Ok, i know the pictures are blurry, but the lighting was poor. One day, i decided our house was bland and i was excited for christmas, and mom said i couldn't come home and decorate for almost a month, so i decided to decorate here! of course, i'm poor and didn't want to actually buy decorations, so i got construction paper, instead. Of course, the little christmas tree and baubles hanging from the light fixture are not construction paper, but everything else is. And yes, making the decorations is time when i'm not randomly studying or something, but it makes me happy, so i don't care! >P (that's me sticking my toungue out at all of you nay-sayers). So just look how festive everything is! There's a stocking for me and each of my housemates, and the gingerbread girls are designed to look like us. Guess which one I am! Next up: A life size christmas tree to match the fireplace! Note: the rest of the pics are in the following postings, and yes, there are a lot of pics, but i'm proud of our little house!
