Country General Christmas




My most favorite place in the world beside my home is a darling store in our downtown called Country General Store. I want to live there. If you like country, prim, farmhouse, vintage wonderfulness than you'd love this store. Anyway, my very smart family always buys my gifts there. I know the wrapping. It is so cute. Here I am Christmas morning holding all my cute packages.

 So you know the only place I will go to after Christmas shopping is there. I took my gift certificates and headed out. I bought some darling ornaments for my tree and loads of gifts for my friends and family for next year. Here is just a quick peek.

My mom had these little glitter house when I was young so I had to have some for my tree or maybe to display next year.

 This is a bigger house to display with a light thru the back and the vintage tree to the right I just loved.


Here are some of the gifts for next year and you can see my little list to the right where I am trying to stay organized and list what I bought and who it is for. I always tape it to the inside of my gift cupboard so I know what I have as the year goes on. This isn't necessary spending but I used my gc's for my own stuff and paid cash for the gifts which were 50% off. Buying ahead helps me keep the Christmas budget under control and the stuff is so cute. Linking to Seasonal Sundays at theThe Tablescaper.

Man, I wish there was a store like that near me. It looks wonderful.

It's great to have you being a part of Seasonal Sundays. As these days turn from the Christmas Season to the Season of Winter, I hope you'll continue to share with us.
