Starting to decorate

Hello Folks ~ Low temp this morning 65 and real feel was 61. It has felt good all day having cooler temps. Right now at 5:46 pm EST it is 70 real feel 66. Tonight it is supposed to get down into the 50's. YAY!!

Thank you all for kind words of encouragement on my last post. My heart was blessed.

This morning I went out early to Walmart to get one item, and ended up getting some Christmas bits and pieces. I had the idea of 'purple' and found pieces but had no idea what I was going to do with them exactly. After I got home, an idea came to mind and I started acting on it.

As I was editing photos, I realized I should go back to Walmart for 2 more of the purple poinsettias. Here is the tree as it is now. I also need some kind of lighting, I need to see what I have in my stash of lights from last year. I either need something overhead to make it be lit up, of string lights.

 This is after I copied and pasted on two more of the flowers. Makes a difference. Oooops, I see another adjustment I need to make looking at this photo now.

Here are some artsy pictures. This was the last piece I picked out and it made me laugh with joy.

 

 Here is one of the two purple hummers, they did not have feathers.

 

 Here is the other one.

 

One of three purple poinsettias.

 

Here is another one. You can see the glittery spirals, 20 to the box, but I actually got 23. ;-)

 

Next is an unknown red rose that has a wonderful rosey scent.

 

And, I'm happy to say that when Miss Bea saw her new robe she broke out into a smile and said "I love it". I asked her if I could take a picture of her in it to post on my blog to share with you  and she said yes. She is a dear and we both feel God led us to each other when we needed each other.

Ok, that's it for now. It is really hard to believe that the holidays are so close. Enjoy all of the preparations, good times with family and friends and be thankful.
