I couldn't believe my good luck along the way, of being able to receive some of these and I am finally happy with the tree I have chosen for them too.

These are not nearly all of what my Grandmother and Great Grandmother had, although for my Great Grandmother, that one little box may be all that my Grandmother inherited as she had a brother and 3 sisters and of course they would have all wanted a few I'm thinking and my Great Grandmother had sized down to a small table top tree when she was quite older and on her own. She may have given most of hers away long before.

As for my Grandmother's, I am not sure what has become of the rest of hers. She had enough to dress a full sized tree, not crammed full, but plenty enough. It made me wonder if some are sitting in an out building with what was leftover in the house. I would never want to appear greedy, but it would be somewhat sad if they are just in a box piled with other junk.

For now though, I do feel fortunate to have a few of each and since this is not my only tree, I suppose it's just the right amount for this size that can fit on a table.

Merry Christmas to you too !
