My Christmas tree helper

  This sweet yellow cat came to my home two years ago looking for food and he was so skinny.. I am an animal lover , as you might have guessed so I have adopted her.
 She is an inside -outside cat and comes as goes as she pleased but is always back at night for a warm bed inside and on a rainy day you will find her curled up in the recliner

  Today I am going to put my thrift store tree up. It is one that collapses into a round wreath for storage. It was $12.  and I know they cost  much money.  It needs a bit of sprucing up and some new ornaments.

 I don't know how much I will get done as my helper has her own

 ideas about where the beads of garland should go.

 My daughter Joy loved this big cat and would like to take it home with her. I had called it Buster but we learned it is a girl but a bit late to change her name now.

 Before I close I want to show some hand made ornaments that I bought at a yard sale for ten cents each.    I mentioned these in an earlier post so wanted to show some treasured needlework you don't see to much today.  There are many different kinds , so much work went into making these and then were discarded.. What old treasures.  There was a set that looked like Dorothy and her friends from the Wizard of Oz and I let my daughter Gwen take them and that is her favorite movie.

Here is a close up of the sweet little angel

 I hope everyone is having a nice Sunday   ..
