The only Xs in my garden are the two little Xmas
trees that I bought last Christmas and put outside after Epiphany. We always
observe the tradition of Twelfth Night and put away all Christmas decorations
on that day.
You can see the tiny cones on the little tree
Anyway, the trees survived and thrived but I could
only bring one indoors because the other had been ‘leant on’ by a hanging
basket and displayed brown needles where there should have been green. It will
recover in time for Christmas 2012 I’m (almost)
sure.
The one I brought indoors is decorated with buttons of glass and brass and the red ribbons and bells that adorn the necks of Lindt rabbits, reindeer and Santa Clauseseseses.
There are one or two small wooden ornaments, too.
The white and silver gauze trimmings and ‘pearls’ from Christmas crackers make tiny baubles and the whole is lit with battery-operated strings of small lights.
I took the photos so they’re not very good. The busyness of
Christmas has left me strangely ill-coordinated and eyes, brain and hands are
not working in synchronicity, it seems J
I hope you all had an enjoyable Christmas/holiday
season and are looking forward to New Year’s Eve. I wish you a Peaceful,
Prosperous, Happy, Healthy and Fulfilling 2012J
