CHRISTMAS CHALLENGE FOR AUGUST


Amanda has a Christmas challenge going and for August we are to make a table centerpiece.  I should have sewn something.  I could have.  But instead,  I decided on  seashells and pine cones.  It is too early in the year to be able to find some spruce or pine sprigs, so, I am using some leaves from my Camellia bush.  Well just try to find something better right now in Southern California.  Or at least in my backyard.  I had the seashells and my daughter sent me the pine cones from Florida.  Seems they have some on their property. The red is some raffia strewn about for color.    I'll use Christmas greenery come December.

Cheers,

Marilyn
