    This lovely little Jingle Bell hopped right off the tree, onto some aluminum foil and posed for me. How ’bout that. Good thing, too, because I was having a hard time choosing my next ornament! Some of my ornaments have character, sentiment and background, some are just what they are. I love jingle bells and I love the sound of jingle bell wreaths. Last year, we opted for a little bitty tree since hubby was in Iraq, leaving all of our traditional things in the attic for the season because they kinda made us sad to think about ’em. The girls chose our midget tree, which was adorable, they chose a string of lights, and two sets of ornaments. I had some influence over the jingle bells, I must admit.

    Now, here’s my annual Make-a-Flake plug, because it’s fun.

    Now that has got to be the most beautiful depiction of aluminum foil I have ever seen! Gotta love when Jingle Bells get up and pose!

    I’m glad you’re all enjoying the snowflake maker, there are some pretty ones in their gallery!

    Thank you for the compliments on this photo, I chose it because of it’s photographic qualities, not the ornamental ones. :cheerful:

    I’m still trying to decide which ornament will get the spotlight tomorrow!

    The bell on foil picture is fantastic, Leanne. Handling a flash with something as reflective as aluminum is tricky at best. Great work.

    Thanks, Utenzi! I actually don’t use flash unless absolutely necessary. This one is in natural daylight in my studio – which is flooded with light from the north. Perfect for photography.
