The holiday season truly comes alive in our home when I hang the wreath on our front door. Creating my own wreath is a source of immense joy for me. I gather lush green foliage from our garden and make a bit of a mess while trying to perfect my wreath-making skills. But the end result is always worth it when I see it adorning our doorway.
Decorating for Christmas is a week-long affair in our house. Every room is adorned with festive decorations and essential elements to capture the spirit of the season. As the days inch closer to Christmas, I add the final touches with more greenery from the garden, decorating mirrors, mantles, and pictures.
The heart of our home, the kitchen, is bustling with activity during the holiday season. It's where I spend extra time adding festive touches and displaying my collection of Christmas China. The kitchen becomes a festive backdrop for all the baking that I love to do during this time of year.
But the most monumental moment for me is putting up the Christmas tree. It's a tradition that I look forward to every year. I love adding new decorations to join our sentimental and nostalgic treasures, each one holding a special memory from years past.
For me, the magic of Christmas goes beyond the decorations and the delicious smells of baking. It's about spending time with the people we love and cherishing the moments we have together.
But amidst all the joy and festivities, we must remember that for some, Christmas can be a bittersweet time. Let us hope that this Christmas, peace will find a home in every heart.
So, make the most of every moment this holiday season with your loved ones, no matter where you are or how you celebrate. Let the spirit of Christmas fill your heart and bring joy to those around you.
Warmest Christmas wishes
