Merry Christmas to all

Hello everyone and a almost Merry Christmas

Christmas is by far my favorite time of the year and I spend a lot of time decorating and going to Christmas market and enjoying the Christmas spirit. Thankfully I live in a part of town with a lot of children which "forces" parents to make their house or apartment festive from the in and outside. This year I started my first year at university and sadly I do not have much time outside of that. But I love driving home when its dark from Uni and coming home seeing all the lights out in front yards or at windows.

I started with our house decorations very early and then added when I had the chance (time). Now only 4 days to go till Christmas I am not completely happy and our cellar is still full of decorations, 
( I could actually never use everything we have)
  but the main and most important part are there and some extra.
In this blog I will show you some of my favorite ideas for decoration that I mad this year and maybe you'll get some ideas for this year ( if your are very late) or just in general for the next years. Enjoy !

First off outside decorations and the front side of our house.

In front of the windows  I put up some ceramic "pots"(two small and one large) and fill them with fir green and red ball balls.







Every year we put up a garland of fake fir green with colorful light i front of our door plus a door wreath. I am big fan off not colored light cool and warm but somehow I love how the colored light aren't disco they feel somehow classic and traditional.



 


Let Every Day Be Christmas Christmas is forever, not for just one day,for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf. The good you do for others is good you do yourself. (Written by Norman W. Brooks)



















Of course these photos were taken in day light, but trust me at night they look lovely

Some decorations that are up the earliest are the ones that are either made by professionals like this





and things that always have to be there traditionally that I do first thing mostly on the weekend before december.





 I hope you found this blogpost interesting. If you do come back again and like and share or follow me on my social media accounts. I hope you all have a very merry christmas coming up and I wish you a happy new year.
