I love the idea of a wreath. I even have one for Hanukkah. It is quite the festive shape. Once again, this one is invisible at night. So it’s nice that some people decorate for both day and night.
I’ve shared this yellow gate before. Look how festive it is with the bow.
I had to zoom in on this bow, all of this sharing decorations and creativity makes me so happy. It certainly brightens up the shortest darkest days of the year.
Nature gets in on the game. This isn’t Holly, I have no idea what it is. A tree of some sort, with deep green leaves and bright red berries.
Viewed from another angle.
We get the best of fall colors in December. A number of trees go from green to yellow, through orange and maybe red. It’s no New England, but I love it anyway.
Bright yellow against a dark green backdrop.
Golden yellow. We do have trees where the leaves simply turn brown and fall off, no need to take pictures of those. And then we have our evergreens. Many have needles, but in this climate. Some do have broader leaves, but it doesn’t get cold enough for them to freeze. So the leaves remain.
Not a decoration at all, but this tableaux caught my attention. I do like the straws, someone is still handing out straws.
In my own garden, roses still bloom, under some of my owls.
I’m still getting red roses.
Yellow, the lemons are ripening. It will soon be time to make another batch of marmalade!
