INSPIRATION FOR THE HOLIDAYS

The Christmas season is fast approaching and there is always much to do. Whether you like to bake, catch up on crafts or make something for someone .

My favourite way to get into the spirit is to decorate the place. To start with hanging garland or crafting a small decoration for the tree. Here are some great ideas that give me inspiration

and I hope you find some inspiration also.
