Something Starry

I haven't written a Somethings post in awhile and with Christmas fast approaching, I thought a star something post would be appropriate.  I've always loved stars.  I even painted stars on the walls in my bedroom as a kid.  It was really difficult to choose just a few star items/diys to share with you today.  They're all in monochrome and natural colours that I think are perfect for a Scandinavian Christmas.  I'm really wanting to try a couple of things from the inspiration below in my home.

To Print:  

This O Holy Night Print can be found here and the DIY advent calendar to go with it here.  I think it's so important to display the true meaning of Christmas in my home and think I will definitely need to incorporate some scripture or song lyrics like this in our Christmas decor.

To Wear: 

 I'm ordering these star trousers for my little one.  They're perfect and reasonably priced too.

To Decorate:  

I love this star garland hanging in front of the window.  The evergreen branch in the copper vase is just the right Christmassy touch. (image via)

To Crochet: 

 I really haven't crocheted much since I was a kid, but this star pattern might be a good reason to pick it up again.

To Add to the Collection:  

If you're like me, you may have a collection of pillows already, but who can resist a lovely little star pillow.  It would be so sweet in a nursery or child's room.

To Count Down:  

I'm so excited to be able to use my dowel tree and star advent calendar again this year.  The boys' just love decorating it over and over.
