I had some time yesterday and decided to take the Christmas decorations down. It's a bit earlier than usual.
Every year, I love the tradition of getting them out and putting them up. It's festive. I've collected these decorations over many years. Each item is special.
With the fireplace crackling (it's been cold) and the decorations up, it really seems like Christmas.
This year, ever since the day after Christmas, the decorations started to seem bothersome. Too much stuff. I prefer less clutter. So, down they came and back into their boxes.
I'm quite organized. I label the boxes and try to put "like" things together. It's never perfect but it's much easier to decorate next year if I know what's in each box.
I stopped at the market and bought some tulips which now are my only decorations. They haven't opened yet, but they will last for at least a week. It still looks a bit empty but we'll get used to it, we have 11 months until the next round of decorations.
