“ It’s not always the gifts that are wrapped
which are the best,
but simply those that are shared.
Gifts of time, love, and laughter…
Happy memories that warm the heart
at Christmas time and always.”

May the holiday season bring You joyful memories,
snug moments and may the coming year abound
in good luck and happiness!

Ever wondered what Christmastime looks like in other countries? Like in Romania maybe? Like in Kolozsvár, to be more specific?
Milliver’s Travels has gone all out this holiday season and has prepared quite a number of lovely Christmas-y articles for your viewing pleasure.
Here is my very seasonally festive article, about Christmastime in Kolozsvár, complete with lovely photos and music!
Go read it. Listen to it. I’ll wait

You guys already know how much I love Harry Potter. So much so that even though I had all my books in Hungarian, I purchased the last volume of the series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, in English because I couldn’t even imagine waiting for the translated version.
So it’s probably not a surprise that I’ve instantly fell in love with a Golden Snitch Christmas tree ornament tutorial I saw over at Tiny Apartment Crafts a couple of weeks ago.
It took me a while to finish because I don’t usually work with wire (and still dislike it!) and I had a glue gun to purchase as well, but my ornament is finally done and ready to use.

The Golden Snitch! Ornament Tutorial from TinyApartmentCrafts
I couldn’t wait to decorate the Christmas tree today and search for the best spot to place my Golden Snitch!
PS: it’s my only ornament up right now, so I better get going and decorate the rest of the tree

Last year I received a greeting card
from a very dear friend of mine which read:
“ It’s not always the gifts that are wrapped
which are the best,
but simply those that are shared.
Gifts of time, love, and laughter…
Happy memories that warm the heart
at Christmas time and always.”
So I’m using this as my Christmas greeting to all of you, as these few lines express everything I believe in!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
PS: Loving right now –> this book Christmas tree made by the folks at Gleeson library in San Francisco last year. [via Recyclart]

I kind of outdid myself last year and posted tutorials for a week’s worth of Christmas crafts
So this year I’ll list them here for your guys to have all in one place for easier access (since I’ll be using the same methods). And I’ll only post a couple of new ones depending on my available free time before the holidays.
Happy Christmas crafting everyone
