No time to decorate yet but Christmas orders are now packed and sent and we have lights.

Another good use for my charity shop glass pear, festive lights for new years eve.

more baubles

It's a good time to look in the charity shops for vintage Christmas decorations as 'people chuck out the chinz'. These beautiful painted glass baubles were £1.30 a box. My favourite is the pink stripy one, now all I need is the tree.

bargain baubles

On the subject of Christmas, the trend for tree decorations seems to be vintage this year. I have shopped early and bought these from good old Homebase. At three for a fiver they were a bargain and you get a free giant egg box to keep them in!
