handmade christmas
decorating your tree and home
When it comes to decorating the house for Chrsitmas, my family and I like to do it all at once. We pull the ornament boxes out of the basement and attic, haul them to the living room, and take everything out
willy-nilly. Candles with hollyberry ruffs hit the tables, the Santa coasters are dealt out like cards, the cats lob jingle bells around the living room until they vanish under the sofa, and by the end of the afternoon there's holiday potpourri in the bathroom, a wreath on the front door, and there's no denying it's Christmas.
