And as promised, the pictures of my Christmas decorations with our theme of Winter Wonderland. Nothing much to shout about but it was all hard work, especially creating the snow landscape and putting up all those tiny little trees and all that twigs and stuff. The twigs we found at the park near our place and the little trees were from last years old Christmas tree.
The idea came about when we couldn't find a nice tree skirt and I thought why not make a snowscape at the bottom of the tree instead and this is the end result. Like I said, nothing really to shout about but wifey and me are both proud of all the hard work we put into it :D
Oh, I also managed to salvage that failed genetic mutation of a snow man and managed to get it up. Though not what I expected but at least it's better than nothing. Wifey and me have already started getting new ideas for next years theme ... LOL!
