I'll be home for Christmas...




Come on in... Welcome to our open house!  Can you believe that there are now only a few days left before Christmas!


Only the finishing touches are needed in our preparations for Christmas.  We still need to make our gingerbread house, it fills the house with a wonderful aroma.  Do you also prefer to have a really old fashioned, traditional Christmas.  Which are your favourite colours for Christmas ?



When we travel, we normally like to bring back some souvenir for Christmas.  Many treasured ornaments were given to us by friends.






Please sit down and make yourself at home. Would you like an eggnog or a mulled wine?  Do you also like all the old Christmas songs?  Which is your favourite?  Do you prefer Dean Martin or perhaps Sinatra?

Do you like the smell of cinnamon, or chestnuts roasting?  Or perhaps the fresh scent of poinsettias?


Do you also like to use your every day ornaments at Christmas time?  Even some 'chinoiserie'?


These are some of the entries in our Guest book for Christmas Eve, 2008.  It brings back so many memories when you read through the old comments that friends and family wrote.


Please leave a comment, and let me know if you and your family have special traditions, or even how you would like to spend yours!


Good Night and we hope that you are having a wonderful time with your family preparing for Christmas.

Hope to see you again soon....

All that Glitter!

Have you noticed all the new and beautiful decorations available for Christmas? They come in every colour, but especially pinks and blues. There are a lot of feathers and glitter... Come and take a walk through the (unfinished!) Christmas shop...








Making the two Christmas trees (the silver and the pink one) was really hard! The wires were really obtuse and kept bending the wrong way... into my fingers!
The trees need more decorations but for now my hands need a rest.




I've been slightly obsessed with books lately... OK, I am usually obsessed with books! But I have been making a lot of books...
