I note that others share their Christmas decorations on their blogs and they look so pretty. I rather like mine, but I can never get a decent photo - causing my competitive blogger angst to rear its head (LOL). Here they are in various stages of darkness. Our living room is small so the majority of decorations are focused around the fireplace. To try to get the effect of the lights I covered the flash with blu-tack (if I switch off the flash the camera spends five minutes exposing to get more light and the picture is all wobbly)
Full blu-tack cover on flash.
Blu-tack slightly covering flash
No blu-tack. Note viking longship on right and Anglo-Saxon pottery on left (as created by Chatterbox).
Very dark Christmas tree - it looks pretty in real life I promise. As decorated by the smallests.
Nativity. Jesus, shepherds and wise men not yet arrived. Chatterbox lay Mary down so that she could get some rest (it's a long time to stand until the 25th for a pregnant lady)
Do you like my new blog theme? Very Christmassy, bring on the mince pies!
