I once decided on a flat in San Francisco because of the bay window, a perfect Christmas tree spot. Your tree is beautiful. I am now living back in coastal South Carolina near home. About the only thing I miss about CA is the Noble Fir Christmas trees with their widely spaced and perfectly horizontal branches. I am resigned to using a good old pine tree cut from a local forest... but still hang on to my big C7 ceramic lights and bubble lights. Thanks for the great pics on your blog, love the paper trees.<br />Terry Simmons<br />South CarolinaTerry Simmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03792021722794600425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-58044756428452347522009-10-25T10:29:00.433-07:002009-10-25T10:29:00.433-07:00Beautiful, Terry.

Sometimes then the piece lost life when removed from that surface.<br /><br />If I do use the cutting mat when making design choices, I have learned I have to put it somewhere else to check if it still works w/out the dark teal background.<br /><br />Sandy in the UKSandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978514536651961190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-13851837700071757582009-10-21T21:59:26.375-07:002009-10-21T21:59:26.375-07:00The taupe is definitely more Mt.
