: hand made for the holiday

i put up our little christmas tree yesterday and scattered some holiday decorations about the house. our tree is decorated very simply with small silver gift boxes, pine cones, and faux holly bunches. i picked up the below ornament this morning which was custom painted for us by local artist michele mazza. she has been hand painting glass ornaments for the holidays and was nice enough to take a special request from me. thanks michele! this ornament is dead center acting as the heart of our tree. happy holidays everyone!
