Christmas: Wreaths, garlands, and Co.

by Elsa

Christmas season started just around mid-OCtober this year! Between ads and TV programs; it becomes rather tricky to forget that’s that time of the year.

I really want to deck the hall this year BUT I have 5 indoor cats. That means no Christmas tree again this year, but I should be able to hang banners/garlands, and wreaths around my house thanks to Etsy‘s fabulous supply of antyhing-Christmas related. I even set up a list of Christmassy stuff I’d like to have.



Christmas wreaths

You can find the perfect wreath, you can be sure of that; I plan to have one on my front door and, maybe, one outside my craft-/guest-room.

Lots of baubles

Or for those of you that are addicted to Harry Potter (wink to our last holidays in Florida).

Buntings and garlands

These little Christmas trees would look like some delicate lace against a neutral wall.

This one’s design is elegant and refined.

Our cats do like a bit of garland-chasing, but we always put some on our staircase.

Some felt wool pompoms to brighten my daughter’s white bookcases and give a festive look to them.

Creating my Christmas ornaments

I’m in awe regarding Lolli and Grace’s embroidery designs. I can’t hand-embroider (well, at least, not yet, but that’s some craft I’m dying to learn). I could easily buy all of her designs or her kits!

Her PDF patterns for Christmas show vibrant colors we do not usually pair with Christmas.

The green on that set if just mesmerizing for me! I need to learn embroidery ASAP!

She also has embroidery kits for these ornaments. Aren’t they cute?
