Day Thirteen: Colour

Every Christmas you find two kind of decorations in our home. The second floor is more "grown up" where white, silver and glitter are the main tones in the ambiance.

But on the first floor, the setting is way more playful: here my boys are the masters of all decorations!

 The colourful crafts they do both at home and at school glisten and create a funnier and more pleasant atmosphere - it definitely gives us a boost during the dark winter days.

I am on my way to work, one of two late shifts.

Hope you have a nice day.

Day Twelve: 3 for 2

3 for 2! Those good deals that make you expend a little extra, specially around this time of the year.

When I find offers like this I try to look for things that I can use for different occasions throughout the year. This time I ended up with a few stars on a stick. I tied some on a rope and hung them in the hallway mirror.

Hope you had a nice 12.12.12

Day Ten: Favorite Corner

A beautiful staircase from Home&Cottage decorates my favorite corner of the house.

(thanks to my friend S. for the gift card).

I've used it lights from Ikea, birds from Home & Cottage, little houses from  Kremmerhuset and in the background hangs one of the stars from Tine K and my alternative advent lights.

I love the result and the harmony of all the details of this corner.

I love Christmas, it is absolutely my favorite time of year!

Day Nine: Challenge "Christmas DIY"

Advent DIY paper candles for those places where real candles can't be use.

Only one picture in this post because I want to enter Hege in France challenge "Christmas DIY".

 I will share more pictures in another post.
