lol@coolshare...real neat st up you used for your bamboo..haveing lived in san diego years ago ive been to your n-hood looking for birds and always liked it.i don't think know what your place would sell for. i have 18 different types of bamboo and i feel like a picker compared to some with high numbers in less land. i am on almost 8 acres that slopes ,with half of it wooded where i have my 5 fagesia growing...the open area has 12 runners here and there...more coming this fall.. all except one spectabilis are small 3-5' plants..i figure i have 3-4 years before i have to do anything to keep them from running into each other.so i can save up $ for a tractor in order to dig a ditch around them as barriers are way to costly for my useage....i am hopeing in 3-4 years to find and mybe afford to sell this mtn top home for 50-100 acres...thats my dream....i love bamboo but grow birch trees,lilac,blueberry bushes and apple trees too just to name a few...if/when i move ill take a ton of bamboo plants with me and leave some.....i planted some to block out all signs of others liveing below me as to only see greenery...

I just love looking at that tree. It certainly gets lots of attention yr round!! I enjoy how you change it out to make it look different each time. Those cute decos, and the little cottages below are just the right amount and make it look so sweet. Right now I'm chuckling, thinking of The Bunnies - 'Waiting In The Wings' !! lol jane

Jeanne, beautiful display on your cabinet. Love your fancy deer with your birch tree. I knew it was you when I seen it. A basket with pinecones, lovely candle and lantern, under that neat picture. I remember your pheasants you painted for DH. That little chubby santa cracks me up. I thought he had his mouth open when I first looked. Apache Tears huh? U had me on that one! Love the old bottle caps in the jug and your pinecone wreath. I have a foot warmer messager under my feet right now but it's not as cute as your snowie. MR & Mrs and your ceramic Christmas tree is a must to see every year!Yeah Your canvas painted snowman on the door is so neat. I've never seen them that I remember any how. Let's not go there.haha Birds have come to enjoy your vine tree now!sigh Gorgeous scene behind your sweet little angel and votives. Oh, love your real female Cardinal picture. They are so Lucky to live at your home and so r we so you can share w/us. Your home must be exploding w/decor!woot,woot It's been so fun coming here and seeing all the decor this year. I tried to post on this post last night and it wouldn't let me type. Had a tough time at first tonight too but I hung in there and showed it who's BOSS!haha Punk

I'm glad I was able to get these pictures up.Thank you all for you wonderful comments. Jeanne, there is a silver doily and a clear plate between the charger and the plate. I thought the dinner plate looked a little small on the charger so I added the other one. Punk The corner cabinet was an unpainted piece that DD #1 stained and drew the fruit on it for me almost 14 yrs ago. some of you may remember the oak buffet that was next to it. Well it has gone on to it's new home My youngest DD just purchased her first home and had the perfect place for it. It is a family heirloom, but it was to big for my small dining room . and looks much better in it's new place. The small white hutch is for my kitchen. I'm making a few changes there so it was residing in the dining room for a short time. The garland on the white tree is cream and coppery colored beads. I wish I took a close up.of them I think they are really pretty . My Santas always make me smile. I hope I answered all of your questions .i have to leave in 15 minutes for a Drs. appt so I'm rushing this I should've waited til I got back. NanaK
