Saying Goodbye to the Season.........


It is interesting that certain colors have been attached to feelings about holidays. The black and orange of Halloween and the oranges and browns for Thanksgiving.  The complementary  colors of red and green always signifies Christmas.

The stencil decoration of holly with red berries and red bow is a classic symbol for the season.  As we put away our Christmas things and prepare for the rest of the long cold winter we go back to our everyday colors.  The spark of color from blooming green plants is the only balance we can have before spring finally arrives.

It's always hard to put away Christmas. The house looks very drab until Spring.
Wishing you a nice week.

I'm one of those people who can't wait to clear up after Christmas... and then I bewail the emptiness of the place and the lack of colour.
