I saw this idea in one home magazine and thought that it would be nice here at my place since I live alone and it is nice to have some sounds at home.

Jingle bell attached to silk ribbon at kitchen doorway.


And here are some paper stars at living room window. Also there's
my old colourful light garland witch I have had since I was child. I actually prefer clear
lights these days but one has to be a little nostalgic :D
(I'm planning to have kitchy x-mas next year, so these will fit perfect then)

Two years ago I bought this treetop ornament because you just can't find beautiful treetop star anywhere. And also because I don't think it's nesessary to have a star (or angel) on your christmas tree.

I didn't have the chance to use it last christmas and I forgot about it so I bought another one from sale. And suprisingly I managed to buy one in the same colour. So this year my christmas is red and white and I just sprayed the other first white on the bottom and then red (very red).


From this....


...to this!

And bye the way. I will be having black fingers for few days since one spray can decided to brake its cap while spraying. Fun! Too bad it isn't summer so I could go wash some rugs :) that would scrub paint of. What I sprayed black will be shown one day.

3rd and 4th Day of December

Today I attached few cardboard stars and one sisal star to my entry "hall" :D I have this ugly 6 piece mirror on the wall and maybe the stars make it a little more tolerable :) I have other plans to entryway also witch you will see later on.


Here is my inspiration that I found from Pinterest. I was originally going to make those double sided stars but I became really anoyed when pieces didn't fit together so I gave them a new meaning. XD

Made by Grey Luster Girl


And here is a another way to use these stars. From Little Birdie Secrets.

I'll be back tomorrow hopefully with my new treetop ornament :)

Candy Canes! Love them a lot. I bought to myself 12 pack of them this Christmas. They have this ugly plastic cover and I intend to use them only as decorations so I will test to lacquer them. I have no idea if it ruins them, but I will test with one only :D


Candy canes on window garland. Pretty pretty!


Canes as flowerpot cover. Also nice display way.


Nice way to decorate a hallway forxemple.


Love them love them love them! <3

Happy December!

Hello readers!

This year I'm going to present a deacoration idea or something from my home related to christmas at every day until 25th of December. You could think it as some kind of advent calender :)

So here are crochet snoflakes and christmas flowers that I made to decorate the tree later. They are made out of thin cotton yarn and they are about 6 cm wide.

The tutorial for these you can find from here.

And the snoflakes are from here.

Both of the ornaments were pinned to board and sprayd with spray lacquer to make them stiff. I don't yet have fabric stiffener but I really shoul get some :)
