Sneak Peeks



December 6, 2013

Last night was full of Christmas cheer in our house. We (I) decided we were going to get our Christmas tree. After the gym we stopped off at B&Q to nab a tree, but their tree section outside was closed “due to the high winds and hazards this was causing”. I was ticked. I wanted a tree.

We ended up just picking up a pack of small white LED lights (as our white lights from last year died) and a few new ornaments. On a whim we stopped off at The Range, a do it all store near our house. They not only had quite a few trees, but they were stuck in water baths to keep them hydrated and we found a perfect one for £20. This is considerably less than what we had to fork over last year, and I had said if we couldn’t find a cheapish one, we should just get a fake one. So it was our night after all! The white tree above is a small two foot one I picked up at Paperchase last night to put in my office. I wanted a little festive cheer to get me through the day, and I’ve always wanted a white tree, but didn’t want a giant one, that’s too much commitment, and too much white for me. More pics to come when we get more decorations up!

On to the giveaway winner, thank you to all who left comments, and have and continue to leave such nice comments on my posts. They really make my day.

Adam has chosen a random number and the winner is Mandy Southgate! I’ll be in touch shortly.
Thanks again everyone, and hopefully I can have another giveaway soon because I wish I could give you ALL a present.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.
