Did I mention I LOVE my lanterns?

So, it started a year or two ago with a couple lanterns I thought would look cute on the front porch ....
It has grown, and I'm not even sure how many I have now. All different sizes and shapes -- the more different, the more I need to have it .... It's fun that there are so many different ones here in Germany! And, they are very nicely priced - even with the yucky euro to dollar exchange! (eat your heart out Pottery Barn!) Well, lanterns had to moved around to make room for Christmas decorations ... such a quandry ... what to do?
I love the nativity in the lantern! This is such a little nativity, but it looks great in this lantern ...
Lanterns mixed with nativities ...
I bought this lantern with the express purpose of putting a nativity in it ... This isn't the one I'm thinking of, but it will do for this year ....
I loved the simple pine cone and berries in this lantern!
You can always fill a lantern with ornaments ... truthfully, the larger lanterns look better with the ornaments in them -- but this one needed something ....
I have the shorter lanterns on top of my potter cabinet -- the cabinet is so tall, it's hard to find stuff to fit on top ....
Lanterns in the kitchen ...
more lanterns in the kitchen ...
And lanterns in the bathroom, bedroom, hallway ...
