I do have garden themed Christmas ornaments, There are even some that I like to put on a tree in the courtyard, when a suitable tree is residing there.

Would you believe I don't have one?? If there is a theme to my decorating it's angels--not too original, I know, but I much prefer them to pigs:)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-34209736585107568922009-12-13T18:41:46.995-05:002009-12-13T18:41:46.995-05:00Porcine decor at its finest?

I thought those were really cute when they came out. I'd like to join you on the ornament display if you don't mind?

I have lots of glass icicles because we get so few ice storms here that I needed some to help remind me it's winter. I have many little bird ornaments. Mostly, I have old-fashioned, handmade toys ornaments--things that evoke childhood of an earlier mss @ Zanthan Gardenshttp://www.zanthan.com/gardens/gardenlog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-26085527470440437032009-12-13T10:11:41.899-05:002009-12-13T10:11:41.899-05:00I had a thing for pigs, too.

Still am, although I don't put the little wooden pig ornaments on the tree anymore. They're in a trunk along with an assortment of brass, china, pottery, iron and other pigs. <br />Now I just have penguins on the treeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107236871193698777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-81128599716803021402009-12-13T10:06:13.637-05:002009-12-13T10:06:13.637-05:00my welcome pig has a few oinks to settle with you!...my welcome pig has a few oinks to settle with you!

These plastic blow up giant things that sit in front yards on different holidays are a bit over the top. Thank goodness I only see a few when driving into a nearby town. I think your snowman with the hose is great... I almost did not see the hose until you pointed it out.

You can certainly see the love of nature in our house. I don't think having gardening items on your tree is odd at all. This coming from a person that has a garland dedicated to birds AND a gardland dedicated to gardening not to mention the overflow on the tree.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-12111620080576957382009-12-13T07:02:12.122-05:002009-12-13T07:02:12.122-05:00No pigs here either.

Why?? They are smelly, rough skinned brutes (now having worked with them, very briefly). I do love the taste of their meat though :)<br />Your snowman on the other hand is very stylish, I like him a lot.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475182740888543862noreply@blogger.com
