Seriously reconsidering the sub now.<br />Country Homes and Interiors was much better this year - so I still feel Christmassy :)Jacquihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01659012917888444554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6157054968656413086.post-73182864041215337322009-11-11T20:10:29.412+00:002009-11-11T20:10:29.412+00:00I was thinking the same thing when my Country Livi...I was thinking the same thing when my Country Living was delivered this week - now Christmas can start! But then the magic didn't work. I think it is more lightweight than it used to be. The Christmas edition this year isn't what I'd call a keeper. In fact I was rather fatigued by it - each page I turned seemed to be same old formula. Sometimes the same formula is deeply comforting, but I was somehow wearied by yet more ladies in large country 'hices' (to be said with a Prince Charles accent) making sweet crafty things, the woman in Devon with the perfect vegetable garden, and Elisabeth Luard's largely inedible recipes. The images WERE lovely, but maybe I've just seen to many of them. Or I'm just becoming a grinch.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11269887100694066103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6157054968656413086.post-32580290320651180522009-11-10T03:24:50.468+00:002009-11-10T03:24:50.468+00:00Oh I am so glad you got some inspiration from the ...Oh I am so glad you got some inspiration from the videos. It is fun to get those creative juices flowing. I too like to look at pictures in Country Living...I should be getting mine soon as well. I really need to get rid of a bunch of my magazines...I have been collecting them and have a hard time tossing them...sometimes I rip out the pages I like and put them in a notebook and then I just have a large notebook of favorite things...which is also fun to look at. That was when I didn't have 4 kids though! hmmm. How time flies.<br /><br />Happy decorating. Loved your bunting idea.
