I hung these beauties from the chandelier in my dining room last Christmas and left them up all year. I don't know if I'll take them down this year or not. I love looking at them.
The white one on the bottom was made by a quilting bee friend. She gave it to me when Vann and I got married in 1994. The one above it, red and green star, was made by my friend Rhonda who worked with me at Oxmoor House. Rhonda is an extremely talented quilter and editor. She's now at Victoria magazine I believe.
The pink ball was made by my Mama, I don't know how many years ago. She passed away in 2005, and I know it was a good many years before then.
I think I bought the one with yo-yos at an Oxmoor House prop/projects sale. I have no idea who made it, but I love it.
I'm truly blessed to have so many creative people in my list of friends and family.

What precious memories and love are represented on those lovely balls! What a good idea to leave them up all year long and live in their shelter.
Hugs!
