Hi again! As promised I will now share some pictures I took yesterday at a friend's house. I've been loving her way of creating a warm welcoming atmosphere for visitors ( and for the people who live there, of course) for quite a while now. You will never be at our friends house without a candle being lit or some extra special sweets laying around in beautifully arranged containers, jars and on plates. She always makes the extra effort to make guests feel special.
I like how there are twinkling lights everywhere to make the White warm and cozy
And if there weren't three young children and a dog running around at our house I might fancy putting our cerials and biscuits in jars like this as well...
There are also children at our friend's house but they are teens and the dog is not our hairy smelly and drooling kind of dog (sorry George, I love you but you are like this!)
And you now find me here thinking of a place to hang a wooden wreath like this!
I'll leave you with the pictures and going to bed right now to be ready for tomorrow's challenges: snow shovelling in front of the house, baking, cooking, present making, knitting up unfinished pieces, sewing some things, sending out mail - you name it.
I hope you are extremely busy enjoying the Season out there!
Feel yourself warmly hugged and twinkle on!
Yvonne

Twiggs, I will tell them! We were lucky and had the chance to be there yesterday night to eat a fat goose in this surrounding! It was lovely! I will probably show the house again in a not-cristmassy decoration!
Happy Holiday!

Super ready for Christmas huh! Every piece complements each other and you can really feel the spirit of Christmas in this house. You must also pay attention to the outside decor to complete the 'Christmas' look of your home.
