A happy December to you! Our family always went to the Como Park Conservatory in St. Paul every December. My grandma loved both the poinsettias and the warmth of the building. This is one of my favorite photos. Grandma made the coat, and I had a fuzzy white hat and my all-time best mittens - little puppy dog mittens that were like puppets.

At our house, it’s time to get ready for Christmas. I’ve posted more Christmas collages as well as a few favorites. Hope you find some favorites too; email me if you have something special in mind but can’t find it.
