I think you did great with the photography considering your obstacles. So much to love here, I would be bidding on a few of these if I lived there. Happy Mosaic Monday, Snap.
You've chosen a great selection to highlight in you mosaic ... the Texas Gulf Coast Holiday wreath is definitely a find! Great photos! What a great idea to raise money for this worthwhile cause. Have a fabulous festive season!
Dear Snap, Thanks so much for your lovely words and these pictures are great, you are very talented with your camera! purrs and love LUna - WE LOVE LUNA and hugs from mommy Léia
What a wonderful fund raising idea for MD Anderson. They are all very clever and so well done. Would love to have seen them all, but I like your choice as a favorite, too! Merry Christmas!
I am partial to the "My Fair Lady" wreath. I hope they do well in their fund raising. My BIL was there last year. Sadly, we lost him, but my SIL said everyone there was so good to them. Now don't forget to have your vodka and tonic sometime this week! LOL ~ Sue
Enjoyed your mosaics. Hope they raised a lot of money. Hope you are enjoying the holidays.

Each year different departments at M. D. Anderson Cancer Centermake Christmas wreaths for auction.The wreaths are displayed on the walk-way between the main building and the Mays building.The auction goes on for two weeks with the proceeds going to family programs.
Here are a few of my favorites.Please excuse the quality of the images.The reflections were horrible, the lighting terrible and there was a lot of pedestrian traffic to shoot around.

I loved the pink "Ride 'em Cowgirl" wreath with its boa like feathers.Curious George was a hit with the kids as wasthe Mickey and Minnie Mouse wreath.Then there was the "My Fair Lady" wreath with it's fancy feathers, fabric roses, ribbons, pearls andplenty of lace.

It was the "Happy Texas Gulf Coast Holiday" wreath that really captured my attention.Photos of the gulf coast, fishing lures, weights, shells, lighthouse.You name it. If it had to do with fishing, it was on the wreath.There was even part of a fishing pole hanging off the side!Love the jingle bells, too.
A big thank you to Mary for being our hostess for Mosaic Monday.
Christmas is less than a week away.Wishing you well, a JOY filled week, and many blessings this holiday season.

Merry Christmas, Snap!
I love that wreath with the feathers. Just goes to show that Christmas doesn't have to be all red, green, and white.
I hope you and Mr Dragon have a peaceful Christmas, filled with joy.
