I'm so fed up with living in a perpetual cloud here and needing lights on all day, that I've put up my dresser lights to cheer things up. As you see, I haven't the knack of photographing this sort of thing but they look jolly. And they cost me 50p at the market last year!

Lovely.
Going to put my "all year snowflakes" on now

Bah indeed! These vintage ones seem fine. I have another vintage lot, picked up old but unused at the market, which I'll save for Christmas. I know lots of people have lights up all year; don't know why I'm so puritanical about it.

Ha ha!

I feel sentimental about that. Strange.

So pretty and cheering, what a good idea - I like the extra sparkle it gives to the china. I know I've got a set stashed away somewhere...

They are lovely!
Certainly cheered me up, anyway.

Good! How to spread cheer; I must remember.

Can't beat 'em. I remember when we got our first ones (they were huge in those days) and how magical they seemed.

Very pretty!

It's so gloomy outside, I am tempted to put the Christmas lights out early.

Pretty. Sometimes we need all the little things we can get...
