Christmas ambience

Now we have put the Christmas tree up, it’s time to add all the little details, that help to make the whole house festive.

Tiny lights, little figurines and a beautifully wrapped present or two all help to add warmth and colour to the rooms.

Mustn’t forget the reason for Christmas. I have started collecting a nativity display by a celebrated, and long running, pottery in southern France. It’s lovely being able to collect a new figure to add to my display.

And, of course, more lights. I think there can never be too many lights.

Even just dangling lights over picture frames adds a lovely glow and sparkle. It’s looking gorgeous.
