For us here the celebrations begin on the night of the 21st December at Winter Solstice and continue until January 6th when we celebrate Drie Koningen
Leiny and I put the garland across the granite pillars in the kitchen and put a pot of gluhwein on the stove.
The beds all had a festive makeover too. New covers and a gingham heart add a touch of cozy warmth, an inviting space to rest after all the cleaning and cooking.
The stove in the living room is really the heart of our home and Mr. Margie spent some time chopping the firewood for the holidays.
A choir of Dickensian Knitted mice spread some festive cheer. I knit these little mice about twelve years ago and each year they have pride of place among the decorations.
Mr. Margie, Leiny and I went up to the Christmas tree farm yesterday and picked up two Nordmann Firs, the smell in the house is enchanting.

Yes, I enjoyed my evening by the fire! What a charming home you have! GLUHWEIN--oh, I miss that! Walking around the Christkindl Markt in Nurenburg with a glass of Gluhwein is the ultimate! I need to make some when our son comes home on Christmas Eve. Happy Winter!

I popped over from April's blog, and you have such a pretty home. I've fallen in love with your bedcover in this post - I wonder where you got it! I love your CK bags. Lucky you.
