THE CHRISTMAS QUEEN.......ROSE AND HER SANTAS.

It's that time of year again when the
Queen of all things Christmas
throws her annual Holiday Luncheon
This year was the "Ugly Sweater Party"
But the stars of the day were
Rose's Handmade Santas..... 
Can you say Talent on overload....
Rose use to Blog...
We all Miss Rose....
So every year I like to do a post on her
Fabulous Home....
And the most spectacular Christmas
Decorations you will ever see...
All made and designed by Rose...
This year would be lot's of
Ugly Sweaters...
On the table and on us lucky to
be invited...
Nothing is left un-decorated...
Here is our lovely Hostess....
and none other then Joyce....
ex-Blogger of "Flour Power" fame...
when I say everything is decorated.....
everything is decorated...
every inch...
And here is one of her
Fabulous creations...
For those of you who have never seen
these before...
Rose makes everything you see...
from the body to the clothing...
to the hand painted faces...

they are very large....
probably around 3 feet tall or more...
the ornaments come from Rose's
imagination....
she collects things all through the year
every where she goes...
Santa's are not her only talent...
the Lady can decorate....
She collects blue and white ware....
It's everywhere and it's Gorgeous!!
A new addition this year...
They converted a screened porch in to this
beautiful sun room...
See that wonderful sofa....
found at a garage sale...
Rose painted and distressed it and the
women even knows how to upholster
furniture....

The tree if filled with all
Santa ornaments..



The Dining Room....
Rose made this wreath from
vintage Christmas ornaments found
online and at thrift stores...
She's a milk glass collector too!
We all got party favors.....
Found at the Dollar Tree...
there is a container attached to the
grater that was filled with candy....
The card reads...
"To A Grate Friend Merry Christmas"
Can you see the miniature Sled
inside the Lantern...


It was an "Ugly Sweater Party"....and although
I left early I have a feeling Rose's Friend
Linda won the price....

Thanks Rose for a wonderful time...as always...
Can't wait for next year to see how you
can top yourself!!

Merry Christmas!
