15th day of Christmas

Keeping it real and keeping it green! My little cowgirl and I went out and gathered a few armloads of greens from around the yard yesterday. Pine, spruce and some cones now fill a basket by the fireplace in the family room. Notice on top of the stove, one of my early Christmas presents-from some special parishioners of ours. It's a natural cast-iron humidifier. I've discovered that throwing a few spices or cinnamon sticks in the water, makes for a lovely scent.
Juniper and cookie cutters tied with twine hang from the chandelier in the kitchen.
Juniper and juniper berries accompany the rooster in his barn cage.
A bouquet of juniper and various 'sticks' grace the living room mantle.
I love the way my house smells about now.
