Home For The Holidays

As this gentle season may you find time
to see the beauty of each quiet moment
- Helena White

Our Christmas tree sits in the corner of our family room beside out fireplace.
Sparkles and glittering lights and ornaments fill our room with luminous beauty.
Our house has been transformed with the help of a little Christmas magic

I love filling glass cylinders with colourful ornaments

Our recollections are what

make Christmas so special…

Our many wonderful memories

are never gone, they are still there

hidden in the midst of our

childlike enthusiasm

❤  Collected Charms  ❤

I love decorating with family heirlooms which were lovingly 

passed down from my Mother and her Mother. 

It’s like wrapping our home in a loving

nostalgic embrace. These are the quiet gifts of Christmas.

Battery operated candles are amazing! 

They have a timer. They come on around 5 pm 

and stay on for five before they shut themselves off… 

How great is that? 

Tinsel and tree lights

gifts brightly tied

The happiest feelings inside

Surprise plans, hushed preparations

A mood of wonder and anticipation

Goodwill and cheer to all

For the once a year

Magic of Christmas

is here

❤

 

It was very early morning and the stillness of the dawn

was upon us while soft snow fell on the housetops

as the household awakened from Christmas Eve slumber

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Love Helena

❤
