I can’t believe it’s December and 2017 is nearly over!
Last year, I bought a nice snowy Christmas tree. I think we bought our tree at the end of November and already the decorations I wanted were all sold out so I had to make do with silver baubles instead. I also
bought some props like a nice raffia Christmas sack, cute white fox door
stopper and some fancy fairy lights. For Leo, I made him an advent calendar
which he loved! I filled it up with chocolate, sweets and some small toys.

My 6ft snowy christmas tree and mascots protecting the presents
Fancy fairy lights from paperchase
Last year's silver tree and advent calendar made from envelopes
I also decorated my shelf to look Christmassy and it was lovely.
It may have been 28degrees outside but it was looking very festive inside!
