A Musical Welcome



Every holiday season, it's fun to pick up a new decoration or two for the house.

This year, I really had no intention of adding to the already more than sufficient number of  Christmas decorations around here.

However, something I saw in an advertising supplement for Bed, Bath and Beyond caught my attention.

Advertised were outdoor mats for the porch that light up as well as play music.  

What?

A-yup.  Such a novelty deserved a look so off I went to the store.

The mats are adorable and play "Jingle Bells" when stepped on.

And yes, the Christmas tree shown on the mat also lights up.

Every time I hear it, it cracks me up, as I know someone is wondering where the music's coming from.

It's right at their tippy toes!

Hubs, however, tries to step over the mat to avoid the music. What a riot!

I bought one for our house and one for my daughter's, as well. 'Tis the season, right?

Who cannot use a little chuckle?

WOULD YOU EVER USE A LIGHT-UP, MUSICAL MAT TO WELCOME HOLIDAY GUESTS?

SOOOO funny. I was just there today but didn't know about these. I think it would be great fun to put one on my daughter's door and let them discover it! You always know how to have fun.
Hugs and Happy December.

Such a great idea. I'll have to check it out.

I have an outdoor wreath on the front porch that lights up and plays several Christmas carols. When I'm not looking my hubby puts he speaker on silent, but I keep turning it up. Our neighbors love it--at least I think most of them do!

Oh my gosh, this mat is unusual, Susan. I want one!! How interesting to step on the mat and hear the song "jingle bells." That's really something else.

Have a fun filled weekend.

love, ~Sheri
