Guest post: DIY Christmas Tree

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span><br /><span style="font-family: inherit;">I am happy to jump in here at My Scandinavian Home this second Sunday of Advent. My name is Mette and my blog is called <a href="http://www.make-living.blogspot.se/" target="_blank">Make-Living</a> which has a DIY focus.</span><br /><span style="font-family: inherit;">This Christmas tree DIY idea came to me when I saw a picture of a similar one over at <a href="http://www.tierlantijn.net/index.php" target="_blank">Tierlantijn</a> but couldn't order it. It's similar to the one in shown in a Christmas post last year <a href="http://www.myscandinavianhome.blogspot.se/2011/12/oh-christmas-tree-oh-christmas-tree.html" target="_blank">here</a> on MSH and that has been doing the rounds on Pinterest. I Hope this little Christmas DIY inspires you too! :)</span><br /><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><br /><span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span><br /><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" nea="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTjLU_Wb6sDPq6PKdjcDBmwnfx-DB4wvJ8RzZTQUyYjd8Y5qgp7MG151qXaU8HgxLaSXPzrm3bHfIaQg3bhhUIfeGXq06lSNacPgS8BwKsfMzKRizmoF5i1v9m8JI3eHMU-KdvS8OCM4Y/s1600/Make-Living2.jpg" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLzV7-34SndOlLgvbzleHj3YhrwMzuoxQMpDZt0bKDjYzpJOrhhbDHGyW5A1Oi15R5HdV6qRS8dFZdcW9_Pkw8tyWAPPfmgv7ZTQD368AXRbxdaWsbeaQ9L1nfowl7rfq6TY6dLBRE-yk/s1600/IMGP8340.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" nea="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLzV7-34SndOlLgvbzleHj3YhrwMzuoxQMpDZt0bKDjYzpJOrhhbDHGyW5A1Oi15R5HdV6qRS8dFZdcW9_Pkw8tyWAPPfmgv7ZTQD368AXRbxdaWsbeaQ9L1nfowl7rfq6TY6dLBRE-yk/s1600/IMGP8340.jpg" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-svKZzUDth-dVbgNpojnRckoeFryCT7Y4OR_3Bex7_-QpbKiT6rllJ-Lh4qYd-knDqziO12c3YteVwpmvF-yKQzZhXQaHpLqE52osDCewrkkVHcU0YY7dmDxGnwNvuirppZkty_-z7kY/s1600/Make-Living3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" nea="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-svKZzUDth-dVbgNpojnRckoeFryCT7Y4OR_3Bex7_-QpbKiT6rllJ-Lh4qYd-knDqziO12c3YteVwpmvF-yKQzZhXQaHpLqE52osDCewrkkVHcU0YY7dmDxGnwNvuirppZkty_-z7kY/s1600/Make-Living3.jpg" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ7Y_o0aeTfVZfFBXxLXQT_iWPMFx_NSn29kfrc8B1MfbhyphenhyphenOgi_8jMpX0JrmDROOJMagOqTZ6aHq84pNJ1GZ3oeiFFEsLKfAjXqTU7LCrgMEZ0a_s280ckVkQLVJUum4vQWiHhE4Ldw6o/s1600/Make-Living4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" nea="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ7Y_o0aeTfVZfFBXxLXQT_iWPMFx_NSn29kfrc8B1MfbhyphenhyphenOgi_8jMpX0JrmDROOJMagOqTZ6aHq84pNJ1GZ3oeiFFEsLKfAjXqTU7LCrgMEZ0a_s280ckVkQLVJUum4vQWiHhE4Ldw6o/s1600/Make-Living4.jpg" /></a></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><br /></div><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><i></i></span><br />This Christmas tree is quite neat.

Pretty Christmas: moss and boxwood

There's nothing like bringing in a little boxwood and moss into the home at Christmas. Last night I had a play around with some wire and moss and realised just how tricky some of the beautiful decorations you see on <a href="http://pinterest.com/nikiatmsh/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a> can be, despite looking so simple! By the time I finished there was more moss on the table and floor than om my wreath! So I have borrowed some DIY tips from  <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/" jquery172042581051451210255="43" target="_blank">Martha Stewart Living</a> which have been expertly executed by Ashley Ann in the two images below.
