We don’t usually do a lot of decorating at Christmas time.

Family visits that take us away.

Small apartment with very little room for a traditional tree.

 

 

But because of our nautical ‘obsession’,

I decided to add a little something extra to our

minimal decor…

…little nautical charms
strung as a garland for our tiny table-top tree…
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
…Francois strung the balcony lights…
 
 
…while I decorated indoors…
 
 
 
…I love Francois’ idea for the anchor…

 
 
…my treasured Patience Brewster collection…
 
 
 
…and the final touch –
my little USB-lit tree while I work…
