On Sunday Wayne and I took time away to visit the Southern Christmas show and check out some of the booths. It was a TON of walking. My goodness. The booths never seem to end. We ran into some folk we knew and chatted a bit and met some lovely vendors. Below are some pictures I shot along the way.
Chara works in Tanzania on malaria prevention and education. We purchased a gorgeous wooden carved frame.

They also had some lovely pillow covers that I would have purchased if I were not aware that Sparky would take that as a shredable chew toy.

I loved something about this tree....

And, as always, I am strangely drawn to iron work.

And another tree. Sensing a theme?

This gentleman had a gorgeous wood mantle to display his wares.

We're hopeful that next year we'll be posting pictures of our booth! :)
