Moss green and brown fir cones
Christmas is my favourite time of the year! In Germany, Christmas is the biggest holiday and many Christmas traditions, such as the Christmas tree and the advent wreath stem from Germany (as you will have heard me mentining on more than one occasion previously)!
This year I am going to spend Christmas in Australia, swapping Gluehwein for stubbies and bitterly cold Christmas markets for Bondi beach. To get into the festive spirit, I’m going to decorate our tiny London apartment during the pre-Christmas period. Think lovely ornaments and traditional wooden nutcrackers and figurines from the Ore Mountains.
Gingerbread houses, cinnamon swirls and cheeses – a scrumptious Christmas bakery
During my last visit to Berlin, I re-visited my favourite flower& décor shop in Potsdam near Berlin, home of the Castle Sans Souci. Every year, this shop houses an extraordinary Christmas décor exhibition. It’s the most creatively & lovingly decorated Christmas store I’ve seen, always rejuvenating my festive spirit every year. Enjoy the pictures and get drawn into the world of frost and Santa claus!
