Only 337 days to go!

It's never too early to start preparing for Christmas. The Sled was red but Marlanes' theme for 2016 Christmas is Blue and White so it needs repainting. The cones are also now nice and white as is the pot at the bottom of the small 'tree' that sits on the mantlepiece, its a Christmas tree shaped wire with a door for putting the pot-pourri bits in which includes the cones.
To be fair to Marlane these are jobs that she was planning to do when I was in hospital. Although I'm not going into hospital now the jobs still have to be done so they can be put back into the attic with the Christmas boxes.
