Hello all! Hope you had a great Christmas. I spent Christmas with my family and ate way way waaaaay too much… worth it! Before Christmas though my boyfriend and I decided to have a night away in Bristol as a Christmas present to each other. We did this last year and went to the Winchester Christmas market so I think we are making it a bit of a tradition. I really recommend giving a present in the form of a memory as I will always look back on these nights away with fondness.   First of all we had a look around the Bristol museum and art gallery. The building was beautiful and was lovely to have a quick look around. I particularly enjoyed the natural history and art section. I think a visit to an art gallery is in order soon! We then met up with my friend who lives in Bristol and he showed us around the harbour front and back to the Christmas market and shopping area. We then had a look around the shops and it was lovely to be in a city at Christmas time with the hustle a...

Happy Monday everyone! Only 2 weeks until Christmas! How crazy is that. Finished uni this week and just yeeeeeeesssssssss! As promised here are my homemade Christmas cards that I made my family and boyfriend this year! I have always really enjoyed crafting but have never really got into painting. My paintings have always previously looked like a 5 year old had done it but none the less I thought that I would give it a try as a nice thoughtful thing to do for my family over just buying cards.

Hello DECEMBER, Had such the chrismassy week this week! Think I have all my presents ready to go and wrapped up all pretty. I put up the tree at the weekend and took some pics to share with you guys because it’s just so pretty. My mum has been collecting decorations for years and I love the snowy icy theme. Also I love putting up the tree with my mum and we had a moment when we thought about how this probably will be my last Christmas living at home. Both exciting and a little sad. Think ill have to pop back next year and still set up the tree with her though. The boys in my house are no longer interested but I love getting it all just right… bit of a neat freak I knooooow. Loved listening to Christmas songs and singing along while we decorated. Really makes me start to feel Christmassy with the lights all warm in the evening. Started the chocolate calendar this week too!.. and went to maccas and tried their cookie latte! All the yummy things!      ...
