Made in Italy: AMELI Leather Bag

Wow.  A new  💚❤💚 accessories brand with a bag in my favorite kelly, top-handle, multi-strap style.  

Met a company Rep while in Europe, and I just had to have this beautiful, soft-grain leather, functional bag in my favorite shade of dark green (also available in 4 other colors).  Top-handled plus long, adjustable, removable straps -- awesome 👍

Introducing, the gorgeous VIADUCT bag!!!

MacKenzie Childs: My Only Homage to Santa Claus During Christmas

The Christmas Holiday's focus is to celebrate and acknowledge the birth of the Savior of the entire world -- the Lord Jesus Christ.  Santa is last on the list.  He makes a nice, detailed Mackenzie Childs' candle, though.  For decor purposes and no other reason:

Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. (Isaiah 7)

My Friend's Amazing and Vast Collection of Dolls

   

I've known P.S. for decades. To me she was never not a Doll collector.  Every single one of her dolls has a name; and each has a history. I estimate the collection to number over 2k 😮😀😍😲

I thought it amazing that years ago she had one glass display cabinet chock-full of dolls; but now her stuff literally take up half of all available space in her entire house, LoL 😁😀

The photos are very recent; the short YouTube video is from 2015 and worth watching. It would have taken  me hours of picture-taking to do her vast collection justice. Alas, she was also in the middle of hosting her daughter's party and we could only stay so long.  BTW, by the time this is published it would be P.S's birthday, Lord willing.  Happy, Happy Birthday, 🎂🎈🎉P.S!

MacKenzie-Childs: Which is It, a Rooster or a Hen?

MacKenzie Childs likes Roosters, Hens, Chickens, in its designs, obviously; and calls this item a Rooster Candle (orig. $150).  But is it??  You be the Judge.  (Glad to know that I am not the only one confused at first glance. See below).

One thing  of which I am certain -- I should have bought at least two while the candle was on  a special sale.  It is gorgeous and fulfills my hankering for MC's Parchment Check collection. It's also made in Italy, whoa.
