tree this year!

Here is a unique gift idea I wanted to share, from a fellow work at home mom…beautiful ornaments made from real egg shells! Although made from egg shells, they all have coatings on them that make them just as strong as any glass ornament and some are even stronger than glass! There are glittered ornaments, silk print ornaments, smaller ones with other designs on them….and all at wonderful, affordable prices. Here is my favorite:
There are even more unique gift ideas to see on the website as well. Be sure to check it out at Michigan Egg Connection.

My kids and I were really excited to put up the Christmas tree this year, so we got started on it on Thanksgiving. Our scrawny little Christmas tree has been a bit on the wobbly side for a couple of years now, but I was hoping I could make it last just one more season. Well…it made it through the night, but a leg on the plastic stand snapped and it literally came crashing down, ornaments and all, the next day, lol.
But I did get one last picture of it before it came to it’s dramatic end. We have a little tradition…I hand the ornaments to my kids one at a time and they hang them. Well, my son Cody got bored after hanging only a few, so the majority of the first box of ornaments were hung by my daughter Abby, who is pretty tiny. I had to take a picture of the tree…I couldn’t help but laugh at the placement of the ornaments. There are a few ornaments in the middle and at the top from when Cody was involved…but Abby obviously couldn’t reach very high!
(And don’t laugh at the extremely gaudy tree skirt…I just can’t help myself sometimes! lol)
At least I had a good excuse to get a new tree. Here is our new, slightly taller, Christmas tree (after I did a little ornament re-arranging):
