Last year I became so obsessed with the wonderful local wreaths I started photographing them, much to the embarrassment of the girls who were usually with when I took the pictures. This year, having made a note of the whereabouts of my favourite Christmas displays, I went out alone and photographed them over the course of one very circuitous walk up to school. I recognised some of the wreaths from last year, though the brussels were adorning a different door last December.
This is by no means a comprehensive survey of local weaths – since taking these photos more and more have appeared, all very photogenic but the weather has been against me (incessant rain and terrible light), so I haven’t been able to photograph them.
I haven’t been able to photograph our wreath either, as it only went up an hour ago and the light had gone, so I’ll post it tomorrow along with a picture of the tree – though I’ve discovered that Christmas trees are very hard to photograph.
NB There is another nice wreath round-up at Spring Cottage.
Best use for sprouts I’ve seen.
Happy Christmas Charlotte
Lovely! We haven’t managed to get one done this year. Do you think the sprout people have moved, or been copied?
Happy Christmas x
Lovely. I haven’t made one yet but I feel quite inspired x
I remembered that your Christmas doors post last year was how I happily discovered your blog. It is a beautiful window into your city. Merry Xmas to you and your family and a Happy New Year.
Your neighbourhood is far classier than ours! However, if it’s a round up of naff Santa please stop here signs, we’re a prime destination. Merry Christmas to you!
What a very festive neighbourhood, fantastic efforts! The different colours of the front doors is also very nice! The sprout one is genius – I need to attempt something similar next year, would be great to hang on the greenhouse.
Hope you have a lovely christmas!

Lovely aren’t they. I’m going to link back here too. Have a great Christmas. x

ahhh, that’s funny. It’s exactly the sort of thing I do, and my son cringes behind his fingers.
I think these are beautiful photos. The brussel sprout one is a bit of a shocker. Can’t decide if it’s brilliant or just plain weird.
Thank you. Yes brussels are clearly a love or loathe thing whether on or off the plate!
