Christmas 09

I decorated an old bird cage, and put tea lights inside, this was christmas eve night, with all the candles lit.

The table decorations.

The tree! You can also see the pretty bunting I made hanging up behind the tree.

Advent calendar blog- DAY 7

Today my Grandparents came over for a christmas lunch. For dessert we turned a tub of icecream over and pored hot berries over it, it was so good, and such an easy dessert. I also made some petite fours, almond chocolate balls and almond biscuits. yum yum!!


And todays featured item is these holiday gift tags from Astulabee, (thank you to one of my readers who tipped me off on these gorgeous tags)
