The Meaning of Christmas

What does Christmas mean to you? This time of year is full of so many memories from Christmas Past as well as the excitement of making new memories to be treasured in years to come.

For my Christmas project this year, I have made a set of nine inchies, with the initial of each one spelling Christmas. Join me each day for a focus on treasured memories on a countdown to Christmas.

So let's begin with C for ...


My inchies are one inch square mountboard, covered in paper by Cosmo Cricket, with dictionary definitions & images from Lisa Altered Art, with a dash of Tim Holtz Distress Ink (antique linen).


Chestnuts roasting over a coal fire

Carollers singing familiar songs

Candles burning brightly

Celebrating with family & friends

Clementines studded with cloves

Chocolates – a treat for all

Crackers to make the meal go with a bang

Cinnamon Chai latte to comfort & warm

Crystallised fruits, a cherished memory from Christmas Past
