For the previous solstice free-for-all I made a diorama of Buffy and Spike's bedroom in the comics. Then it was Summer, now it is winter -- so I decided to make a Christmas version. Here it is, with a Merry Christmas to all!




Right click images to view in full size.

Note: I know most people put their Christmas tree in the living room, not the bedroom, but my explanation for this is that Buffy and Spike saved a Christmas tree seller from vampires and to thank them, he gave them a Christmas tree for every room in the Scoobies' apartment.

And finally, a very short tour:



Making of: because it's winter, I thought Buffy and Spike needed warmer bedwear, so I put them in pajamas. The pajamas are fully detachable, like the clothes of a paper dress-up doll. Because I don't have access to a colour printer at home, I made the pajamas as well as the present of coloured paper, which I cut out and glued together in layers. It was a pretty fiddly task, but a nice way to spend the solstice.

Eeee, that's lovely! I think the cat is suspicious of the snowman in the box. :)

Thank you! Or maybe the cat is angry at the snowman, because it wants to sit in the box. At least it's not trying to climb the tree!

How creative! And fun. Spike and Buffy spending the holiday in bed - so appropriate!

Thanks! Plenty of people won't be going anywhere this Christmas, and if Buffy and Spike need to stay in, the bedroom is likely where they'll be :-)
