A Christmas Without Bears?
I spent the weekend decorating for Christmas like many of you. My husband drug out all the boxes, stacked them in the center of the garage and asked “are you doing the bears this year?” ” Think I’ll skip a year” I said. “Maybe they’re getting a bit old, year after year.”
And then tonight I found these pictures…
“So you’re done now, right? I can put all these boxes away?” “Yes, all finished!”, I said. But that was before I found the photos.
I don’t have the heart to tell him my little friends can’t sit outside in plastic bins. I don’t know where I’ll put them now that all the decorations are up, but they have to come in and be part of our holiday tradition. Call me sentimental. He’s put away all the boxes so I think I’ll just link him to this blog post. Who can resist these bears?
While I’m working on finding a place for my bears, I found another picture for you! Would you like to win a few of these tiny little bundles? Packages of 2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ squares of Lily & Will II!
Leave me a comment and 12 of you are going to win 3 little bundles each of yellow and aqua Lily & Will II! Oh the fun you can have with these little squares! I’ll announce the 12 winners Friday December 3rd!
Have a great week everyone!
Hugs,
Anne

Oh Anne! You are so generous! I have a teddy bear collection that I have cultivated over the last 20+ years. I even have some lovely bears from the town of Eaton, England. It was a business trip….you should have seen me trying to get them into luggage! In the end, I carried them on board the plane with their heads poking out of a teddy bear bag. The flight crew liked them so much they cut me a lot of slack about not fitting under the seat! ;0

Love the bears! That’s a great idea to have them out at the holidays. It’s nice to switch out decorations throughout the year.
