The Prairie Schooler Santa Tree

Good morning! 
Here it is .. one of my favorite trees.  The Prairie Schooler Santa Tree!


This tree is one of 2 trees that is incorporated into the Christmas Village .. To achieve the height the trees  sit on the Rubbermaid bins the Christmas decor comes out of ..

I have all the yearly Santa's stitched except 5 .. 3 of them are started and hopefully one will get finished before Christmas ..

The only new ornament is this little guy from A Christmas Visit book #48

This year I changed up the tree topper to this enamel Santa sign I found at Walmart ..

I think it is perfect for the top of this tree!

In addition to all the stitched pieces .. there is white fur trim used as garland throughout 

Santa ornaments ..
buffalo plaid bows 
The little ABC Santa was a gift from a viewer ..
The bottom middle above was also stitched for me by a fellow blogger .. she wanted to have one of her stitched pieces on the tree!


The tree is a flocked prelit tree from Walmart .. and since it is flocked all the ornaments get flocked the minute they go on the tree!
and there you have the Santa tree for 2020! If you look really close you get a glimpse of the new stair railing in one of the pictures:) We have a railing!

 Have a great day .. thanks so much for stopping by!

Christmas ABC #3

Good morning!
This is the third time I have finished a piece from the Prairie Schooler Christmas Alphabet ..This is Kimberly's stitching from The Fat Quarter Shop and my finishing ..
I stitched the word Christmas from the alphabet and here is that finish 

This was Chelsea's who also stitched "CHRISTMAS" 

We used the floss from our Be Merry floss pack 
You can find the chart here and Kimberly's  special floss pack here 
I found the finishing frame at Hobby Lobby .. I mounted the stitching to sticky board .. and mounted black buffalo check to another piece of sticky board . Then glued the 2 pieces together . I glued that to the back of the frame .. and then added large Lori Holt vintage trim in Riley Red over the top with cloud vintage trim on top of that

I made the bow with red and black buffalo check ribbon and white ribbon with black stitch lines .. a large glitter snowflake .. a deer ornament and a vintage Santa head top off the bow . I then added flocked greenery to the back of the bow ..

This is Chelsea's Christmas from the Prairie Schooler alphabet leaflet .. We both have stitched this one and I finished mine like this.. ..you can read more about it here  this was a stitch a long with Kimberly from the Fat Quarter Shop #fqschristmasalphabet
To finish Chelsea's I found this garland of little wood gingerbread men in the target dollar spot .. I mounted the stitching on sticky board ..then mounted Christmas plaid fabric on sticky board and glued the 2 pieces together ..
I added a bakers twine bow to their necks and attached them to the top of each plaid covered sticky boards .
I then glued them to a piece of barnwood .. and it's a finish!

The Prairie Schooler Santa Tree and a New Ornament!

Good morning!
I told you I couldn't show you the Praiarie Schooler Santa Tree for this year until there was a new ornament to put on it .. so 
here he is! I started him for Jolly July .. #fqsJollyJuly our ornament stitch a long with Fat Quarter Shop ..he is my 14th finish of 26 starts 
He is the 2019 Prairie Schooler Santa .. fully finished on December 19 , 2019 :)

This tree is one of the village trees.. it a 6-1/2 foot prelit flocked tree from Walmart .. I use buffalo check ribbons and white fur like Santa's suit for a garland ..there are also other Santa ornaments placed between the stitched pieces ..these are all the yearly Santa's except 4 .. I need to get those finished up !

It's like taking out old friends when it is time to decorate this tree!
To finish him .. I mounted him on sticky board.. I also mounted red plaid fabric on 2 sticky boards .. glued those together and then glued the stitching on top .. I added red and white bakers twine  between the  2 plaid sticky boards ... a ticking strip bow and a plaid covered button was all he needed ..Thank you so much for stopping by!
