Every year I change the lights on the tree to either all white or all of the colors at once. Even though my kids are older they love the feeling of all the decorations...isn't that why we do all that work???

Lol I've had gold & purple, gold & silver, silver & purple, aqua & white/silver, red & white. This year will be red, white & aqua in the lounge/dining. Now I have a home with a proper foyer last year I did it traditional red & green & it looked very pretty. I love red & white!!!

I've only been out of the family home for a few years now but every year I am getting better (I think) and more creative (i hope) at decorating for the season. I make most of what we do. Last year I made big round paper and cellophane red baubles and stuck them to the wall and connected them with red yarn, then I made snowflakes out of white paper. Every wall had a feature on it!<br /><br />Need to top that this year! So hoping for some great inspiration ;) No pressure hahaSophie Slimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14860687646054015216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1612099349017551249.post-40149677524048978082011-08-07T15:06:08.899+10:002011-08-07T15:06:08.899+10:00yeh I am more of a pull it together kind of person...yeh I am more of a pull it together kind of person...sometimes wish I could be abit more organised it those areas but that wish never seems to come true....Love the red and white.♥JoIndigo Inspirationshttp://www.indigoinspirations.net.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1612099349017551249.post-69216847439975056662011-08-07T14:51:42.216+10:002011-08-07T14:51:42.216+10:00Themes?
