Christmas ornaments

From Keeley:

The Die Hard Christmas ornament I made for my son.

An heirloom nativity set gifted to me by Uncles & Aunty’s on my dad’s side of the family. This was in Nanna Betty’s home every Christmas and I was obssesed with it.

Little wooden angel - one of 3 wooden pieces given to me from my Amma & Grandad’s collection.

A brass instrument to remind me of my Grandad and growing up in the Salvation Army with their gorgeous brass band.

And just because - our Christmas tree this year.
