Norwegian home ready for Christmas

I stumbled upon this beautiful Norwegian home on pinterest ( my favorite hangout place). It is far from typical Scandinavian Christmas decoration, more like American modern country... :-)

Christmas wreaths

My plan is to finish the Christmas cleaning and put up the Christmas decorations next weekend, except for the tree, that can wait a bit longer. As I have mentioned before I don't decorate much, except for one room in the house, my eleven years old, where it looks like Christmas wonderland. For the rest of the house  I want to have everything clean but a wreath is a must. Here you can learn to make your own wreath.

Christmas is just around the corner

I am such a minimalist especially when it comes to decorating for Christmas. Although I do not decorate much my self am I quite passionate about it. I have a white advent - light  I have not used in years, so when I saw this picture, I got the idea to spray (or paint) it black.

Christmas tree

Ég ólst upp við það að jólatréð var ekki skreytt fyrr en á Þorláksmessu og hélt þeirri hefð framan af. Við fórum fjölskyldan í gær og keyptum jólatré, svo það er ekki eftir neinu að bíða ... 

It was a tradition in my family when I was growing up to decorate the Christmas tree the day before Christmas. But not this year, I have already bought the tree, so there is no reason to wait...

Aðventukransinn minn í ár! Yngsti fjölskyldumeðlimurinn hefur reyndar séð þá jólalegri :-)

Almost time...

Það má alveg fara að huga að aðventukransinum, ekki nema rúm vika þar til við kveikjum á fyrsta kertinu. 

It is time to start planning the advent wreath,  it's only 10 days until we light the first candle.

It is that time of the year

Það er allt í lagi að fara plana jólaskrautið í ár þó svo að nóvember sé rétt að byrja:-) Allavega kveikja á kertum og setja greni í vasa. 

Even though it is just the beginning of November it's alright to start planning the Christmas decorations:-)  At least light up some candles and put some spruce in a vase.
