It is NOT popcorn balls! I bought one of Lynns Gorgeous Victorian Ornaments


Take a closer look!!!
(double click for a closer view)
( I just got a sweet comment that said it looks like a "popcorn ball" until you enlarge it so PLEASE enlarge the picture to see all of the beautiful stitches!!!)

at this GORGEOUS ornament
my friend, Lynn

of
has designed! 
I ordered it in antique white with soft rose accents on a 3 1/2 inch ball.  (A little more expensive but I want this one to stand out in the crowd!)
I am so excited! 
I have just a very very few dollars left in my
PayPal account but this beauty will be worth it! 
Lynns work is so very detailed and perfect in stitching and made with love!
Let's order a couple dozen of them
instead of going to the store and buy something
"everyone" will have hanging on their trees.
This ornament is an heirloom to be passed down from
Grandma to Great Grandchildren.
Lynn puts so much work and love in each piece she designs. 
She has a SHOP to sell all of her latest creations. 
 She makes the most precious baby booties and hats and gloves and scarves and toooo many to list here.
Let's support
"Handmade"

this Christmas.
So many of the things we buy come from China, Japan, and numerous nations. 
 Buy American Handmade because we need to keep our money in our homeland to help others struggling with our economy.
I just wanted you to see what I will cherish for years to come.
Mine will be in a soft antique yarn and rose accents.
What colors would you use for your gorgeous tree
or
even for a gift for someone very special?
Keep Lynn on your shopping list of "have to get" purchases!!
You won't be sorry,
Blessings, to you and thank you for stopping by to see what is next in
 the Kyser household. 
Your comments bless my life and make me feel of some value in blogland.

Absolutely beautiful. Definitely need to enlarge the photo to get the full effect. It looks like a popcorn ball until you enlarge and see the beauty in the detail. I definitely agree that handmade is best and we should all consider the homemade gift this holiday season rather than rushing out to buy everything from the store. Peace & blessings, Tammy

I can see why you spent your Paypal funds on THIS ornament. The work put into this is beyond gorgeous!

Oops! Hope I didn't offend with the "popcorn ball" observation. My eyes aren't so good anymore. The first photo is definitely much brighter and clearer now. Lynn's ornament is certainly a thing of beauty to be treasured for years to come. :) Blessings, Tammy

Sharon,

The ornament is gorgeous!!! I can see why you chose it:). I also want to say that I love that you are promoting a handmade Christmas from the artisans in our country! There are so many talented people in our country and I agree that a beautiful handmade gift like this one would be treasured so much more than the common ornaments found in every chain store.

Blessings for this first week of Advent,

Kim
