Good afternoon
Hurrah just 3 more school days left - looking forward to 12 alarm clock free mornings starting from Saturday.
Have spent another day working my way through my to-do-before-Christmas-list - nice things such as buy cake ribbon as well as the dreaded hoover the entire house! Another thing on there today was take photos - I made that task the last one so it was a treat to look forward to.
I think we're now finished on the festive decorating though I may still add things if I find anything else on my wanders this week!
The top of the piano
Something new for this year - this nativity set was greatly reduced in our shop as one of the Kings had been beheaded! Luckily I'm a dab hand with superglue and he's able to join his friends. This set reminded me of the primary school nativity plays the boys used to do - all home made crowns and tea-towel headdresses.
The hallway - complete with stockings on the banisters and an eight foot tall snowman! Please notice an almost tidy dresser - just the last few cards to deliver sometime this week.
My collection of Santas & Snowmen - haven't managed to add to them this year - however there's still a week left!!
One tree with almost every decoration we own on it!
Fireplace with stockings hanging already!
Even the mirror got a tinsel scarf and a Christmas banner.
I'm rather looking forward to tomorrows to-do-list it includes mince pie baking and Christmas cake icing - there's some ironing on there to but not much!!
See you soon

I love seeing photos of other people's houses at Christmas. Yours is looking very festive. Thanks for sharing...
This looks like the kind of look I'd go for if I had a nice house and the necessary skill/patience!

Hi - I've missed your blog, glad you gave me a nudge, sorry it's been taking me so long to catch up with everyone. Your house looks fab, I am jealous of your piano, not only are they are lovely thing to have, they're such a handy display space, which I'm sadly lacking. I have the same glass candle-sticks as you. That little nativity set is very sweet, you can't tell anyone had ever lost his head!
Hope you have a lovely Christmas xx
Your home looks gorgeous Vicki, full of Christmas cheer. Enjoy the mince pie baking and Christmas cake icing, oh and the ironing! :)
