Christmas decoration
Christmas and the holidays are supposed to be a time of peace, love and good will to all, so keeping that spirit it mind I decided to organize a holidays party with family and friends. Christmas is one of my favorite holiday because it is so festive and it is also a very happy time for the kids. This year, instead of just hosting a dinner party, I asked everyone to bring a wrapped gift so we have a white elephant gift exchange after dinner. To capture the excitement of the holidays spirit, I brought out a lot of my Christmas decorations, and went full blast with all the Christmas decorations. Before we start with the party let's get a quick tour of the all the decorations I have out this year.
The main display table close to the entrance.
Apothecary jars filled with Christmas decoration ornaments. |
Red Christmas ornaments in apothecary jar and white Christmas tree. |
The chimney is fully decorated. Too bad the kids are now so grown up and they do not believe in Santa Claus any longer. Never the less a Christmas without Santa Claus effigy is not really a Christmas! |
Since we have a small house I decided to have 2 small Christmas trees. |
Here is the 2nd Christmas tree. It is only 4 fee tall and it is perfect to put it on my coffee table. |
Over the year I collected so many Christmas decorations and they came in handy to decorate the house. |
This the display in the TV room.
