Holiday Decorations Hello everyone! It’s another Manic Monday. New day of the week has begun and for sure everyone is busy preparing for work today. I woke up early since the online class of my youngest son starts at 730 am. Upon waking up, I took his phone and checked the messages and then their teacher told them that their wouldn’t be online class today. So instead of waking him up I let him sleep more and woke him later for his second class. I took this time to checked and write an article for today. I really can think of what to share today, I actually run out of topic to share too. So I guess I’ll just just write about what I did on the previous days. Last Saturday I finally put up our christmas tree inside our home. Usually I set it up during November after the All Souls Day. I always wanted to see some christmas spirit even at this month. But last year, because of my handmade crafts, I was able to put it on the third week of December, just days before the celebration of Christmas happened. I was really busy that time because of so many orders that I received each day. Well anyway, putting up our christmas tree doesn’t take long because all the things I needed were just kept in the corner of our house. Last year, since I wanted a snow effect on my christmas tree I put some fiber fill on the tree, so it would looked like there is a snow in it.

This year, bitcoin cash has been a big part of my life, it inspired me to make some handmade felt ornaments with a bitcoincash logo on it. I made some pieces of it last week. It was actually very easy to do. I just made a pattern and then cut it from the felt cloth. The next thing I did, is put a glue and then handstitched it. And my bitcoin cash felt ornaments were all ready.

On Saturday afternoon, I took out the box where I kept our old christmas tree. I think we bought it last 2014 and if my math is correct this is gonna be the 8th year that were gonna use it. So far it is still good, and hopefully it will last for more years. I cleaned first the mess downstairs and then move my handmade crafts things to somewhere. The place where I am going to place our christmas tree is the place where I am doing my crafts. So after it was cleared, I now set up our christmas tree for this year. My first born tried to helped me by putting some ornaments in it. But I think he was just playing so I told him to stopped and let them go outside and played with their friends. After sometime, I put this and that. After being satisfied with my decor I took a picture of it and post it right away on my noise account.

There you go, the christmas spirit is finally inside our home. You can now pick some lollipop and candy on it, but sorry to disappoint you it’s not edible. By the way those candies were all handmade too. I also put some christmas lights on it and that night it was twinkling right before my eyes, and it feels really good. Oh before I forgot, I also hang some garlands on our stairs with some of my handmade decors too. I haven’t hang my handmade wreath on our front screen door yet because I don’t know how will I do it. I’ll figure it out this week.

Final Thoughts We can always celebrate christmas even without decorations. It doesn’t also need to be super grand. We can always opt to do it yourself or we can simply use our old ones so we don’t have to spend a lot. We should always remember that Jesus is the main reason we are celebrating this season. We have to keep in mind that above all the great things this holiday may bring, the birth of Jesus Christ should never forgotten. _____________________________ Lead image used from Unsplash while the rest are mine.
