Things I Love about Christmas Time



I love going to the Winter Wonderland in Swansea, although I didn't manage to go ice skating this time (my friends are scared) I'll drag the boy in the new year to go with me :D

I love this new polaroid converter thingie on my laptop, but I lost the link, if I find it I'll link to it. I miss my old polaroid camera and photos just look better in that style!

The fact that it's cold enough to wear all my favourite winter hats, scarves and gloves, but not as freezing as it has been over the past few years. Some snow would be nice but I'd be a bit scared driving in it for the first time on my own!

Novelety Christmas cups! I have one from Sainsburys which is in the shape of a Christmas Pudding. I don't like Christmas Pudding but I love that cup!

Getting time and a half for working on Boxing day, it made up for the fact that I had to work four days straight after Christmas.

My presents! Wow did I get spoiled, my boyfriend got me the giant Soap and Glory boxset, Secret Wish Perfume, personalised lego with pictures of our story and so on, I love him so much! I got him loads too though! My mum got me lots of cute little things, mostly things I'd asked her for, but she also got me a jewellery making kit and things for my car which I didn't know about, and my brothers got me some films and pretty ornaments, and my friends pretty necklaces and bath things, which I love, I'm on a bath goodie high!

I also loved how everyone loved my presents! and the stockings I half made, and the bracelets that I had made, it made me feel like it was worth all the time yay!

Chocolate! I have a bag full! This will last me a long time!

Oh I have more to add but now I have to dash off to work! Still I get New Years Eve and Day off! I don't have anything special planned just know that I'll be with my boyfriend and I need to start working on those resolutions!

A Christmassy Evening



I've had quite the Christmassy Evening as my title would suggest, doing Christmas things whilst watching a Christmas film, Love Actually. I actually love that film! Ha...ha, I'm so funny I know.... anyways! The above picture shows one of my favourite story lines from the film, its so sad, and sweet, but there are a fair few sad and sweet storylines in this film.


I've wrapped up my family's presents, photos to come another time, and written my work Christmas cards (Just under 40 of them!). I like writing cards, and I bought some cheapyish ones from Primark, but they are cute! I've also listed them in alphabetical order, hmm do I need help? For my family, boyfriend and close friends I'll be doing hand made cards which I've yet to do. I also need to wrap my friends presents, and my boyfriends, I have a different way of wrapping all set up for them! Just need a few bits and pieces, but I'm done with the big Christmas shopping. Oh yeah, I need to make gift tags, well I don't need to, but I saw an idea which I think is super cute. I also need to try my hand at a few handmade things, like dolls, bracelets, cookies and photoframes especially. Oh that reminds me! I need to print off some photos eeek, I have quite a list and its two weeks away! But I love Christmas!

P.s This is my 50th post! The most I've ever posted on a blog, I usually give up!
