The photo of the wall hanging I'm using tomorrow is from that too. I'm hoping taking pictures of things in public venues isn't a breach. The tag on the wall hanging said "Made in China" so I figured there wasn't another artist I needed to credit.<br /> And YES, please write a poem for your own elves under your tree. It would make us all happy.Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01825251724115541708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4114341568105527452.post-56555966825017995892012-12-08T12:25:07.790-08:002012-12-08T12:25:07.790-08:00Myra,
