Blue Monday with Jen at J.Nichelle....


Today I'm joining Sally for Blue Monday... For more Blue Monday posts visit Sally and see who's playing along!


Today I had to share this treasure that I purchased from Jen at J.Nichelle. Jen creates the most beautiful vintage holiday treasures you've ever seen! Just look at this sweet beauty! (Sally, I know you'll be coveting this one!)
Jen will be soon be creating Easter and Wedding themed treasures and posting them in her Etsy shoppe and on Ebay... so drop by her blog and look at all the beauty she creates!
Thanks Jen. I love my new treasures down here in French Lique!

Oh Dixie sweetie...
I am so loving this blue vignette. How beautiful these bottle brush trees are. So very elegant and serene looking. Oh my how I love it. The blue balls are just the crowning touch. The reindeers look so beautiful arranged around. Jen did a beautiful job.

I just love it. Thank you for sharing this morning sweetie.

Have a Happy New Year, and thank you for the wonderful blogger memories in 2009.

Country hugs sweetie...Sherry

What a wonderful way of gathering old treasures into one beautiful piece. On their own they are pretty, but together...Oh Mylanta!

I am flattered to say the least Love the way you put the deer in the front, it's nice to see someone gets the reason why I don't attach the top :) Hope you are having a fabulous holiday! Did it have to snow on the first Christmas we leave Texas? too funny! Enjoy your treasures and thanks for being such a sweetie!

Hello from Canada Dixie
I have to ask you first...what is the tag hanging from your chandelier from? I was born in 1956 and I love the "Desert Rose" name. Just wondering.
Now for Jen's beauty. I had my eye on one from Etsy since last year. I said I was going to make one...but that never happened. Look at yours...so beautiful. those little reindeer are precious. I LOVE IT
happy blue Monday
Love Claudie
xoxo
P.S. My mom and dad had a clock just like the one behind your treasure.

Hello Dixie! I LOVE that wonderful creation you shared on this post. There are so many vintage items combined to form that lovely decoration!

So, you had a white Christmas, too! We had about 8" on top of an inch of sleet....we're still piled high and expecting 2 more inches tomorrow!

I LOVED your Christmas card....I wish you a great New Year, Dixie! L, Dana
