my place & yours..festive cheer

our festive cheer is all about the lights!  Fairy lights all over the place, I just love it! 
and the tree, of course! It's such fun putting it up with Christmas music caroling in the background...
christmas cards are strung up like a garland & gradually fill the mantle, handmade decorations from school & kinder, are proudly displayed all around.  There are so many traditions that make the festive season so cheery & I love every single one.
  
Christmas is a fun, happy, busy & emotional time of year. The winding down & the ramping up, I reflect on the year gone by, my family & my blessings.  Love Christmas time...

Join in the festive cheer over at Vic's!

    Love a bit of fairy light magic myself. I don't think you can ever have too much twinkle.
