It’s that time of year! Have you already bought your tree and decorated for the upcoming holiday? I am starting but have not finished. I plan to get our tree this week! If you are looking for ornaments, Old World Christmas has you covered! I love the variety they have! Here are my favorites this year:
My favorite is the Octopus Ornament! I learned all about them this past year and maybe the book Remarkably Bright Creatures had something to do with that. I loved the book! It is one of the first exhibits I head to when I go to the Aquarium of the Pacific. So, I was excited to receive this ornament!
The octopus is a shy animal and will change color when frightened. It is also the most intelligent of the invertebrates. The octopus has a good memory and uses it to make judgements based on experience. It is a quick learner and good problem solver.
The ornament is simply beautiful! You can find it here.
The next ornament is the Green Sea Turtle Ornament.
Having traveled the seas for over 100 million years, sea turtles have essentially remained unchanged. They survived beyond the extinction of the dinosaurs and are still present in the world’s oceans today. All sea turtles are on the endangered or threatened species lists. This is a must for any ocean lover! You can find it here.
Now, I am a big fan of yoga. I try to do yoga at least 2-3 times a week. (More when I can) So, I love the yoga mat ornament!
Yoga Mat Ornament
For centuries yoga has been practiced on grass, hard dirt, or tiger skins; it wasn’t until recently that yogis began to use specific mats. Today they prevent slipping in yoga studios. Mats also provide much deserved comfort during Shavasana (laying flat on your back) at the end of your Hatha practice.
You can find it here.
Have fun decorating!
