@sovietpostcards here are our soviet ornaments that you sold me I think 2 years ago. we didn't bring any ornaments when we immigrated to Canada so I'm glad to have these now!
Aww I remember these guys! I only sold a handful of glass ornaments during all the years, how nice to come across these again. Warms me up that they’re actually on your tree. ❤❤❤

I won’t be putting up a big tree this year because I’ll be away from home for the holidays. I should decorate my tiny tree though. 🎄
