Late with this annual thread this year!

Store bought wreath with thrift store mini balls, and planters with some recycled materials, greenery from the garden and ravine, and more red balls from the thrift store. This year’s theme is a little more conventional - but DH liked the arrangements made up for the planters.

Nothing done inside yet. I need to fetch more greenery, but it was rainy and icy. Not doing a tree this year. Held a discussion (we are four adults) about what was important for a satisfying solstice. The plan is for a cheque for the food bank and no (or only token) gifts. Good food with some seasonal treats, some family games, some quiet time for reading. We all have some parties/events to attend over the next 4 weeks. I like some greenery inside, but the tree was always a chore and I never got any help. Taking it down made me sad.


How is your holiday shaping up? Will it be quiet, or a family frenzy? Are you a minimalist or a maximalist when it comes to holiday decor? Share your holiday pics!
