Celebrate365, Spring Issue Arriving Soon

|---|---|
| Coming soon to a mailbox near you … Celebrate365’s Spring 2010 issue! Cover design: Sheryl Parsons – Mother’s Dream Artworks Celebrate365 is beginning its second decade of reporting holiday, ornament and folk art news. I can hardly believe that it has been 10 years since this little “retirement” pastime began. How technology has changed in those 10 years! Back in October 1999, I used my brand new, top of the line 1.5 megapixel Sony digital camera to take photos for the the Halloween test issue. I must say that my camera and editing skills have improved significantly over that first black and white issue. I’ll be announcing 10th Anniversary celebrations and surprises in the coming days and weeks. Stop back often for updates! To purchase a single copy of this issue, CLICK here. |

We enjoyed a day with friends at the Historical Christmas Barn for this fall’s Patricia Breen ornament event. It’s always a joy to see collecting friends and subscribers once again. Today met all of our expectations!
I’ll post just one image this evening since I need to go to bed early. (The plane for Cancun departs at 6 AM tomorrow!)
Here’s one of today’s ornaments …
