Christmas giveaway time!

Ok, I realise it's November but why leave all the Christmas fun till the last minute?

In this little basket (lined with one of my very favourite vintage fabrics!) includes something new, something vintage, something handmade and more....let's have a look...



This very pretty red rose corsage, not only for Christmas time but whenever a dash of vintage glamour is called for...

(we have had such a lack of natural light here, apologies for the poor colour. The rose is indeed red!)

A handmade Christmas bauble / decoration (simple patchwork style) covered in pretty scraps of fabric and with a red polka dot grosgrain ribbon hanger...


A set of vintage metal decorations in original packaging (a bit tarnished but fun to use for decorating packages and in crafts)

A little packet containing 2 handmade satchets of mulled wine spice. Even if you dont like mulled wine these smell gorgeous! They contain only natural ingrediants. You can simmer them to release the wonderful fragrance in your home...


An apple and cinnamon candle in a little red tin, what a glorious fragrance!


and lastly, a set of yellow Christmas lights. Christmas lights you say? Yes, but not just any...


...Last year Paul and I went to buy some lights and I saw this set of yellow lights and wondered what they might be like so I bought them. When I got home and set them up around our kitchen window (a rather dull area that needed something special!) I couldn't beleive how beautiful they were. Because they are yellow the light they give off is SO warm and cosy.

You know those gorgeous old Victorian Christmas paintings where the rooms look so luxurious and sumptuous with Christmas bounty? The light is always so inviting and draws you in? Well that, to me, is the kind of glow these lights have, quite like candle light.

Well this year I went back to the shop and there they were again so I thought it would be nice to include a set in the giveaway. I hope the winner will love them as much as I do.



The give-away is open to everyone, everywhere, however, if you are not in the UK, the Christmas lights will most likely not work in your country so we won't send them along. Maybe we can find a substitute item to send!
