They are all very beautiful! Very nice keepsakes. I started a collection of ornaments for my tree many years ago. My Christmas tree adorns many ornaments of all shapes and sizes from many different places I have traveled in my life. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your special collection. I think you should try a tree this year.Living Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13536713874842469949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1861307316932691361.post-87862348048177157902009-11-18T16:31:23.278-05:002009-11-18T16:31:23.278-05:00I love them, they are so pretty.

These are just too beautiful, not to be on show once a year. I adore the blue (West German) one with the flowers on it.<br /><br />My mother has a string of big plastic flower tree lights bought in the 1950s and they all still work.<br /><br />It's been great catching up on your posts Faye.

I have a couple left though. Funny you should say you put them away when you had the puppy. My sister in law up until this year kept her tree in a playpen so my nephew could not reach it. This year she put it up early for some unknown reason and thought at 3 he was old enough to leave it alone. <br /><br />My daughter was babysitting last week when he came to her and said "Oh NO, I bwoked the twee!" He had ridden past on his scooter, tripped and knocked it down! He did not break it but the ornaments all fell off. I thought it was quite funny, his mother did not, it took her hours to decorate just right!

I hope when they become mine I'm not in Flylady mode, so I don't just toss them all!<br /><br />I like Lil Mouse's idea of putting them in a bowl. Or, how about in those tall, covered jars? After all, you've already gotten them out.Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03257003309544469441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1861307316932691361.post-57866502210014384942009-11-16T13:06:56.233-05:002009-11-16T13:06:56.233-05:00I remember the ornaments my mother and grandmother...I remember the ornaments my mother and grandmother had years ago and I would love to have some of them now.

My MIL gave us some old ornaments that were in her family, but they were very beat up, so after the first year, we stuck them on a smaller tree, and then in a bowl instead of letting them dangle precariously. Mostly, it just seemed like she wanted to be rid of them. I don't like 'gifts' like that. If you truly think I'll like something, that's one thing, shoving something in my hands and saying, take these I don't want them is something else...but my husband won't let me get rid of them. They're staying in the box this year.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04474928571871603804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1861307316932691361.post-56744405361337058142009-11-16T09:17:26.124-05:002009-11-16T09:17:26.124-05:00Oh Faye they are beautiful and I remember quite a ...Oh Faye they are beautiful and I remember quite a few like yours, that we decorated our tree with when I was a child.

Though I don't have any from anywhere other than Australia, I've got some colourful ones that are a bit older than myself. <br /><br />I have always liked a lot of different colour on a Christmas tree, not the one or two colour ones, I like it to look as though it's made of love with a mottled assortment of colours and shapes etc.wendishnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10047127677267754194noreply@blogger.com
