Day 1–Something RED

Today is Day one in Susan from This Day’s 25 day photo challenge and the subject of the day is Something RED.

I really like this RED mitten decoration but what I like even more are the sleigh bells hanging behind it.  They’re from when I was a child.  When the boys were young, these bells would hang on the kitchen door in our old house.  I’ve tried hanging them on doors here in this house but the cats like to play with them a little too much.  Not that I’m opposed to them batting them around a bit.  They’ve withstood my childhood and our three boys but at 2am, which seems to be their chosen time, no thank you!

  1. Great mittens. Love the bells too. I have a similar strand that hangs on my front door. Thanks so much for sharing and for playing along. I'll get mine up later today after work. Blessings, SusanD

  6. I believe I might just make some wool mittens to hang like that - I even have some bells, though they don't have the wonderful memories yours do. blessings, marlene
