back from ikea, in front of the fire, glass of wine in hand, thinking all things festive...
i love love love the planning...the lead up...the list making before Christmas...
but {this year}, as you know, i am leaving most of the *doing* to others...
not that i can't enjoy a few Christmas goodies that will be easily
don't know how you gals work...let me know...i love christmas banter!
i start with a colour theme that revolves around white & silver...& usually add my fave colour
blue...
but this year i have had a yearning for just a good whallop of red...red...& more red...
i think for me, red represents everything i love about england...
it's a heart warming, snuggly, cosy up kinda colour...to me it's england in winter...
so i've chosen my colour for this year- our last in england...
i've been to ikea with the B.B {British Bestie} today & topped up on red & white...
& i've bought
organised & ready to
if you have an ikea in
i'm home to late to show you all my goodies today- i had a fire to light & a chook to fill full of garlic
& to shove in the oven...
i'll leave the show & tell till monday...
but suffice to say- the christmas shop is finished off with a last dash at the food store, which now
carries very very very cool bottles of mulled wine...
will let you know how this goes down too- if nothing else the bottle make for gorgeous decoration...
so that's it from me
in all things ribbon
&
red & white
~~~
see ya monday for some christmas decor inspiration!
...happy weekend gals...
