Are you ready for the holidays? Did you decorate your house
already?
Our team members are working hard on their Etsy shops but
also finding time to make their houses beautiful. Here are some photos for you
to see, along with some ideas and recipes:
Buying some new holiday ornaments became a tradition already
in Yulia's family (
bysiki). They love handmade and vintage toys the best.
Through the years, Yulia and her husband collected enough
interesting toys to decorate a few of holiday
trees so Yulia can choose the decor style she likes this year and use the rest
of her ornaments and toys to decorate the rest of the house. This is a great
way to have a new holiday look every year!
Marina (
softknitdreams) also
lives and works in Moscow, Russia.
While this winter is not too snowy there, she keeps her holiday spirit bright
and knits cute warm hats for those who love to catch those white fragile
snowflakes with their mouth.
We are talking of kids of all ages :)
Galina from
tobestudio knits the cutest fashion sweaters
while getting ready for the Holidays.
Elena (
DizArtEx) from Estonia
will decorate her home with handmade stained glass snowflakes. Isn't it pretty?
Here is two lovely Christmas recipes for you from Italy
to try this holiday season.
One is
baccala, a traditional Christmas dish for some regions in Italy.
Salted cod (baccala) baked with potatoes, vegetables and sprinkled with cheese
on top, sounds really good during this cold weather, doesn't it?
Warm and aromatic apple gluhwein is Milly's
(
millyscolection) favorite this year. The
best part, it's non-alcoholic recipe so it can be made for the whole family! Her
recipe: clean and slice the apple, lemon and orange, mix it with an apple juice,
cinnamon and clover. Cook on a medium heat until boils, then turn the heat off
and cover. Let it stand for about 40 minutes, reheat and add some honey. Enjoy!
It's summer in Australia
right now so Sveta
cherrygardendolls
will also decorate her holiday tree with flowers along with traditional decor:
Here in USA
we love the holidays and we love to celebrate. We are busy with our daily lives
but we find time for the holidays in our hearts. So we decorate, we gather with
family and friends and we love to be home for the Holidays. We love handmade
decor together with store bought items. The holidays makes everything look so
pretty!
Christmas in Arizona
can be white or not, depends of where you live, so we decorate accordingly:
We love our Christmas trees!
