Christmas Gifts

Now, I hope this blog doesn't come across as bragging but simply I hope you all take it as sharing, from one friend to another. I wanted to share with you guys some of the things that I got for Christmas from my family. I love all my gifts but decided to share with you a couple of select things. What did you get? Do you like or hate what I got? Let me know in the comments after you've read the blog!

1. Wall decoration.

At the moment, I am always on the look out for different decorations for my bedroom and so when I opened this present from my sister, I couldn't believe how well she had known me to get me something I love. For some people, it's not their taste but I absolutely love it. I like all decorations that are a little vintage and quirky making it different rather than just a simple poster or generic picture. I just need to find the time to put it up on my wall and add in all my other little quirky pieces that I have found along the way. Once I have sufficiently decorated my room, perhaps I'll do a blog showing you around. 

2. Heart cushion.

As with the other Christmas gift that I got, this is perfect for me wanting to decorate my room and it will go fabulous with the green walls that I have. I think that if I actually put some time and effort into sufficiently decorating my room, it will look half decent. I have never really had my own space to decorate in terms of being completely free to do what I want with it and so I am having so much fun with decorating my room.

3. Jelly Beans.

I love jelly beans, they are my favourites and this year I got two types of jelly beans, the generic ones and then some cool Harry Potter ones. Yesterday, I had so much fun giving people in my family the option to pick a jelly bean to eat from the box. I had managed to pick out earwax and soap which were not very appealing but thankfully, it was Dad that got the dirt one. I almost wet myself laughing so much as he bit into it only to quickly take it out of his mouth- some weird curiosity of mine wanted to know what it tastes like and then my sensible brain says that I don't want to know!

4. Perfume.

I'm not really a good person to pick out perfume for myself because I simply don't know what smells good and so I generally leave perfume as gifts for Christmas and this year I got this deletable one. I love how it smells and know that it isn't a going out to the shops kind of perfume but a fancy dancy one where you wear it on special occasions. I love it. But I do need help so if you know of any good day to day perfumes that I should buy, let me know!

5. Dresses.

I have been trying to find dresses that will be able to be used for both teaching and everyday use and Christmas treated me well in this sense. I got 3 lovely new dresses that are simply beautiful on and off. I think they can be interchageable for both occasions. Years ago, I hated dresses simply because I hated the way I look but more and more now I am choosing to wear a dress than I am anything else. I love them!

What lovely things did you get for Chrismtas? Share them with me below.

I wanted to quickly wish my eldest sister, Justine, a massive happy 26th birthday and hope that she has a brilliant day.
