As we start a new decade, I wanted to reflect on the past year. Although I work full time, I have tried to spend more time being creative and getting a work/life balance. I will need to work on this some more in 2020.
These were my top nine projects on instagram during 2019 (based on likes and comments):

I wanted to share a few photos of our Christmas tree and Christmas table. This year we had a low key Christmas. My youngest daughter finally got the pink tree she has always wanted.

Our Christmas table was pink and red. I used my Silhouette Portrait to cut gold vinyl names to personalise the wine glasses at each place setting. We had little chocolate bears instead of Christmas crackers this year.
