obsessed

I'm obsessed with a new (to me) youtube channel, Tsvoric. I have watched her videos of DIY Christmas decorations for hours yesterday and today I am tempted to start over. Here I love the pistachio shells flowers!!!

I have an unhealthy obsession with Christmas decorations in general. I can't help but add something to my collection of decorations

Are you fluent enough in Russian to understand her? Dan had 8 years of Russian at school but forgot everything. I have always wanted to learn it but I have an enormous problem with languages not written in the Latin alphabet. I might try again now, apparently this is a form of dyslexia connexted to the adhd, even if I am totally not dyslexic in any of the languages I know.

I don't understand Russian at all, unfortunately, but the videos are explicit enough.

Haha! That Christmas tree is for houses with low ceilings!

[lisa_thecat]

YES! And the tree works well in narrow spaces too! I saw a dozen of people who got this tree on a German Ikea deco group. I was wondering if it was a German thing. This tree is not available in Ikea Romania.

[rock_dinosaur]

Yeah, they've obviously thought carefully about the design of the tree! I don't know: maybe skinny Christmas trees are the tradition in Germany? I'd be interested to know what Ikea's Christmas trees are like here. They do have a big shop in Edinburgh, but it's right out on the edge of town and it would take me an hour to get there and another hour to get back. Besides, I can't afford a Christmas tree and I don't want to be tempted to buy one!

That's a really cute tree! I'm looking forward to putting ours up, two small trees, one in Chris's room and one in my office. No snow in sight here. It was 13°C outside today and I'm still harvesting lettuce in the garden!

[lisa_thecat]

Wow, fresh lettuce from your garden! Here the snow melted but it's still very cold. We had a long autumn but it's definitely over now.
First I was baffled by that tree, but it grew on me the more I saw it. It's really cute!
Of course your Christmas tree goes in your office - that's where you spend most of your time! My main tree is in the livingroom but I have tiny ones in the rest of the apartment as well.

I watched the video - she has so much patience to make something like that. It's beautiful.

The IKEA Christmas tree is nice. It's quite narrow so would suit small rooms.

[lisa_thecat]

I love how she uses many natural elements and I wish I collected cones and stones and seeds because they look beautiful and you can easily decorate with them and create wonderful thongs.
Ikea always has ingenious options for smaller apartments. I really like this about them.

I LOVE Christmas decorations! We have a bunch of random things around our own. Maybe I will make a short video sometime. :D

Where are you going in Switzerland?

[lisa_thecat]

I am going to a village near Luzern, Buochs. I can't wait! (But I am also very stressed about it, especially since I will be staying at my cousin's and I worry about inconveniencing her).

[zvezda]

I hope it won't be stressful. I bet it will be absolutely gorgeous this time of year!

[lisa_thecat]

I am sure everything is gorgeous there. The weather is still too warm for snow, but surely it will be pretty without snow too.
