It’s less murky in real life

Today was the day to Christmas-ify the house.

We always wait until December is in double numbers.

The boys and I got carried away making leias from magazines (except ours are obviously garlands). The hall is fairly dripping in them now.

There is something particularly pleasing about getting well thumbed (and then cut into for the scrapbook) magazines out of the recyling bin because you’ve found another crafty use for them!

Excuse the photo; it’s awful, I know.

But everything is grey and damp here in England.

My friend Dave is spitting feathers if he is reading this because he keeps telling me to get a tripod so I can take photos with a longer exposure time which will help solve the ‘everything is too murky’ problem and I clearly still haven’t listened to him.

Sorry Dave.

    It is murky here, long exposure won’t help that;-)
