Christmas Decors Are Here Again

We usually start decorating our house for the Christmas season as early as Nov. 3 or just a few days after the Halloween. This is one of the many things that I love about Christmas. I really look forward to seeing all those flickering lights, the beautiful poinsettias, and the glittering tinsels. They make me excited!

We never experienced having a Christmas tree but it’s okay. We were contented with our home-made ornamental star-shaped lanterns :) When me and my siblings were much younger, we used to make parols with colored plastics, crepe paper and bamboo sticks. We even put nametags on each lantern and we proudly showed them off to our friends and playmates. My sister who was the most creative among us, even got paid for doing a number of parols for some of our neighbors. 

This coming Christmas, wouldn’t it be nice to have personalized christmas ornaments  ? I chanced upon a website where I can personalize my own ornament in a few easy steps and it’s inexpensive, perfect for people like me who are in a tight budget :) The website’s name is cafepress.com. They have a lot of creative designs that you will surely love! It’s so fast and easy. Just upload you favorite photo and then choose a template. Make your order now!

I love making parol too when I was little. It was a christmas tradition that I think very uniquely Pinoy. And I miss the colorful christmas decorations back home… it’s very unique unlike here.
