My Little Found Christmas Treasures

I found some nice little Christmas Treasures today on my trip to town.It was just a streak of luck because my daughter ,the grands and I were going to bank and Wal Mart only today.When we got to the bank the person we needed to see was gone to lunch,so I said let's go to Dirt Cheap and spend 30 minutes while waiting for her to get back from lunch.I am sure some of you know what Dirt Cheap is ,but for those that do not it is a store that sells things from fire and water damage stores and returns from stores.Sometimes you can find great deals and other times they might not have much.Great example is about 6 months ago I got a Bunn coffee maker for $15.00,now that was a deal.Today on our unexpected trip to Dirt Cheap I got some wonderful Christmas treasures.The ones in the pics plus a snow family,snowman standing on a snowflake,sm. snowman ornie,and another snowman and stocking figurine.All of those where taken home by my daughter who is collecting snowmen.

Tree Topper that was .50 cent Ice skate ornament that cost.10 cents
Angel Ornament,I got two of these for .15 each.

snowboard with shoes ,boots and goggles .15

Oh this is one of the snowman families my daughter got,she forgot it in the car so I did get a pic of it and the one below.This one cost .50 cents

this one here cost.30 cents

My Santa Claus that I got for .75 cents

I also got an ice crystal wreath for $2.00 ,The total of my whole little shopping spree of found Christmas treasures was a little over $9.00,so I think I did pretty well today,everything in the Christmas isles was 95% off,hope to go back after Christmas and see what else I might find.

Christmas Ornaments and Stockings

I have a love of Christmas Ornaments and Prim Ornies.Every year close to Christmas I start making new ornaments for my tree and to swap with friends on line.It is such fun to swap with others and see what different ornaments you get in the mail.The ones in the pictures were made for a swap.I also love making stockings and dressing them up with ribbons and pearls.I started the stocking making when my children were small.They each have the stocking I made them when they were small hanging at their homes now.Along with one for each of their children and their spouse,All my nieces and nephews have stockings too.I have 17 stockings that hang in my house for Christmas one for each grandchild,when I decorate I will have to take a picture and post it. These two stockings are made with velvet. t These are made with camouflage for the boys.

Here in the south little boys start hunting early

so they like the camouflage Prim Star with Rusty Bells

Beads strung on fishing line and ribbon.

These were made for a swap,I am going to

have to do more of these for myself and

my daughters and daughter in law.
