Christmas spirit

This year's tree got a very animalistic feel

...with birds and elephants...

... more birds...

... and a camel!


The Christmas stockings this year are home made. VERY much so. Found these old socks in a box at my dad's, filled with stuff from the 19th century! And because whoever wore them back in the days had gigantic feet, I thought they'd be perfect as Crimbo stockings. (The red lace/frills and red loops are of course added by me)

The cake rack also got into the Christmas spirit.

Long ago, I was given this Winnie the Pooh snow globe. It has been with me every Christmas every since.

And this year's advent candles were put on a pewter tray filled with star aniseed and cinnamon sticks.


Hope you've all had a lovely Christmas!
