Glittery Christmas Stuff

This Santa was originally a boring white. This year I dolled him up in bright Southwest colors, stuck on a  bunch of paste gems and buttons, and added glitter to his beard. I like him this way!

I made a ton of Christmas ornaments out of tin can lids, and added some vintage beads and lots of bling.

I love sparkly trees. I added some chile lights to my little fake Alpine tree this year, and they look great with my Mexican tin ornaments.

(Note to self: in this post, I downloaded the images first, then added captions. Once again, I cannot add any text to the space above the first photo. Next time I will try typing the text first and inserting the photos.)
