Creeping In...

Today I am off to hopefully finish my Christmas shopping and this weekend we are going to choose our Christmas tree to bring into our home. Since the 1st December I have been creeping more and more decorations in around the house until now, when the only thing left to add is the tree. So I thought I would share some of our Christmas corners with you today and wish you a fun, festive filled weekend ahead.

Santa over looks over my sink and my hyacinth bulbs I am willing to grow a little more.

This little rusty tree is a new addition to the kitchen this year.

A handmade old favourite which has seen many festive seasons now.

A little jug full of Autumn overlooks my clay nativity set.

Christmas wouldn't be complete without some roses to me.

My favourite Willow Tree nativity in the hallway, I love the way the candle light glows in the mirror behind this year.

Above the fire stands a sad little Father Christmas who has no legs anymore, but I love him all the same!

Snowmen to keep an eye on the time till Christmas Day. I added the garland with lights to our existing one last year and this provides a lovely little twinkle along the wooden beam.

These sparkly reindeer are keeping my tin pigs company!

Santa hangs from the lights round here too.

In the living room I have a basket dedicated to Christmas magazines - isn't the cover of Country Living just divine? It has a real old-fashioned charm about it this issue.

And on your way out, the stable door peek hole is home to a tiny little heart wreath.

  1. Cassie, my sweet! I love all of it! We have such similar taste when it comes to decorating,and Christmas is no exception. I especially like the little snowmen with the stick arms on either side of the clock.

    Is it terrible though, to confess that I am so very jealous of all your decorating? As you know, I've done none so far :~(

    Next week, I hope!
