We finally got our act together this year and created one to be a part of the Tioga County Historical Society's "O Tannenbaum" Holiday Showcase and Auction. Between now and December 18th, 2010, you can visit the Tioga County Historical Society Museum (TCHS) in Owego, NY and place a "silent auction" bid on any of the 85+ trees, 25+ wreaths, and dozens of various other items that are available for purchase or to be given away as raffle prizes. All of the proceeds from the event benefit the TCHS.
Our water-colored entry is entitled "Winter Water Wonderland." Decorated with waterlilies, fish, frogs, dragonflies, ducks, and other nature-inspired items, the three-and-a-half foot tall tree also comes with a $50 gift certificate to be used right here at Totalily Water Gardens. We actually commissioned the fish ornaments featured below to be made by an artist in Seattle, WA. They're made out of origami paper that's wrapped around a glass ornament and we think they're absolutely SPECTACULAR!
Be sure to check out the TCHS's website for additional details as there are a number of wonderful musical and Children's Day events coinciding with the O Tannenbaum fundraiser. You can also see the "Trains of Yesteryear" and the "Teddy Bear Did It" display while you're at the Museum. There truly is something to see and do for everyone, of every age.
"Hoppy" holidays, from our pond to yours!!!
