Early Christmas Flowers!

On the stitching and knitting front everything is a big secret at the moment (gifts and exchanges) so I can't show anything. Fortunately if you've been reading this blog for a while you may remember that at around this time every year our local florist  runs a festive workshop, so I do have some floral stuff to share:-
A table decoration with a funky wire collar. I'll have to replace the fresh flowers in this between now and Christmas of course but the basic arrangement should be OK.

A novel alternative to a wreath for the front door. This is made using a block of oasis and a small log fixed to a triangular backing board


And a hanging swag type decoration.  I have no idea why blogger has turned this on it's side, you are just going to have to lean your heads over!
The two outdoor ones are sitting in the garage at the moment, I don't feel right about putting them up in November.

  3. Winter weather on the way the radio just said, by the end if the week we'll be needing hats, scarves and gloves not to mention a hottie bottle in bed! That should put us all more in the festive mood, and right on time to put out those beauties for Dec 1st. They are stunning.

  4. Love these Christine! Making your own arrangements is so much fun. Yikes...Christmas seemed far away and all of a sudden it is getting so close. I need to start my decorations.

  5. Let's see, you can put up the outdoor decorations on Saturday. That's not much longer to wait to show them off. All the plant material decorations look lovely.
