  • Hello Candi, Congratulations on this delightful Christmas featured. Late comment I know, but just flew home yesterday after a visit to family in Calif. Your Ornaments are beautiful and you did a fantastic job painting them. I always love the personal touched ornaments the best of all, and still have several my grown up forty + old children painted, or made in their youth. Well dear lady enjoy you Christmas and best wishes to you and yours. Laura

You must have had a wonderful time creating those ornaments - they will be long lasting memories of your Christmases past and they add so much joy to the holidays.

Thanks for the sweet message on my featured album today. I also owe you thanks for another album that was featured not too long ago, but ever since Thanksgiving time, I've been way behind in getting back to people in their guestbooks. I feel bad about it; the holidays really keep us all hopping, don't they? Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Hugs, Sharon

  • Hello Candi, Nice ornaments and it is a marvelous personal touch for your tree. I like the dog, "Waiting For Santa Paws"; you have excellent lighting for it. Who is the lady in the background of Santa going down the chimney? Is it Christmas Carol? Mary Christmas? Wanda Cookie? (Oh good grief, he's off on the puns again!) I'm sure your tree really does look great with all of your decorated ornaments. (OOO, OOO, OOO! Is she Angel Cake? OK, put it away, Carl.) Hope your holidays are the best days possible, and then a little bit better, kind of like frosting on the Christmas cookies. Take care. Love and hugs and God bless, Carl

  • Hi Candi...These ornaments are gorgeous!!! What a beautiful tree you have with these special ornaments. There are none that I do not like, but I think some favs are the mice, the doggies, the teddy bears and I love the angel with the trumpet, but so many more too. hugs and Merry Christmas, Barbara
