2016 Christmas Reveal!

Finally everything is up! It was fun decorating for Christmas this year! I really like this year's theme, which is Black, White & Gold. We got a new white tree this year and I am in full force decorating it! So excite to share the finished tree and some decors around the house!

Started off with the plain white tree. I randomly made the black tree topper bow and was happy how it turned out! I used a 30 metre 300 bulbs LED light in warm white. You wanna make sure the wire is clear or white instead of the classic green wire that goes with the green tree. 

I also use a faux fur rug as my tree skirt. Added the Christmas gifts using my DIY gift wrapper.

I decorated the tree with my Spray Painted Christmas Balls and my heart-shaped DIY Christmas Ornaments.

I saw this really cute Christmas train at Japan Home and I couldn't resist it! It has a headlight and makes train sounds! Only for S$10! 

I made this Mini Christmas Wreath and hang it on the bathroom door!

A display corner on our feature wall full of Christmas Nanoblocks! I really like the DIY mini Christmas bunting too!

I changed my gallery wall art prints with Christmas ones. Really quick and easy to transform this space! You can the free printables here.

The wall space about my sofa was initially a big canvas painting of the Eiffel Tower but I decided to change this space with some handmade tissue paper pom poms! You can search for "Tissue Paper Pom Poms" on Pinterest and these are lots of tutorial on how to make them. It's really easy to make!

Since I will be sticking the paper pom poms onto the wall, There is no need for me to make a full round pom pom. Hence I only use half of the required tissue paper (about 5-6 pcs), and of course in Black, White & Gold!

I also DIY-ed this bunting! Simply print your desired design into triangles and join them up! Here is another free printable for you!

Christmas Nanoblocks

We never thought we would be interested with Nanoblocks but when we bought our first Santa Nanoblock, we were hooked! And we got a bunch of them to form our Nanoblock Christmas Family.

I think the best way to speed up the process is to categorize the blocks first. We sort them by colour and size. Well, I wouldn't recommend doing this on the bed though.  😂

First set of our Christmas Nanblocks! We got these four from Japan Home for S$5 each, plus additional 20% off when you spend S$15 or more. I think the Santa's sleigh with the reindeers is really cute!

Then I saw they were selling at Miniso for S$3.90 each only! 😒
So I got these two!

We have a feature wall with three display "boxes" and we put these nanoblocks in one of the display box. Can you spot the Mini Christmas Wreath?

I also added a mini Christmas bunting which is so cute! They're only 5cm high! You can easily make your own bunting in any colour! Just print them on card stock paper and stick them to any string or ribbon. Click on the photo below for the link to download the free printable!
