Only 4 Sleeps until Christmas
Feeling cosy inside as the outside is covered with snow. Our tree still gives a fresh pine smell into the house and I’m feeling inspired my deep and rich colours the closer we get to Christmas. I have no idea how I will set the table for Christmas Day, but I’m thinking a tables cape…
