Christmas Want / Need / Wear / Read

Wednesday, December 10, 2014

OK, so I'm well and truly feeling festive! The wreaths are on the doors and a few decorations have found themselves being dotted about the house. The tree is arriving on Saturday, a prospect that I am ridiculously excited about, it takes me hours to decorate but when I'm done I spend more time gazing at it that I do the telly.

My food delivery has been booked for the 23rd and we've got our Christmas diary sorted. The only thing I haven't done is give any thought to what I'm going to wear but not matter what I'll be shopping my wardrobe and making sure my waistband is forgiving enough for a roast with all the trimmings.

I just need to buy Christmas cards, write, and post them... when's the last posting day?

I first saw this on Pinterest and decided to apply it to my Christmas wish list. I think it's meant for children, but hey what the heck!





Benefit Majorette. I first saw this on Really Ree and even tweeted that I'd keep an eye out and buy it when it hit the shelves. Months later I still haven't got one. But I still want one.



Bosch Sander. OK, so I doubt you'll see this pop up on many bloggers wish lists but I am so sick of sanding by hand. Bring. It. On.




Nike Rosherun Winter Black Trainers. There is just something so, so lovely about these. I'm slowly turning into a flat shoes kinda girl - what's happening to me!




Amy Poulter, Yes Please. I'm dying to read this (love her!) but as I have a huge dislike of hardback books (reading books not beautiful coffee table type books), I'm happy to wait until it comes out in paperback. Just no spoilers 'k?

What's on your Christmas wish list?

    I totally agree about spending more time staring at the Christmas tree than the TV - I definitely do that too!

      Especially at night, with the room lights off and the tree ones on :)

    I feel terrible as i'm not feeling festive at all this year. I do believe that it may have something to do with working in customer service and how feral people get this time of year. Enjoy your tree gazing X

      Oh yuck customer service at Christmas - I feel your pain. I worked in retail for six years, it's like shoppers morph into the devil at this time of year.

    I want to read that book! We haven't put our tree up yet as it's my daughter's birthday celebration this weekend, and a tree with 10 8-year old girls sounds like a recipe for disaster!! But soon!

      I'm hoping the paperback won't be too far away. A tree and 10 8yos is a definite no-no - hope you have a fun party though!
