Imagine a Christmas tree with birdies among the ornaments, feathers tucked alongside the green tree branches.
It is a truly lovely idea.
My cousin, Marianne, has amassed many little faux birdies throughout the years and she puts them all on her unique Christmas tree.
Marianne has a wonderful knack for year-round decorating but the apartment is especially beautiful at Christmas time.
It is charming and festive enough to look like something out of a magazine.
We have great cousin chats over sweetbreads, cookies, and delicious coffee.
For our Christmas visit this year, we even had delicious sausage links and buttered toast with ginger spread that was a gift to her from one of her sons and daughter-in-law.
My daughter sent over some of her sugar cookies which added to the tastie offerings.
Having a dear cousin who shares one's history, and times together, are special blessings in life.
Hope you enjoy seeing Marianne's totally adorable and darling birdie Christmas tree and getting a peek at the holiday treats.
Wish I could share them with you.
She also okayed showing on this blog other decorations in her apartment so stay tuned for additional posts, if that is something that interests you!

Looks like you two had a sweet time. I think a birdie tree is perfect. In fact, a tree with woodland creatures would be quite delightful. Warm wishes.
Oh I love the decorations from nature. So glad you had a chance to visit with her.
