This time of the year is so busy, and I still don’t have up all the usual decorations that I normally get put up. Last night Connor spent the night and helped me set up this nativity. I’ve had this one for  awhile, and can’t remember where it came from…but it was either a yard sale or thrift store. I like it because the pieces are so big! It has a few nicks and so on, but I’m still going to  hang on to it! Hope all of you have a wonderful Christmas. I will start back with 2nd Time Around in Jan of 2012!

2nd Time Around: Facelift for 1950’s Furniture

This retro dresser from the 1950’s has been given a cheery coat of red and distressed. This piece is at the Flea Market where I have one of my booths. I’m especially interested in keeping note of it-the dresser was from the estate of my late mother in law! The vendor who bought it does a wonderful job with her painted furniture.  This would make an awesome piece to use with a flat screen TV!

Thanks for stopping by, and please add your link to your 2nd Time Around post to Mr. Linky below.

These pictures below are of my tree! It is more than the 2nd time around for it and all the ornaments, but I felt like it qualified for the post!

Sometimes I would love to redo and go for a different look, but storage space would be difficult!

Anyway, I love my tree, and always enjoy the lights especially late at night!
