Tinsel Garland

12/18/2012

Whenever this time of the year comes around, I am always looking forward to decorating.  I am a very amateur decorator, but I  love doing it.

Funny thing is, I can decorate well and keep things looking quite organized and pretty, but my favourite way of decorating, especially at Christmas time, is to go shiny.  I think it has everything to do with when I was a child. As a child, I was fascinated with the garland that my grandmothers would have hanging from their ceilings.  I am sure you saw them too.  The garland that was like tinsel and would have cut-outs of bells, trees and angels.  Of course, you could not have the streamers without the tinsel-y star center piece   You know, that one that looked like a leaf when you started out with it, but when you magically connected the two side together, you had e a star, a bell or a snowflake.  

I love having this stuff in my decoration collection. It makes me happy.  I don't care if it is tacky, I love it.  Whenever I have grandchildren (oh and I will have grand babies), I want them to come to my house and see my tacky tinsel garland and be happy.  

:o) Shiny and Tacky, just the way I like it!
