New thing of the day, we put up a parol.
Parols are Filipino Christmas Star Lanterns - that we put up at Christmas. Most are pretty gaudy colored and have various twinkling combinations to them. There are a great variety of types and colors and they're mostly found in the Philippines.
I bought a simple pretty white parol a few years ago and brought it back to the US. We haven't used it since I brought it back because, well, no real room and we never had a place of our own to decorate. This year though, our own place, our own decor. We found the parol and put it up! Oh how exciting and wonderful. It's a great piece of home that I absolutely love and makes it feel all the more Christmassy!
Maligayang Pasko! It means Merry Christmas in Tagalog! :)
