Recent Purchases - Christmas Craft Special
This year, I’ve decided to get creative
and have a go at making some Christmas presents and decorations. Over the past
few weeks, I have been planning what I’m going to do and I’m starting to get
everything I need ready and organised. In the past, I’ve left things too late
and its hard to get exactly what I need.
One of the things I love to do at
Christmas is a nice bit of festive baking and this year I’m very excited to
decorate lots of biscuits to give to my friends and family as they make great
presents. I’ve bought a collection of Christmas cookie cutters from a fabulous
seller on Ebay who has cutters for almost any occasion. If any of you are
interested, their ebay shop can be seen here. The cutters all come beautifully
individually wrapped in cute tissue paper.

There are so many ways in which you can
package and wrap these biscuits which I will show you in future posts,
including using lovely Christmas ribbons and cellophane and old jars/tins and
boxes.
Ebay is the perfect place to buy lots
of cheap ribbons and twines, wooden decorations, paints, felts, buttons and
fabrics to make some lovely handmade gifts and decorations so I fully recommend
taking a look and getting lots of inspiration!
Here is a little sneaky peak of some of
what I have bought over the past few weeks. I will be bringing you a series of
Handmade Christmas posts to hopefully inspire you to get creative this festive
season!

I Love...Christmas Jumpers
Now that Christmas songs are playing at work, I'm starting to feel very Christmassy and one of my favourite things about Christmas are Christmas jumpers! I would wear them all year round if I could. Here are my favourite current offerings from the high street! My favourite is definitely the cream holly number from Topshop.

My Favourite Autumn Nail Colours
Navy – All through autumn and winter last
year, I wore navy on my nails, and I’m loving it this year too. Its softer than
black nails but still perfect for parties, and also looks great with a glitter
top coat. My current personal favourite is No7 Stay Perfect in Betty Blues, which I
bought last year.

1. No7 Stay Perfect Nail Colour in
Betty Blues - £5.50 2. Models Own In The Navy - £5 3. 17 Lasting Fix in Midnight Sapphire - £2.99 |
Berry reds - Nothing beats a classic red nail,
and dark berry reds definitely give this go-to colour an autumnal twist. My
current favourite is Rimmel Rapid Ruby but there are so many gorgeous varnishes in this
shade!

1. Rimmel Rapid Ruby - £2.99
2. Models Own Red Red Wine - £5
No7 Stay Perfect Damson Dream - £5.50 |
Dark green – I’ve only just
tried dark green nails, but this colour is THE perfect autumn colour, I can’t
seem to get enough of it! My only nail varnish in this colour is Racing Green
by Barry M (£2.99, Boots) but I have recently spotted Emerald Black Beetlejuice
by Models Own (£5, Boots) which has a beautiful shimmery effect so this is
definitely going to go on my wishlist.
