 READY SET GO... TIME TO DECORATE


I am sure many of you are Christmas addicts, love to light the candles, hang the stockings, setup the tree fill the place with Christmas decorations.  I am one who loves to get the things up a little early, so I can sit and enjoy it in the evenings . The lights all aglow, the sparkle of the shiny ornaments that are so dazzling.  Nothing is more special and memorable as that.

I can remember as a kid the excitement of going to get a tree at the tree lots. Later we had a large artificial one, a real pain to set up. My mom bought it , but never could manage to put it together- it was the sort with the coloured tips that you had to place into the corresponding hole.. grr  such a pain.

When I moved from home i got one that you simply open up like an umbrella, such a breeze simple and easy. But one winter we did head out to the woods to cut our own tree, for my son. He was so proud when he dragged it out. His own little tree.

Yes such happy memories! And now i am living halfway around the world , and doing much the same things.  Decorating , baking, making a special christmas dinner.

I started to make some natural decorations for outdoors ,  a pot filled with evergreens, branches  some ornaments , a mini lantern to hold a candle.  Then tied up some silver bows, made from coffee liners on the metal shelf. So it is starting to get the Christmassy feel. 

What are some of  the things you do or make to give your space that Christmassy feel?



Some simple cozy  Decorating  ideas  to try for  Christmas.


An INVITING SPOT

A bit of plaid goes a long way. Love this cozy rustic look, mini trees, wreath, pillow.



VILLAGE SCENES
I have always loved the winter village scenes , these one made of paper 
are so simple and lovely.



GARLAND and TREE BOUGH

MUSIC  is something that Christmas is all about. 
What a nice way to decorate using music sheets.  










CANDLES
never can have enough for a cozy winter night!




 



NATURAL TWIG WREATH 
love the simplicity and colours, using simple twigs, pinecones, 
berries and that adorable bird ornament.

Pockets please!!/ fashion

  Well as the title says…. Pocket s please!  This week has been a very painful week. I recently injured my knee badly. Not able to move stand or walk. When finally bit better I finally  managed to move . I needed something to wear that I could put my phone in , glasses medicine in. Any dress I thought I could use didn’t have pockets for anything.  Why???  When I think back there usually  were pocket inserts nicely sewn  on inside of slacks or dresses.  Now you rarely find that .  I guess it’s a cost saving , less material needed and no extra time used sewing a pockrr er r in.  Maybe it’s to give an outfit a more neat look, no bulging pockets.   Meanwhile mens wear there are always pockets.  Do you like outfit with pockets?
