Day 13 of My Cozy Winter Home.
A piece of last year’s wrapping paper serves as our tree skirt.
Long ago, kittens took their claw sharpening exercises out on my beloved ruby chairs, which have faded into more orange than ruby in places.
The hand-me-down loveseat has become the picture of ‘threadbare.’ The picture of hard, big-family use on a tight budget.
That’s how it’s always been here...But appreciated for the life lived in it, and all dolled up for Christmas (admittedly, from a polite distance)... Beautiful.
