I can’t believe it’s all over. The weeks of shopping for the perfect gift, planning food, scrolling Pinterest for days looking for this years table scape….over in less than 12 hours.

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas break and managed to unwind and take in some well earned down time. If you don’t celebrate Christmas, I hope you managed to fill your time with something that brings you happiness. I know this time of year is difficult for some, if you are someone who struggles, particularly at Christmas, I’m sending you the biggest hug. I can’t begin to imagine how tough this time of year can be and sincerely, I hope that everything is OK. 

A lot of people make a such a big deal about what they want for Christmas, make no mistake, receiving a gift is lovely but I much prefer to give gifts. I’m a pretty good listener throughout the year and tend to pick up on what someone may want but I’m also a sucker for a really meaningful gift, I’ll always make sure I’m scrolling the internet for a really unique something for that person to open, it’s such a wonderful feeling.

I wanted to close off Christmas by sharing a few things I was either given as a gift or purchased myself (and claimed it was for Christmas).
