Christmas decorations that don't cost the earth

Christmas decorations don't have to cost as BBC Radio Lincolnshire's Sue Taylor found out when she visited Doddington Hall near Lincoln.

Sue went there to meet Rachel Petheram. She helps to decorate the Elizabethan Mansion Doddington Hall at Christmas with plants and foliage collected from the woods and grounds of the hall.

Sue went to the woods to find out what kind of things Rachel uses. They are things you will find in your garden too.
