Jingle all the way






















We just love our MI stone wood burning fireplace. The mantle is a beam that's over 100 yrs old! I'm sure you noticed a theme among these pictures...hmm, could it be jingle bells?!? Yes, it's true, I've loved them since I was a little girl; I even wore them on my shoes laces!
I hope y'all have a blessed Christmas with loved ones all around. Take a moment to reflect on why we celebrate Christmas...God sent the best gift ever...HIS son. Merry Christmas !

Love the pictures of your decorations, BUT your fireplace is to die for! I'm sure that comes in handy living where you do! How nice!

Hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas!

What is it about 'rusty stuff' That just charms me? Maybe it is the seasoned look... the 'I've lasted through time look'... I don't know. Beautiful fire place. Merry Christmas.

Hi Jules. I love your decorations. We have a stone fireplace in our family room just about like yours and the mantle looks almost the same too. It is not as old as yours though. We have a fireplace in the living room but it is made of wood.
I hope your day is being blessed.
