Picture This 179 - Christmas

My wonderful neighbour had this little Santa in front of her door, so I asked if I could take his photo. She said, you can take it home and keep it until Christmas, I have another figure for my door Now she has a wonderful angel in front of her door (must take a photo), but here is Santa.

Santa

And here is our mini Christmas tree. If we had a mega tree, we would have 3 inquisitive cats trying to see who reaches the top first of all.

My step-daughter visted last week and brought me this wonderful Christmas bowl. She had filled it with Christmas Biscuits that she had baked herself. They were delicious and now the bowl is empty, but a beautiful ornament for a Christmas arrangement.

Very nice neighbor!
I really like your little tree (a lot less work and not as heavy as a big one!
A cute bowl (I really like the lid too)must've been some delicious biscuits :)

Cute Santa, and lovely small Christmas tree.
I like this nice decorated container, I once bought one from Christmas market in Munich, as a gift for my sister in law.

Very good pictures on this festive season. I would like to have that Santa Claus... very cute face... Even small, your X'mas may be a temptation to your cats... Beautiful Christmas bowl... It looks like those by Villeroy & Boch... The tag adds a very refined touch to the gift...

Lovely pictures and how nice to get something home-baked in a nice bowl. You've done a wonderful job of capturing the spirit.

Hi Pat!! It was very good of your neighbour to loan you that very jolly-looking Santa. Love that mini tree, although I can well imagine Nera's comments about it!! LOL. Nice Christmas bowl, even though the biscuits are now gone.

Love that Santa.
We don't have cats but no room for a tree, yours is nice.
Love the Christmas bowl too.

Rules For Weekly Challenges

The rules are similar to when Picture This was on Multiply, with a few differences. As always, please post a maximum of three photos each. The Picture This page on Blogger is optimised for image size 640 x 480, so please try to post images NO LARGER than this to avoid distorting the page or overlapping onto the right-rail. Blogger has a storage limit for photos uploaded directly to the site, so please use copy/paste of HTML from storage sites such as Flickr or Photobucket as much as you can. Unlike Multiply, Blogger does not allow posting of images in comment boxes, so anyone taking part should put their photos, along with any accompanying text, in a separate post here on the PT main page, making sure the challenge number and theme are in the title line. Please note that the posts will appear in reverse order. After the host has posted the challenge, all contribution posts will appear above it on the main page, so you will have to scroll down the main page to find the host's post.

Challenge Albums & Flickr

Unlike Multiply, Blogger does not have facility for photo albums, so Picture This now has it's own associated Flickr account, where albums will be uploaded to . Once on Flickr, they will then be cross-posted to Blogger (all of this part is done by the admins, just like the albums were on Multiply). Each challenge album will appear on it's own tabbed page, along with a Flickr slideshow of the album. The cross-post only shows the first 24 images as thumbnails, to see the whole album, either watch the slideshow, or click on the little blue link between the thumbnails and the slideshow. Only the most recent three challenge albums will show on tabbed pages, to see earlier albums, you will need to go to the Picture This Flickr page. CLICK HERE TO GO TO FLICKR PAGE. Our Flickr account has tight copyright controls, so your photos are as safe as on your own Flickr page.
