  1. Hi Kelly, I am so glad to have discovered your blog! It’s a treat every time!!! I loved the Christmas tour! I was wondering about the burlap Christmas tree sign over your fireplace. DId you make that or can that be purchased somewhere? I love it! Love the wooden stockings, too! I saw them last year and meant to get my husband to make me some, but we’ve have too many other projects to keep him busy. I should try to be a “big girl” and work the saw myself!!!
