Turning My House Into A Grotto*
It's Christmas 2017 and the first one Joss and I have a whole house to decorate so naturally I got 4 trees and made it a grotto.
This year to celebrate the extra room Joss wanted a real tree but seemed to think that meant relegating the two fake ones I had from uni to the back of the cupboard. He very quickly realised the error of his ways when suddenly we had a 5ft real tree in the hall, a 6ft fake one in the living room, a 4 ft fake one on the stairs and then B&Q had 3ft ones on a clearance sale for TWO QUID and whadda ya know - now there's one on the landing too.
What concerns me is I had the majority of these decorations, baubles and ornaments last year and for a few years before that and how we ever got them all into our bedroom and tiny living room we had previously I will never know. This year the only new additions are the baubles I made myself and a few goodies from Talking Tables.
This post is a short worded one from me today but a very photo heavy one because let's be real - a picture tells 1000 words and all that. I will however link my Talking Tables bits below and don't forget to check back in tomorrow when my 12 days of Christmas series is all kicking off!
