Our home is now pretty much decorated for Christmas. I like keeping things simple so there isn't too much of it, but that's how I prefer it. We got the tree last week and I have spent a few evenings making decorations - most things you can see here are home made. The wreath on our front door is made out of twigs I brought from the forest, pine cones and ivy from the garden. Most ornaments on the tree are hand made as well; this year I produced a number of clay decorations in all sorts of shapes and colours. I also have a lovely collection of ribbon and sequin baubles made by my Granny as well as crocheted snowflakes made by my friend's mum. Some of those snowflakes are also adorning our dining room windows :-)
