After putting up some wreaths in the windows of the house the other day, I started feeling bad for the shop being left out of the Christmas spirit so I decided to do a little something about it. I thought that a trip to Michael's to buy plastic wreaths or garland just wouldn't do so I headed out to the woods with some shears and visions of Colonial Williamsburg at Christmas. This is what I've come up with so far.
| The front door. Some long needle pine branches wired together with some berries from a bush who's name escapes me right now |
| The Colonial Williamsburg bird bottle stuffed with crow's foot and the mystery berries |
| And a little Christmas cheer inside the shop. More crow's foot and mystery berries in the window sill over the bench |
| Still need to figure out something for under the window. Looks kinda bare I think. Maybe just a swag of more pine branches |

Hi Jamie,
Very festive...I like it. You're right, your window needs something. Maybe a wreath and some boughs? Definitely a candle or two inside it!
Merry Christmas!

Leave milk and cookies and maybe Santa will leave you something nice out there!
Hey, that's worth a shot Marshal. Wonder what kind of cookies I'd need to leave for a Clark and Williams plow plane. Or a half set of hollows and rounds from Matt Bickford or Clark and Williams. I'm thinking those would take a lot more than milk and cookies. ;-)
Love it Jamie:) The swag under the window was perfect!
