My daughter is heading overseas at the beginning of January to study French in an intensive language course in France and we are planning to meet her at the end of her month of study. Needless to say we are all excited but are slightly in 'panic' mode to get everything done on time and celebrate Christmas as we love to do.
We have been making some new festive gift tags for a beautiful little store in Hobart, Birdie & Co, with some being suitable for younger children and we have been sending sets of them out to some lovely customers as well. The little gold ink details make them sparkle!
Last year I made members of our family and friends a small reindeer made from twigs from our birch tree and this year we are experimenting with creating angels from driftwood and birch twigs. They are still in prototype stage at the moment but I am hoping to share a photo on the blog if we are happy with them. We are also enjoying creating simple little festive moments at home by twining battery operated tiny copper lights around our handmade grapevine wreath that hangs at our front door and filling bowls with tea light candles and greenery. Simplicity is the motto for this year.
We hope you enjoy the last few days of November and we will be in touch on this blog in the coming month for Christmas.
