Our Christmas day was magic.
Our tiny cottage effortlessly welcomed the revelry.
She stood proud
She looked beautiful

She felt different...She was glowing.
 My family noticed the change also, it was something more than just Christmas magic.

I think she felt loved!

After all this time I think I may actually be falling in love, asbestos and all...Sshhh! 

Someone else's magical Christmas hallway. 
I love the black touches, Im not sure I could do black door frames personally but the black decorations and fairy lights are perfect.

I hope yours was wonderful too.

Im ready for that big old house now!

Any time now!
No seriously universe, now is good.
And why now?
As you know Im responsible for Christmas this year.
It started quietly enough, about 10~15 people max, easy to handle...
Suddenly It has grown.
To 30 people...
It has doubled and I have to confess to feeling a little more like Im running a soup kitchen for the day than preparing a gorgeous Christmas feast as in Im now franticly looking for cheaper ways to feed large numbers, Ive even considered pasta... What tha... on Christmas day?


Don't get me wrong I am looking forward to it, it will be chaotic but fun. 
Uncharacteristically I have delegated like never before (that has never been a strong point of mine Yep bit of a control freak here) but as I don't want to be a panicked crazed and exhausted mess on the day Ive decided to learn the art of delegation.
Im very proud of my efforts too as Ive managed to leave myself with NONE of the big jobs.
My only dilemma now is space.
Im not sure how well my teeny tiny house will cope with the onslaught.
Im doing the best make over I can (Ill post pics after the day)

This house would really come in handy though.




I may not be around much this week as Im busy busy (who isn't yes).
Just in case I don't get around to catching up with you all
I want to wish you all a wonderful Christmas and a fantastic new year.
Thank you all for a fantastic first year of blogging.

Love and hugs.

All I want for Christmas

I only just found out about this!
Naturally I skipped straight over to the Book depository to order it...
GASP...

It over $200... 
And that's literally HALF the price it retails for here, in fact its $440 at one retailer.

So... Santa... Whatcha think? Room for it in my stocking?



I am certain it is worth every cent!

Unfortunately It will have to linger in my wish list just a little longer.

Until next week maybe...Ahem...

So many thanks to Anna from doorsixteen
for making me aware of its existence.
I wont do it justice so you're best to read about it here

If you want to buy it for me you can get it Here .

Candy coloured Christmas

Isn't this is such a fun room.
Possibly a little too much candy for me but the kids love it.
