ChristmasBarn

Cedar garland, punched-tin stars, carved nativity figures, and ornaments made to be pulled out of the same shoebox every December. Handmade holiday goods with a little heirloom in them. Start a tradition or keep one going.

Christmas out here was never bought all at once. It was gathered — cedar cut off the fencerow, paper stars folded at the kitchen table, a few glass balls kept wrapped in newspaper from one December to the next.
