MELLIES CORNER

Hey guys, 

I thought I would do a small post on our #Caimas Christmas decorations this year. As it will be #Caimas - [Cairo's birthday and Christmas all in one], I plan to get a few balloons and birthday type decorations too, but oh so typical, I've left that till the last minute. 

This is the first year in about 15 or more years that we will have a little Christmas tree up at home. 

Last year, there was just no point in decorating our home with decorations other than tinsel, as my little man would have DESTROYED them lol. We don't call him destructor for nothing. 

So this year as he is older and listens wayyy better, I thought I would bring a little festivity to our home. I will not be putting up our little tree until Christmas Eve just so bubs knows that this is something a little special. It is also the first Christmas that we will be celebrating without our papa bear due to his faith, so with keeping that in mind and compromising, I still wanted to decorate a little, but without it being too in your face. 

Space is also limited at home so I was after something small and festive, but not too overly christmassy. I also wanted something that wouldn't be too much bother to put up, decorate and take down within a day or two. 

I am super girly, I love all things pink, glittery, sparkly you name it. However I wanted to incorporate some decorations that I knew my son would love to, so I didn't go overboard on the pink sparkle although there were many items tempting me.

So do read on to see how I intend to decorate our Christmas Tree this year.
