There’s less than a week until the start of December, and
exactly one month until the big day! I’ve
already got my advent calendar (..a Gruffalo one), several batches of homemade
mince pies are in the freezer and I’ve started to pick up a few new bits for
the tree.
We’re
going for a neutral Christmas palette this year, with hints of red, green and
gold. I picked up these hanging decorations
in my local garden centre and they are all by Gisela Graham. I’m hoping to create that cosy cottage feel
with these new decorations and I like that all of them have a homemade feel or
distressed features; it all adds to the shabby chic look. I’ve got my eye on some bargain baubles in
Tesco and am hoping to make both a wreath for the front door and some clay
hanging decorations for the tree to complete the look.
How
will you be decorating for Christmas?
Since we will be on student budget this year I think we're going for paper snow flakes from the least important pages of coursework. Your decorations are really cute though!!

We used to do that too! And there'd usually be a blow-up penguin/christmas tree from poundland! x
DeleteThese are so cute! I decorated yesterday, I don't have a theme as such, I just love all my vintage kitschy things :) xo
ReplyDeleteI loved your vintage tree decorations! :)
ReplyDeleteThose are adorable!
ReplyDeleteDon't have much of a theme at home, but here in my student house it'll probably be whatever we can get that's cheap! We're hoping to get a proper tree though, which will be nice. :)
Gorgeous decorations, I love trees with a shabby/cottage feel to them xxx
