A lovely tradition from Germany is the Bride's Tree. It is believed that a couple's Christmas tree needs twelve specific ornaments for happiness in their life journey together.
Hi everyone! Here's my house that I finally settled on. It looks so much cuter in person. The colors are variations of brown and tan. I like it so much I may do one for myself!

It's so cute! It stitched up really nice - fast too!
Nice take on the house, reminds me of those sepia designs I've seen some time back.
This is lovely. I had thought about doing the same one, wish I had. Maybe next time?
Don't know if it's the design or the color choices, but it looks like an heirloom, already! Love it.
Very Pretty! I love all of the detail.
