Paper stars! Love them. I asked in an earlier post, but don't think you responded (not like your busy or anything - ;)
Did you purchase these, or make them? I would love to get some. Also, in the same post I asked about your wreath with all of the lights on it. Love. Did you make, or purchase?
Thanks... have a safe trip.

Lovely photographs of your holiday flowers. I have plenty of white flower of this season as well. My amaryllis hasn't popped open yet. They really get you in the holiday kind of mood. Have a great time in NYC, and please snap some pics of Manhattan Christmas for us to see!

I love white-so crisp and clean! What is that gorgeous wreath made with? I can't quite see all the detail-it's lovely!

Brandi, I did answer :) http://chezlarsson.typepad.com/myblog/2008/11/prepping-for-advent-1st.html But don't mind answering again :) The paper stars are bought and so is the lit wreath. The stars are from a local store called Åhléns but the lit wreath is from IKEA and is probably available somewhere in your country.

Evonne Y, The base is a cardboard circle and then I hot glued a bunch of stuff to it. I'll do a separate post on it when I get back!

Den vita julen är väldigt vilsam. Jag önskar att vi kunde ha hyacinter hemma men jag nyser så fort jag ser dem.
Jag köpte Ballografen på G.A.D när vi var i Stockholm och de finns i vitt!
