Reviving the Arts & Crafts Xmas

Its 10 am and yet its so foggy and gray outside it could be nearing evening. The KIO tours have disappeared and so have, I imagine, the great skyscrapers further up the Castellana. They have been kidnapped by banks of fluffy clouds. Setting the perfect stage for a weekend of staying at home and enjoying a bit of arts & crafts.

First up on the list: bringing out and placing all the Christmas decorations.

Then, once the tone is set and I'm in the spirit, happily humming "Deck the halls..." its time to get serious and start on the hand crafted gifts that will be "de rigeur" this Christmas season. Promise to take some pics. There will be no "Christmas shopping" this year. Only "Christmas making"!
