I told my wife, I wanted nothing.

We were scaling back this year, however she knows I have a fascination with trains and Christmas ornaments.
(Yes, I did buy her a present and she loved it !)
So look who showed up ?
She crafted them herself out totally of pine cones, sticks, and paint. Priceless.
(A couple red noses fell off.)
Great gifts for a guy that thought he had too much stuff.
I need stuff like this and I'm keeping her. (and them)
Cheers to all the gifts we receive. Many are priceless.

I love crafts of all kinds , There's something special about the creative arts,
An entire herd. How cute and she could have found a new cottage industry.
Those are just priceless! How creative and lovely. They look really fragile, too. You were lucky to receive such a gift, Claude! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Claude, You certainly have a clever and crafty wife. What a treat to have these cute little guys for a gift!
No wonder Jane hasn't been blogging. She has been busy taking care of her hubby, which is the way it should be.
Claude, those are so cute! What did she use for their heads and ears? I'd like to try making some of these guys, although I'm not sure mine would turn out as nice as these. Love them!
Claude, these are priceless! I love home made stuff like this. I have nat ever seen these before, very clever!
THOSE ARE ADORABLE and I agree with Evelyn, home made stuff is the best!
Claude, your wife definitely is a "keeper!" Glad she "gets" the spirit of giving. Great photo, and thanks for sharing!
Claude how cute are they... got to love it.... I have been known to do this HOWEVER I make people out of Q-tips strap them on ... LOL have a fun week.
How totally clever! It's these things that truly bring the joy of Christmas. Thanks for sharing!
