My favorite snowman (a candle can be lit inside on the bottom) & my favorite WoodWick Candle-Fireside.
I just got that candle in the fall & it's already over half gone... I love the smell & burn it a lot!
2 separate shots of my favorite wreath - one in color & one in platinum... I'm lovin platinum.
I'm linking these collages to Mosaic Monday

That's a pic of my mama when she was younger in a Mason jar of oil...
a cool idea I picked up on Pinterest
Some favorite Mason jars & a Kraft Parmesan cheese glass backlit by really bright lights...
most would probably use the lights as Christmas lights,
but I keep em up cuz of the open shelving in my kitchen.
I think these are the last of my Christmas pics, but if I find more I'll definitely post em!
I've learned a lot this Christmas season about 'lighting' settings & shooting indoors
& I'm having fun with it, as you can tell... note there's no orange glow! YaY!
I've never taken or posted so many indoor pics in the whole 4 (almost 5) years I've been blogging
& I have several to thank for their help & patience,
but mainly the person who granted this awesome camera to me...
I didn't know how cool it all was until that door of a DSLR camera was opened to me!
Thank you muches & bunches from the top to the bottom of my heart
to that special person who wishes to remain anonymous.
Happy Happy New Year to All! =)
Happy Happy New Year to All! =)

i like your color wreath!!!
i really love these ... can't pick a favorite ... so cool. i love the Parmesan cheese glass jar ... awesome! ( :
Fantastic photos ! It is fun just to get snapping isn't it ? DSLR cameras are a wonderful invention I think better then my old 35mm Minolta I used to use by far and I don't have to develop my own film any more WOOHOO ! So much faster and easier ! Glad to see and hear you are having fun with your camera that's what it is all about ! Have a Happy New Year If I don't catch up to you before then !
These are all fantastic photos. I can't seem to keep up with your posts. Love them all!
These are ALL stunning! I adore that photo of your Mom in the mason jar. I will have to try to find that technique!
I am glad you are so happy with your new camera and with all the info you are using. YAY!!! Now tell me how you do it. I WANNA KNOW!!

I have no idea what DSLR stands for, but it enables you to take evem more awesome photos than before and that's saying a lot!
My favorite is the wreath in color, but I'm a 'sucker' for mason jars so that's my 2nd favorite.
My photos didn't turn out as well; I have a lot to learn still, but some are good.
they're all great, but i love the one with the pic of peggy in the jar!! very cool editing =)
I love the pic in the jar. That is a very clever idea.
I love the mason jars back lit- what a cool idea! I am playing with my new camera...I realize I have no clue what I am doing so I hope to take a class soon.
Tricia, you are doing great with your new camera. the mason jars and lights look beautiful, a great idea!
I wish you all the best in 2013, Happy New Years!
You are doing great with that new DSLR... Your pictures are beautiful.
Good for you...I'm jealous!...:)JP
A very attractive and unique series with the mason jars. I'm glad your new camera is working out and giving you some new ideas to try. Good post.
These are beautiful pics Tricia. I can see you're having fun with that new camera. Happy New Year to you!
What a beautiful tree! I really like the first black and white photograph of the ceramic snowman. You have some terrific ideas here, both for decorating and photography.
Happy New Year!
your holiday photos are lovely
and wonderfully nostalgic in feeling
Great photos! I'm loving those mason jars. So cool!
DSLRs are awesome! I love mine. Happy you are loving yours - such a wonderful gift from your sweet anonymous friend!
Love all of your shots, especially the canning jars (a fav of mine)...hugs to your camera angel... Thank you for sharing on Weekly Top Shot #63!
You have created some beautiful images playing with light and composition. I'm guessing you are rally enjoying playfully experimenting - a camera can be one of the best gifts.
The orange glow is off the walls at my place with the orange pine wood paneling. It's getting more orange by the minute...ackkk...I'll have to take lessons where you've been taking lessons.
Beautiful photography...I prefer color so thanks for including those. Your mama in oil, eh? Now that's interesting.
I love your mosaics, too and would love to try making one with the same photos using different effects! Brilliant! Happy new year!
Really beautiful photos. Playing with your camera has resulted in gorgeous shots.
Happy New Year!
Tricia, you are doing so great with the dslr!! I'm so impressed with how you've embraced it and how each post gets better and better. You are rockin' that camera, girl!! LOL Keep up the great work. I'm sure the giver is very pleased to see this new side to your photography. :)
I like all your photos here today - but I especially love the snowman ones. Cute!
Wishing you a wonderful New Year Tricia full of Health, Peace and Joy!
