Paper Tissue Snowflake Christmas Decorations
*swoons* Aren’t they unspeakably beautiful? You can buy the snowflakes and bells all individually (we found them in Earl & Pearl’s NOTHS shop), but if you head straight over to their website, they have them in bargainous bundles. Two medium and two large snowflakes can be had for £15 – that’s a £4 saving on the individual prices. And why on earth would you stop at one when you could have a whole array of...

Felt Advent Christmas Tree With Bauble Pockets – Pre-Christmas Shopping
This one is so sweet and cheerful it totally deserved a mention – and I love that it’s so flexible too. It’s just a big felt Christmas tree, and every bauble is a pocket for your chosen treat – and each one is buttoned on.

Never mind the before-breakfast chocs – all the excitement is in watching the doors gradually open up, revealing a new picture each day, and...
Advent Calendar by Yankee Candle! Pre-Christmas Shopping
Love it, love it, love it! One for the busy Mums, for sure – how d’you fancy a beeyootiful new scented tealight candle every day in the mad rush up to Christmas? Personally, I’d break the advent calendar rules and open mine every evening, post-bedtime, and take 10 minutes to sit back with a mug (or a glass…) and bre-e-e-athe deeply. Every day reveals a tealight candle in one of six seasonal scents, including an...
Spotted! DIY Advent Calendar – make this beautiful idea yourself!
I do love a pretty advent calendar – but how about making your own? I admit – I’ve considered it in the past, but to be honest my sewing just isn’t up to scratch for such a fiddly project. But this? When I stumbled across it on Nostalgiecat’s blog, I thought “THIS I can do.” And it’s SO lovely. Not only is it easy to make – can you just imagine the excitement of seeing 24 little...
