A Little more Christmas

Here are a few more details of 'The Event'.A detail of the 'Christmas Wall of Fame'. This one is Bronwyn's I think.
Some of the details of the dining room have disappeared. There were candy canes in the glasses. The elves had second thoughts.

Is this really . . . no - nobody would be so tacky . . .


It is! A TP tree. There are no scruples when it comes to decorating 'cheap'. And anyway, there's always that fine line in art between whimsy and bad taste.




For a tin foil garland, take a long line of filament, tie one end around the middle of a 8 x 8 peice of slightly scrunched tin foil, finish scrunching. Repeat this step along the line and add a curly ribbon bow.



For lampshade covers, take off a shade and make a pattern (I used newsprint). Now cut as many as you need out of your favorite wrapping paper.





The master bedroom took on a little more dignity and reverence. The photograph over the bed is missing - try to imagine the most beautiful image of the Manti temple. Jay is a very fine photographer - his love is architecture, landscape, and cowboy life.
Dinner and a party calls, more to come later. Merry Christmas! Only 12 days away.
