A Hand Made Christmas

December 13, 2016 by Mary Louise 4 Comments

The weather has been miserable in the garden and not much is going on out there, i have discovered lots of crafty foliage to be used along with Christmas styling so hopefully when i can pluck up the courage to brave the coldness of my crafting shed, i will nip out there and try my hand at creating a garland!

Colorful Playhouse Wreath

Until then Christmas decorating at the farm has commenced and we have wreaths, lights and Christmas props every where. We love this wooden sleigh we had made by a friend and cannot wait to use it. Last year we just did not have enough snow!

I have been spending quality time with all three of my big sisters and enticing them into helping make a hand made bamboo tree and wrapping presents for our local children’s hospital.
Bacon rolls all round of course!

Take a look at all my winter foliage i have been collecting in Hessian sacks. Next year i am in the process of planning a bloggers lunch and photography session using my cut flowers. I think maybe i should be planning a winter session too, so much greenery available!

From the garden

Oh how i wish i had mistletoe here.
As you can see below i have bought some foliage , fern and berries in from the garden and teamed them with my copper lights.
Wishing you all a merry Christmas and many thanks for stopping by!

    What a fab selection of foliage you have! I was lucky enough to get a huge bunch of mistletoe- the husband came home from work with it!

      I need mistletoe!!!
      I have been looking locally but it seems quite pricey for a small bunch… enjoy yours x

    I love all your foliage too. I agree that mistletoe is in short supply and really expensive this year. I have homemade felt mistletoe!
