Christmas Ornament Exchange

Hello my lovely friends!
In my last post I shared with you
my heartfelt gratitude towards you as faithful followers
of "She Graces her Home in God's Beauty".
I want to tell each and every one of you
that your precious love filled comments
greatly blessed my heart.
The Lord used you and your comments 
in His own special way to touch my soul.
Thank you once again for your precious friendship!
I love you all!

I had the wonderful opportunity to join in on the fun over at Vicky's

for her third Christmas ornament exchange. 

With joy, I participated in her first exchange three years ago

and met two lovely ladies through the exchange. 
I wasn't able to make her second exchange
but was delighted that I could join in this time around.

I met Vicky before I first started blogging
through my dear Stephanie
and would visit her blog periodically
and came to just love her!
Vicky is quite the talented  lady.
She amazes me time after time with her great Thrifty finds 
and then showing us her delightful makeovers.

I was given Julie's name, from Julie's Lifestyle blog
 and had the most delightful time shopping for her.
Julie collects angels, and there is a wonderful little
shoppe in a town about an hour away from where I live
 that I just knew would have what I was looking for.
Here's a picture of what I sent Julie,
but please, stop in and visit her blog.

   

Donna over at Distressed Donna Down Home
graciously, and I mean graciously
gifted me with a box overflowing with vintage treasures.
Just look at all the beauty that poured out of the box.

 Some gorgeous vintage post cards

An angel ornament and mini brush Christmas trees with a darling little wooden star

 

 Look at these miniature hand crafted needle work ornaments, lovely!

Beautiful work went into crafting these precious treasures.

They will grace the miniature Christmas tree in our kitchen

quite beautifully.

 

I understand Donna is known for making these

pipe cleaner ornaments for many of her exchanges.

 

 Some beautiful dainty lace ( one of my loves )

and a plaque with the music ADESTE FIDELES printed on the back.

I'm going to have my daughter Stephanie

play it on her piano for me.

 

Thank you again Donna, for the lovely gift package
filled with so many lovely vintage treasures.

And a BIG thank you to Vicky
for your wonderful exchange that you so graciously put together
so that we have the opportunity of meeting
other ladies from around the globe.
God bless you!


Blessings to you in the beauty of this season
as we prepare our hearts for the 
birth of our Savior

Joy to you!
~ Debbie ~ 

I will be joining the party with Vicky at
Life on Willy Mae Lane
