Many many of my ornaments come from my travels and since I don't stop traveling, I always have new ornaments for my Christmas Tree every year!

From Yosemite, this was actually a keychain. I did not like any of their ornaments for sale in the shops or I thought they were too expensive, so I got this keychain and repurposed it! |

This fish from Portugal was also not a traditional ornament. I think it was meant to be a sachet for your closet or drawers. |

I did a lot of wine tasting in 2016 and this ornament was purchased during one of those trips. |

Now Shenandoah NP had some lovely Christmas Ornaments! It was difficult to chose just one to bring home. |

This little painted snowman is from St. Petersburg, Russia |

This metal ornament from Germany unfortunately blends into the tree and does not stand out very much. I have to remember where I placed it, or it might get left on the tree when I put everything away in January. |

I have several of these ornaments now. They come from a gift shop in my neighborhood. They are made from old photographic slides. A piece from a Christmas card is cut to fit where the photo was and they are bedazzled with glitter and a bauble attached. I think they are so clever! |

I have not visited the Almanzo Wilder Homestead (yet), but my friend, Lea did and she gave me this ornament as a memento |
