My Domestic Art

Name Doodling This is for my little one... Just because he inspires me :)

Our theme for this Christmas is RED AND GOLD. I'm not such a big fan of red, but the kids have been asking me to do red for years... And I figured it is such a classic colour associated with Christmas that I just had to oblige.  I didn't want to do a full-on red so I added some gold decorations from previous years .  The highlight is always the Christmas tree - placed right in front of our front door.  I love setting up the tree... taking my time adding layer by layer and looking at how it slowly comes together.  I always start with the big items like ribbons, flowers, twigs and branches, then the kids would end off with the balls in various sizes.  The gold star topper is from many years back. Unfortunately I couldn't find any large red topper that I liked so I had to make do with what I have.  This butterfly has been making an appearance year after year. I just love it!  All lighted up and so sparkly at
