Belated Christmas Post


This Christmas I decided to get crafty - Christmas decorations can be so expensive and our tree and house needed more festive fun in it:

Firstly the Christmas tree needed more decorations so I bought some glass ornaments - I filled half with coloured nail polish to create this effect:


The second lot I put sequins in:




We have never had a wreath on our front door either so I decided this was the year we were going to have one. I just used a round hoop (preferably wire) and strips of fabric which are just knotted onto the hoop. I had a heap of left over fabric from out wreath so I made one for my parents and one for my sister!



Results:



Our piano needed something christmasy on it so I pulled some sticks out of our yard, sprayed them grey and put them in my owl vase with some old Christmas decorations hanging off them.


And lastly - instead of buying gifts for all the family I had a baking day and gave everyone little Christmas goodie bags! 



I was a very lucky girl on Christmas day! Jonny gave me this beautiful cushion I have been drooling over since last Christmas - Isn't it beautiful!


BTW: This is our Christmas tree :)
