Sufficiently Snowballed

Christmas is quickly bearing down upon us and it seems like this year is moving faster than most. I love the holiday season, all the parties, food and reuniting of loved ones. It's enough to make you sick with cheer. This year, however, I won't be partaking in any of my normal festivities and I feel oddly removed from all the Christmas bustle because of it. Moving half way across the world, far away from all your loved ones, could put a damper on anyone's Christmas spirit.



Thankfully, I'm not the kind of person to mope. I figured, if I couldn't go to Christmas, I would bring Christmas to me, and I've been decorating like a crazed elf ever since. I've been trying to make most of everything myself; which is not without it's troubles, but completely worth it in the end. One of the better things I've made is a snowball garland for my tree. I got the idea for it here.




It was wonderfully easy and fun. I'm planning on making another strand today just so that I can be sure my tree is sufficiently snowballed. (That was fun to type.)




I'm feeling more in the Christmas mood already.
