The holiday season is soon approaching. When decorating your house don't be to quick to run out to the nearest Micheals to buy "made in China decorations." You will be suprised how many items around your house and yard can be used to decorate. Using found items will make your decorating more fun and create a very individualized look. First check out your back yard for vines,sticks and greenery .Also any plants like Sedum or spent sunflowers ,hydreanga can be dried and made into a holiday arrangement or a wreath. Re-use found items inside the house as well. We hung an antique sleigh on our wall in our mud room and use it for coats and scarves. It makes for quite the conversation piece. If you have old tin buckets you can also tack them on the wall and your children can place their mitts and scarves in them .Personalize them by painting their names or initials on the outside of the buckets. We always have fun items in the barn that you can re-use in a creative way. You are welcome to stop by and look around. Just give us a call first.905-836-1520 or 905-251-5657 ...........Also your children can decorate the buckets themselves for christmas with broken jewellery pieces, cut out paper, vines, small stuffed animals,small dinky toys. Just send them on a scavenger hunt , let them use their imgination and the different ideas they have will be wonderful. I 'll talk about other interesing decorative ideas in my next blog. Have included a pic of the sunrise this morning..........Have a great day!
