I lost the Christmas tree I'd had for a while last summer, it just got too dry I think. I've bought another one to replace it and I'm hoping to give it a bit more care this year.

I love the idea of that tree changing colour. It all looks very cold but - vodka.....yum!!!

The knitting is lovely :)

I am waiting for the instructions for your glass door.... still....;)

This year's weathers were obviously a bad combination for Christmas trees.

It was very cold (by our standards) for the first few days. I was in my element -- though I did have to wear a hat! -- but P&K found it uncomfortable. After that, it turned quite mild.

I keep changing my mind about what I want for the door. Originally, I thought fish -- like the one you made for me -- but, more recently, I've been thinking that a geometrical pattern would be nice. I have seen something I like, which I've saved somewhere (just as inspiration), and I've also saved the picture of your star within a star because I really liked that, except that it was empty in the middle! When my mortgage finishes, in April-ish, I will switch into renovation mode, and this is the first 'job' on my list. The kitchen ceiling is the second ;-)

What an interesting read - so many subjects covered.

I do like the elf bear riding the deer.
And the knitted hat. I hope your niece does take some pictures on M in the Santa suit.

The Krakow tree is lovely and I do like the market with it's vaulted ceiling and cast light fittings.

Good luck with the new tree.

I hadn't really noticed the cast iron lights until you pointed them out! The Christmas decorations in Krakow are generally very tasteful and well-coordinated.

Thank you! I talk to all of my plants, but there's something special about a Christmas tree.

The table looks wonderful, and I loved the pictures from Krakow!

Sad about the tree, so I hope the new one lasts as long!

Merry Christmas hon. I hope you have a lovely day and a great year in 2019 - without a cat... *g*

Merry Christmas to you, too!

(It would be just my luck if Santa brought me a kitten for Christmas, LOL).

Such a cute little helper!! You made the teddy yourself, I imagine, and it works so well with the little reindeer!

It looks like a lovely Christmas celebration and the table looked very nice.

And how nice it is to see Krakow again, this time in wintertime (even though there wasn't any snow; is there usually?). And thank you for the link to the Russian Winnie-the-Pooh, I have bookmarked it - what I have seen so far, it looks wonderfully drawn (I love "properly" drawn cartoons, they look so homely and extra cute).

Best of luck to your new tree!

Yes, the teddy was 'mine' from the ones I made for writercon, and my sister-in-law sat him on the reindeer when she was helping me decorate.

I'll be posting some more pictures of Krakow. I think there were a few snowflakes when we were first there, but then it got much milder. They've had snow since, though -- you could see it on the web cam:

It's just rainy today. (I saw the 1900 exhibition they're advertising on the banners).

I like the 'properly' drawn cartoons, too.

Thank you!

So lovely! Thank you for the link. :)

I hope the rain will ease up soon.
