Minimal

Today I made a new front door wreath.. dogwood and willow from the garden.  The orange and the eucalyptus from the last of my birthday flowers. 
Another full on busy day getting things prepared for a lovely family Christmas.  I managed to line the inside of the little dresser with some wallpaper and so now it is useable which is great.  I can finish the other bits and bobs I want to do to it after Christmas and concentrate on fun and festivities. 
Went to the market and invited a friend in for coffee afterwards and we had a wonderful catch up.  It is good to stop and enjoy the moment like that. 
So the longest night began... we lit candles at dinner and look forward to the days lengthening once more.
