Tip of the day
Make your own decorations
Reduce waste and try your hand at making christmas decorations this year. Paper chains are easy and make a nice substitute for tinsel. Instead of baubles for the tree, wrap match boxes up like tiny presents, and hang with ribbon or a thread. You can hang dried pine cones or seed heads from the garden in the same way - stick on some glitter for a bit of sparkle.
