I have been doing a lot of thinking about Thanksgiving and thought I would change my huge cloche to something other than pumpkins and reflect the serious side of the season a little better.
I want our Thanksgiving to reflect all that we have to be thankful for. A beautiful covered Bible and a Crocheted cross reminds us to thank the Lord for all of our Blessings.
Just a simple change, but one that helps to put the season in focus.
Have you counted your Blessings today?

ReplyDeleteMy daughter is, once again, posting something she is thankful for on her Facebook.

I pray all is well in your world my dear friend..Have missed seeing everyone in blogland and hope to be back in full swing by the first of the year..God has really Blessed me and my family once again with his great love..Hugs and smiles Gl♥ria
ReplyDeleteNice thoughts for keeping us focused on how blessed we are. It is ironic that you have that crocheted cross in the cloche. My Mom saw yours in your post sometime in Oct. and liked it very much. She said she loved the pattern and asked if I could make one for her for Christmas. I had made her one which she has used for years but she loves yours. Did you make it? If so do you know if the pattern is still available? Hope you have a nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteShannon
We all need a little reminder every once in awhile to be thankful! Love how the Bible reflects into the silver tray.....perfect cloche creation! Thanks for sharing and inspiring!

ReplyDeleteOh Marty, that is simply beautiful. What a way to display your thankfulness, it's truly an awesome way. Perfect, dear friend.

Another simple and lovely way to display your crocheted cross. It looked wonderful on your coffee table too! I have one little crocheted cross...and I cherish it.
ReplyDeleteA nice Thanksgiving display. Perfect!
appropriate is correct, as ms. linda said. I really enjoyed your cloche and cross. :)

Marty, I think this is one of your best cloche things. It really keeps the focus on the main thing doesn't it! Plus so pretty--the way you have done it.
ReplyDeleteMarty, I love the table decor.Susie
ReplyDeleteIt's so easy to get distracted. What a perfect way to remember all we have to be thankful for all month. Thanks so much. ~Roberta
ReplyDeleteMarty,
ReplyDeleteYou are so right about being thankful. We were without power last week for 3 days with a freaky snowstorm. It could have been worse. I was thankful for a generator, which gave us one light in the LR, ran our fridge, and a small heater. Blessings to you this holiday season.
Hugs,
Debbie
you do such great things with cloches...they always look so pretty. Mine are all outside covering various plants...I think I need to bring one in.(-:
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and so appropriate for Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeletegorgeous gorgeous. Love this!
