Hello my friends!

*

Welcome to the 129th run of "Sunday Favorites"
*
I hope that you're having a wonderful weekend!  Wow...where does the time go to?
  The "Christmas Countdown" clock is ticking away....tic-toc...tic-toc!  Hehe!
*
  I have been busy...busy!  I'm sure that all of you have been busy as well...with
 Christmas preparations and all of the fun things that this season brings.  Honey and I
 have just decided that we will be driving to Texas to spend Christmas with my three
 daughters and all my grandchildren.  I am soooo excited!  It has been a very long
 time since we have all been together for Christmas. 
*
Sunday Favorites Cancelled for Dec. 25th and Jan. 1st.
*
In light of my absence and because Christmas falls on a Sunday this year...
I will be cancelling the December 25th Sunday Favorites party.  I know that
 everyone will be busy with their families anyway.  I am also cancelling the Sunday
 Favorites party scheduled for January 1, 2012 as well.  I'll just be getting home
 from our travels.  I will miss all of you and your wonderful reposts.  We'll
continue to the regular Sunday Favorites schedule for January 8, 2012.
  So I'll see you then! 
*
Today for Sunday Favorites...I am revisiting a post from December
 27, 2010...called "And...It's a Wrap".  I hope that you enjoy!
*
 Well my friends...I'm looking forward to seeing your Sunday Favorites
 posts this week and visiting with you!  You can sign up for the party at the
 end of this post!

*

Have a super Sunday!

"And ...It's a Wrap"
*

*
Hello my friends...I hope you're having a fabulous day!
*
Myyyy...ohhh MY! Christmas has come...and gone! I don't know about
 you, but the week that follows Christmas is always kind of a let down for me.
 All the busyness of the season...slows...and it's time to get things back to normal!
 I love Christmas and it would be just fine by me...if it never ended! Hehe!

*

I hope that each of you had a wonderful and blessed Christmas! I
 certainly did! My two step-children are still here visiting. I will be spending
 the week enjoying them...and I will begin the arduous process of putting away all
 the Christmas decor. Yesterday I purchased several nice, heavy plastic storage
 bins.  I'm hoping to go through all of my Christmas and organize it a bit!
 It may take me awhile...eeeks!

*

Anyway, I will be back next week. In the meantime, I thought I would
 share just a bit more of the silver and white Christmas decor in my french
 country dining room (there are a few new photos taken from a different angle in
 my dining room).  I just loved how it turned out...I'm still really enjoying it! I
 have decided to leave it...as is...at least for the month of January! It looks
 January Wintery! I hope you enjoy! I will see you soon, sweet friends!!!

Shimmering Silver and Sparkling White
"Wintery January"
*

*

A vintage silver soup tureen filled with mercury glass ornaments...nestled into
 fresh pine boughs...serves as the table centerpiece in my dining room.

*
I added white pearl berry picks into the pine greenery...along with a few mercury
 glass pinecones and silver/white ornaments.

*

*

White organza ribbon...twirls and swirls...around the jeweled
 mercury glass ornaments!
*
 I love this look! I just threaded the ribbon through the loops on the top of the ornaments.

*

*

*
*

*

Hmmm...I guess I will take the "NOEL" signs out of the
centerpiece for January...otherwise the rest can stay!
*
...and...

*
It's a Wrap!

*

*

Saying so long to Christmas 2010!
 It was fabulous!
*
Well my friends...I'm so glad that you stopped by today for a visit!

 It won't be long till we are ringing in a brand new year! Ohhh my...where
 did 2010 go to? Hehe!
*
Warmest Wishes!

*

Add a "visible" link for the Sunday Favorites party to your blog post or add
 the Sunday Favorites button from my sidebar.

The link leading back to Happy To Design should be a "visible" link in
 your post...not "Parties Here" or "Find the parties that I am linking to in my
 sidebar" or somewhere else is...unacceptable!   No one should have to
 search for the parties you are joining.

*

 actually published to your blog.  If you are participating in Sunday Favorites,
 please be sure to add your permalink and not your general blog address.
*
If you have found that your link has been deleted...then it was not following
 the guidelines.  Please read the instructions and try again.

Thank you so much for your participation!!! I am going to really enjoy going
 through your "Sunday Favorites" posts!!!

***Just a little note: Sunday Favorites Criteria***

*

When I first started the Sunday Favorites meme, my initial thought was to
 offer a solution for getting a post out on the weekend without having to spend alot
 of time doing so...weekends are just a busy time for most of us! Copying and pasting
 a previous post is so quick and easy. Not only is this a quick and easy solution to
 the busy weekends, but it's also an opportunity to dig back into our blog archives
 and share a favorite "past" post once again! Many of us spend alot of time and
 effort creating a post and it just seems a shame that it is viewed only once
 and then forgotten about!

*

I would like to reiterate that Sunday Favorites is a meme about sharing or
 revisiting a post from the PAST!  Please do not add a freshly published post
 to the Sunday Favorites party...it is NOT what this party is about.

*

Thank you!!!
