I like how many of your ornaments come from travels. we like to do that too -travel and collect ornaments! that little melting snowman candle is precious! i like the little mini tree and embroidered tree skirt and I LOVE old ornaments!! WHat a neat sticker to have on that one. German ornaments are great! Merry Christmas! Kelly
