The Cold Shoulder. . .

First of all, I want to thank Cindy from Old Time Farmhouse for featuring my Weekend Whites post. and Lavender Garden Cottage for featuring my Silver and Gold Christmas Tree post.  I truly appreciate it!

Hi my friends.  Just wondering, have you ever entered a room and had someone give you the cold shoulder?

That’s been happening to me every single evening for the past month.  I thought that now Christmas is over that it would stop.  But no, it’s going to continue till the end of January.

Come on in and I’ll show you why.  Really, this snow garland above the door should have been an indication.

And how about my chalkboard canvas.  Do you think it was trying to warn me?

Or this fella hanging on the bedroom door?

What about this gal standing just inside the door?

Even my ‘Winter Wonderland’ quilt on my bed didn’t explain why.

Why I was getting the cold shoulder.  Actually, it was more than just the shoulder.  It was cold legs, arms, feet, and hands.  In other words, my whole body.

I didn’t know why until I saw what was hanging out in my bedroom.  A cabinet full of frosty fellas.  And look, they were even encouraging it to snow.  Right in my bedroom.  Can you imagine?

Oh my, even more of those cold hearted guys on my fireplace ledge.

This one stands guard at the fireplace.  I would turn it on, but I wouldn’t want him to melt.  No matter how cold he is I couldn’t be so cruel.

This one is hiding behind double glass.

Oh well, if it gets too cold I guess I’ll just have to climb into my cozy bed and…

read myself a bedtime story.

And if it gets really bad I could just skate right out of here.

I totally agree with Karen, what an amazingly charming quilt ... can't imagine being a bit chilly with that around!!! Lovely, snuggly and fun ... of course I have always been a fan of red work!! Also, love the snow ball garland on top of the cabinet with the snowman. But alas, I am living with lots of snowmen myself ... so I sort of get it! "shiver"

Chenille Cottage said...

What a darling post, Jann!
As you know I love snowmen in a big way! You have added so many "cool" little guys to your bedroom! I love them all.

Yippee!!!! You finished your Wintertime red and white quilt! I wish I could say the same. I am still working on finishing the redwork on mine. I love the scalloped border...It's so much sweeter than a plain one. Maybe I'll have it done for Christmas of 2013, 14, 15???

Blessings to you, my dear sweet friend. I am so thankful for your fond friendship!

Big hugs,
Carolynn xoxo

I am flying to sunny San Diego tomorrow for the birth of my little grandson. I'm so excited...My Grammy heart is ready to burst with joy!

pembrokeshire lass said...

Well, I don't know what to say! Perhaps you could send some over here and I could look after them for ou? Seriously, though, love them all. Joan

Pondside said...

That was very cute! No cold shoulders up here, but if you're not carrying an umbrella you'll have wet shoulders.....

Terry said...

Happy New Year!
