Glass Christmas ornaments
 
I got a catalog today that I had not seen before from Bronner's. There are fantastic glass Christmas ornaments in it and the prices are good, I think. They start at about $5 and go up to about $16. The variety is fascinating, for example a golf ball, club and golfers bag. There are ones for all kinds of sports, occupations, a set of 8 tools ($18), Santas, snowmen and on and on. We spend the holidays with out daughter and she likes unbreakable ornaments...she has 3 big house dogs, 2 cats, one 3 year old) but I might send her a couple anyway. The variety fascinates me, or can you tell? If anyone wants to brouse the web site is www.bronners.com but the ornaments don't show up there as well as in the catalog. Their number is 1-800-652-3466. I just found a pizza slice, hot dog and a turkey ready to serve.
 
 
Guess what? I went to a German music festival a few weeks ago and there were just a few souvenirs being sold, but I found a glass "pickle" Christmas ornament. I remember reading all about that tradition on this board last year. I couldn't resist and bought one for my oldest DD, who has been a pickle-puss all her life (she *teethed* on pickles and one of her favorite books was "Pickle Juice"). Anyway, I was so proud of it. I showed it to DD#2 and she said, "That is positively the *ugliest* thing I've ever seen in my life!" We had a good laugh over it and I've put it away for a real surprise when DD#1 comes home from college for the holiday. Last Christmas I started to needlelace over a clear glass ornament. Sigh, it sits unfinished, but the practise certainly improved my needlelace skills.
