I've been looking for a snowglobe for a while and I love the idea of an electric one that doesn't require shaking, all the fun, none of the effort, it would be so relaxing to just sit and watch it.<br />When it comes to the tree I'd go in a week or two before Christmas and hope they'll start to reduce them. They look so real these day's don't they? The one we had when I was growing up wouldn't have fooled anyone! :)<br /><br />xxHazelxJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05438389465030714608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-26835953276437940552020-10-06T13:20:54.053+01:002020-10-06T13:20:54.053+01:00We haven't even had Halloween yet.

I usually like to keep Christmas in December, certainly until after Remembrance Sunday, but this year has been so horrible that I think that many people are going to go for it early, and in big style. I've even found myself thinking about Christmas trees. I'd love outdoor decorations but my front garden is a postage stamp and I think they'd get nicked, sadly. xMrs Tiggywinklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18262841220840086776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-81197959320547358712020-10-02T22:25:54.298+01:002020-10-02T22:25:54.298+01:00Oh dear, where has this year gone?

They had a good selection of items for terrariums. Love the cards. I'm not thinking of Xmas yet, as we may not be able to see any of the kids or grandkids.......though maybe it will be slightly better than we think.

I have quite a collection of snowmen. I like them because they can be the decorations until Valentine's Day! I agree with mamasmercantile...

I don't have outdoor decorations and very few indoor ones too. When my grandson gets a bit older I will make more of an effort but there doesn't seem much point when you live on your own. I wonder what kind of Christmas it will be this year will we even be able to see our family. x lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00139295265567390855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-9386397619840914472020-10-01T14:37:34.671+01:002020-10-01T14:37:34.671+01:00Love this time of year when the decorations start ...Love this time of year when the decorations start to appear.

I haven't put out all of my autumn wreaths yet. I change the wreaths on the house doors and barn doors each season. I don't do much more decorating than that.
