Summary: Time to decorate Grimmauld Place for the holidays!
Status: Complete
Christmas was always a time for people to decorate their homes in the holiday spirit, with pine and holly and lots of gold and silver and glitter. Remus thought this was all fine and well, so long as it didn't go overboard, and so long it was done in the right spirit. He, admittedly, was not in the best of spirits, especially after having had visited his parents' graves three days earlier, but Sirius was determined. He had had Kreacher begin making mass amounts of sweets in preparation for the season - Remus was rather glad neither of them were diabetics, though he wondered if one of them wouldn't be by the end of the month - gotten a tree from goodness knows where, and had brought down every box of decorations he could find from the attic.
Every box. There were tons.
"Sirius," he coughed, the dust getting to him as he stared at what used to be the sitting room, "I think I just counted 46 boxes of Christmas items. And if memory serves me correctly, there are boxes within boxes. How did a family full of males accumulate so much...stuff?"
