‘Sleigh’ed our Christmas decor!
It’s our favourite time of the year! I’m sure a lot of you resonate with a similar thought. It’s holiday season, and there’s just something in the cold December air ain’t it?! This year has been a celebration of moments in a slightly different hue, quieter, reflective moods, family times and smaller gatherings in safe environments. However, significant moments can be created from the mundane too, all one needs is beautiful, apt décor to set the holiday spirit.
To set the tone we filled the office with everything Christmassy, whilst sipping on a hot cup of cocoa of course! The highlight was our intimate potluck dinner with the cutest personalised table scape. So now we’re going to reveal our locally sourced elements that completed it, along with visuals that give you a little glimpse into our festive feel.

This time of the year is all about high spirits, (yes, pun intended) magic and a little bit of mayhem! This PS Christmas had it all! Mulled Wine, Secret Santa and the Ugly Christmas Sweater contest. As we sit here on our desks and write this post we’re not so secretly wishing we could rewind the clock. Well, since there is no time machine of that sort, it’s back to reality; nonetheless, we are still looking forward to a wonderful new year.
For all the curious ones out there, we’re going to elaborate or let’s say, ramble now, so read on only if you’re interested.
Early this December the buildup of Christmas began with the office all ‘decked’ up and as tradition, Secret Santa chits were picked. After a long wait it was finally time for the Ugly Christmas Sweater Potluck Party. Each of us dressed in our own DIY creativity, yeah, we might as well have been part of the décor, with our shiny, glittery and glee ensembles! All ready and looking the part, we headed over to the lovely set up table and enjoyed our feast entailing a baked cranberry brie bread bowl, Christmas tree spinach dip breadsticks and what not along with some mulled wine. Merry and stuffed to the gills, it was time to vote for the Ugliest, Most Creative and Most Festive sweaters. A tough, tough vote! The rest of the time was spent unwrapping gifts and guessing our Secret Santas by the Christmas tree and then . . . Just kidding :) See you next year!
