Christmas wreath and outdoor decor

This post is part of Blogger Christmas series and BlogHop.

We bought new mailbox last year. 
It turned out a mistake.
Mail was wet and broke and the lock broke during first frost.
So I sudden found out,
I am having an extra mail box lolling around.
Hubby removed the hatch 
and I hanged it on old basketball hoop.
In the box I put some hay, pines, rose hips 
and one white ribbon.
And a candle.
Maybe I'll find an Elf to live there:

I finally got rid of summer flowers on wreath.
And add some ice instead.


Icy twigs I bought from flea market.
Snowflake and flowers are both old.
And the basic wreath is the same old one, too.



And when the lights are on,
it looks quite bright.

It is time to light up light outside
 - and let them shine through night.
The snow we got, is gone.
Front...

And back:

And now: take a look to the other Christmas Blogger Series blogs,
what they are up to:

    1. We need a lot of light around this time of the year - and I would put more, if I could get electricity
      : not enough power points. The photos are flukes - my tablet handles darkness better than my camera!

    1. Thanks, Vanessa. Now, when that little snow has gone, it is so dark, that all the light is welcome.
