And thank you too for the walk down memory lane - we made tons of pomanders when we were young and I had totally forgotten about them. Such a great scent throughout the house. And YAY for your BIG tree!!! In my mind, the bigger, the better. A very Merry Christmas to you and yours.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05578906262073646500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259558187936840360.post-85047282811685538002019-12-21T18:01:43.276-05:002019-12-21T18:01:43.276-05:00Barb what a treat.

We never got back to take it down.<br /><br />One of the truly special things we have is from Bethlehem. My hubbies first corporate aircraft sales positions was with an Israeli company and the whole sales unit and spouses got to go over to the factory and tour the whole country. We were told that we needed yo look for a Crèche. We looked and looked then a local sidled up next to us and said he could show us the best made ones. We were a bit cautious but he was very polite. The vendor was tremendous. It folds up for storage and contains the whole scene. You would have loved it. Thanks for giving me a good Christmas fix. Florida is not as Christmassy for me...<br />Janejane nj/wihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05647265942303671745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259558187936840360.post-5366782823650110522019-12-20T08:26:27.740-05:002019-12-20T08:26:27.740-05:00Thank you Janet!

I love them all! I especially love that you make the pomanders. I always made them as a child for my grandmother. She loved them so much that for the 38 years that I taught elementary school, my class made them for local nursing homes. Now that my mom is gone, I still love to make one in her memory.

One year we couldn't get it in the door, another it was so tall we just cut the top off and it went right to the ceiling in between the beams. When my little niece came over she was so amazed...."Look Mommy aunt shirl's tree goes right through the ceiling!!" As a prank we saved the top and I decorated and put it in the middle of the floor of bedroom above so it looked like the tree went right through from downstairs. I took her upstairs to see the angel on top of the tree.It was so funny. Have a wonderful holiday!Shirl Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12925269190494189988noreply@blogger.com
