Musical Christmas Trees!! ;-)
Thursday 4 December 2008
Your 'alternative' morning!
You'll have a good choice of inside and outside seating.
You'll sit inside with me today... as it's a bit nippy outside although we seem to have escaped the worst weather..we usually do, here in South Devon.
And you'll love this little place (cos I'm telling you, you will!!)
And then when you've had your fill and taken your photos, naturally, you can come with me up the hill and savour the delights of Totnes..you'll already know a little about this quirky town because I've blogged it too many times to mention!
So many Christmas trees ! A most pleasant surprise!
Totnes is twinned with Vire in France , which this particular tree depicts .
You wonder what the people of Vire think of Totnes!! ;-)
You've enjoyed your morning in Totnes so much that you ask to come with me again, for late night shopping! A treat not to be missed!
On the way home, you ask if we can just nip into Fermoys, a garden centre just near Ipplepen...where you discover this gorgeous craft cabin with the nicest owner!!
You arrive home tired but happy...you really do know how to have a good time, don't you?
See you, for Totnes by night, on Tuesday 16th...and don't be late!! ;-)

The only thing I own from Fortnum and Mason!!
Yes, it's an apron!
A present from my mum and dad, one Christmas...from good old Fortnum and Mason!

This year I am mostly decorating my tree with...
I think this jolly little chap came from Totnes,many moons ago.
Vintage tree decs which I love...I can't get enough of these!
Some oldies from Woollies.. as are these..
And my newly acquired 'Nutcracker' tree decs, Nich brought them all the way home to Devon, from Max Krug, Munich.
And, finally, as I was saying, my newest decorations...amongst my other purchases from Cath Kidston,York...my goodness, I have just realised how restrained I was!!
Now all that I need is a tree! Although I hasten to add that I will not be decorating it quite yet!
Meanwhile, here they all are, mixed up and put into Paint Shop Pro kaleidoscope!! Pretty eh? ;-)
Do you have any favourite tree decorations?
