Holiday Decor

Since we live in a multi-faith household (me the Agnostic Jew and Nick the Agnostic Quaker/Protestant), winter holiday decorations can be a fun chance to mix and mingle traditions.  Right now we have a few winter items (garlands), and my Chanukah decorations are out.  Once Chanukah is over we will phase in a few more Christmas-y things.  For example, I splurged at Crate and Barrel a while back on votives and bought three different colors.  So right now, the votives accompanying the mantelpiece garland are blue and silver (Chanukah); in a couple of weeks they will be red and silver (Christmas).  It's fun!


 
 


 
My peace garland - made it myself!  It's a pretty blue color that didn't photograph too well.
It's reversible, so the "peace" message is also visible from the front of the house.
