Natural Elements...............


Is it too soon to mention Christmas....!?
Well....., there I've said it...

I've always loved the Natural elements of Christmas, Pine cones, Berries, Dried fruits, Twisted Willow etc...
I am lucky enough to live amongst fields, & can gather, these bits & bobs on my daily walks, with Mr Alfie, it's always nice to bring the outside into the inside of our home....


I wanted to get a bit of a head start, with making things, this year, & have committed myself to two craft fairs, around Christmas time, so, with this in mind, I've been making Pine Cone garlands, Scented Cinnamon Sticks, Bags of homemade potpourri, & one of my favorites Wax scented pine cones, which when tossed onto an open fire, fill the room with a seasonal warmth....

How simply lovely those decorations are. So much better than anything plastic and nasty.
