Just wanted to show you the Christmas decorations that start appearing towards the end of October in shops like Manor, a Swiss department store chain.
Wreaths, Christmas balls, cages…
Candles, lanterns…
Snow men….
This was the one I loved the best… glowing orbs
Reindeer’s…
More decorations…
Christmas-y stuff…
Santa Claus…
Fairy lights… I loved these too.
These lights were the best thing…
How uniform and homogeneous… so pleasing to the senses. I wonder about this so often, how people there have an eye for the aesthetic quality in things, whereas here they just mix and match colours till it looks like a drunken rainbow threw up on things. An example would be the lighting in my church back home, during the festival season it was garishly lit up with every imaginable colour of the spectrum and now during the Christmas season they have put up multicoloured stars that don’t really go well with each other. Ah, well…
Christmas tree ornaments…
Angel and a candle wreaths…
Woolen nativity figures…
Star punched candle holders…
Snowy wreaths…
Have you heard of Accuradio, it’s one of the best online radio channels… this always plays regularly at home in the background of my life, and during the Christmas season, I rarely switch it off. There are so many Holiday channels to choose from, and when I selected the country holiday channel recently, the first song that came on was Carrie Underwood’s beautiful rendition of Hark the Herald Angels sing, she does a great job with this classic Christmas song… Hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas season.
