December Gets Me Down, so I fill it with Smiles



The Holidays are always hard for me.  I naturally get a little down, inexplicably.  I think part of it is a reflection of everything that's happened over the year, and how thankful I am, but also the realization of all the things I could and should do for the people in my world before another year passes.

It's really hard to just shake it off, so to combat the Winter Time Blues, I have to put in a little extra "Oomph" into Happy, Shiny, Cheery stuff.

 I noticed how most of my Etsy Shop Merchandise is packed away in boxes, and all my little Keepsakes are actually pushed and shoved around in odd places....I have a little table in the corner of my Office, so:


I have no idea about anything regarding the short little puppy here, but he's so playful, and looks like he's about to pounce on someone, wagging his tail and licking their face, it makes me smile.  The little flocked puppy I picked up at a Rummage Sale.  He's a little less Flocked, but all the more Shabby and Charming!


These little Hound Dog Twins are adorable.  I walk by my little table and they look up attentively wishing me well, so happy to see me!


These poor little Retro Kitsch Xmas Ornaments were actually discovered in the bottom of a box I picked up at a Rummage Sale.  It looks like they've seen better Christmas's past, but hopefully they will enjoy bringing me some Holiday Cheer in their new home, (: 

With a more positive atmosphere setup, I think I can get past some of my blues, and start working on a few more Xmas projects!

(Sneak Peek at 3 really cool Xmas presents.  Yes the one to the far left is an UBER Secret Present for the CheapGeek).
