Christmas Decs by Sophie Cox-O'Shaughnessy

Fortunate to have a holly tree on my allotment so have started making Christmas decorations with some sprigs.

I missed tending a garden and although I have a back yard it's not the same. I was one of the ones, who when the bedroom tax came into effect, (2012) I decided to move.  Very recently I got an allotment, something I thought I would always like one day but this is like tending a garden as the land demands alot (understatement of the year) of TLC.

As an Artist I am always very creative anyway and I like to be environmentally friendly when I can.

I have upcycled, using an Orangina bottle for a vase.  This week, and sticking to a budget, I found Poundland have imitation berries.  It's very simple, but sometimes simple is best.

Anyhow, I hope you like my Christmasy themed floral decoration and feel free to make your own like this or similar if you do.

At the moment, there isn't any space really for me to put a Christmas tree in the window unfortunatey so instead I have placed this in my bay window, but this is just the start of my decorations going up.  #SuperExcited
