i don't know about you but i am not a big fan of plastic christmas decorations( yes there are always exceptions!)

i have started collecting glass ones, i haven't found any vintage ones yet, they have probably all broken!

during one of my regular treasure hunting trips i was over the moon, excited to discover a brand new box of genuine german straw stars. i remember making them as a child, these are truly beautiful, each one is unique with a dusting of glitter,

we normally have a real tree at christmas but because we are going up north on the 20th i decided a branch would last longer.
