It never ceases to amaze me what you can do online these days *grins*.  I wanted some fresh-cut greenery to decorate with this year and voila!  Enter Amazon.  Anyway......when it arrived it was so green and fresh and smelled heavenly!  I couldn't pass up the chance to play a little and here are some of the results:
