For some reason this year it is very slow going. Maybe because it is close to 80* again and it just doesn't feel like it is already Christmas.
We started on the outside and it is still in the need of some tweaking.
Our tree is getting there...kinda, I am hand crocheting all the garlands and making all the ornaments this year.
I am making logs...pillow logs to fill the suitcase bottom and pinecones my son has collected for us.
Our stair garland is up and lit.
The stockings this year are felted buckets to look like picnic baskets.
I have put my shop sales first the past couple of weeks and I think it is time to slow down and do more for my own family. I want to really enjoy this season. No rushing, no crazy post office days...just a cup of coffee sipping while enjoying the lights and my family.
Slowly I will get it together, and enjoy my time while doing it.

Oh, Amy!! It's a wonderland at your house!! Wish I could come and see it.
It was 87 here this weekend, and I'm taking baby steps to get ready for Christmas. My first step was an Anthro candle, mulled wine...yum!
