Seasonal decorations

Yay, finally it is time for seasonal decoration again- I always look forward the whole year to it…
My little round tree outdoors is this year bearing a chain of lights:

That is my Advent “wreath” this year:

The wrapped box on the piccies above contained a gift that Mum gave me for today, the first Advent Sunday:

I love this star-shape, I know them as a big version- they look awesome if you have a true hallway in your house to hang them there. I never knew that they make them that tiny, too. ♥!

Since I finially finished repainting the Ikea reindeer, I could just hang it into my orchid-window which is now seasonal, too. Once a darker picture to make the star more clearly visible:

And one where you can actually see something. *g*

A cute little tealight holder which I couldn’t resist recently:

Snowrose

One of the prettiest poisonous plants that I know is the Snowrose / Christmas Rose (Helleborus niger). That it blooms when everythingelse seems dead and or resting, has ever fascinated me. After reading up on it, I saw that I have the means to keep one happy, so I can grace my window now with one, too. Outdoors, of course, where such plants belong. In spring, I will get it a nice large pot for it to permanently live in.
