We actually have three atlas baubles for reasons which now escape me.

He's now, er, rather older. A lot rather older.<br /><br />Karen - lovely about your robins too! There's just something about having them on the tree, isn't there? (And v glad you liked <i>Fortunate Wager</i>!)<br /><br />Carol - thanks! We tried to go 'tasteful' one year. It looked very nice - but we all hated it! LOL on daughter's chocolates!<br /><br />Olivia - I do think ancient decorations give family trees their character.

I have some tiny glass baubles that used to be my Nan's. I put them on a small ornamental tree - I want them to be seen, but they're just too small for the big 'real' tree.<br />Have a lovely Christmas!Sheila Nortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13997206301877289623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-85149296603387927082009-12-22T12:03:44.180+00:002009-12-22T12:03:44.180+00:00Nice tree, Jan!

Like you we have the same decorations, but this year my daughter decided to use only the red ones and the cream ones, so it it not as bright as usual. The other colours will have to wait in the box till another year, when they are In Favour. There are exceptions to her rule though - ie purple chocolates and gold choc coins...<br />Happy Christmas!Carol Townendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06272578445125707881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611561027305931377.post-66004482822483343932009-12-22T11:46:55.961+00:002009-12-22T11:46:55.961+00:00What a gorgeous tree!
