Decorating for Christmas on a low budget

Pine twigs and small trees found in the woods are very decorative as Christmas decorations, and the best part that it´s free as well. Christmas are usually very expensive, so I try to be creative and use minimal on decorations..


The black trees on the table used to be green, but I have spray painted two of them black, and two in matt grey. But who knows, next year they might be in an other color *smile*.


I love my little Juniper tree that I found in the woods. It´s actually believed that juniper brings good luck to those that use it around their home and drives away evil in all its forms. The berries of the juniper tree are said to attract luck, good fortune and business success. Let´s hope it´s true!
