#BLOGMAS: A VERY MERRY LUSH EVENT

On Thursday I had the pleasure of being invited to an exclusive event at Lush in Sheffield to take a look around their shop and get a real personalised experience - which as anyone who has been into Lush knows, it is a little difficult to do this during the day!

I was ridiculously excited - I couldn't actually contain myself which was slightly embarrassing as I don't think I stopped smiling or talking for the whole 2 hours! - and when we arrived it was like walking into heaven! No exaggeration! We were fully pampered and went home with the best goody bag ever! 

#BLOGMAS: MY LITTLE GINGERBREAD MEN

On the 3rd day of Christmas...I decided to attempt to make gingerbread men!

I've never tried to make gingerbread before and I usually cheat and buy the ready made gingerbread houses but this year we bought a fairytale cottage mould from Lakeland and some gingerbread man cutters and stamps. As I wanted to make some for Christmas day for the kiddy winks in the family I thought I would do a test run - and its a good job I did too, gingerbread is hard!

#BLOGMAS: THE CHRISTMAS TAG

MERRY BLOGMAS EVERYONE!

Christmas is my favourite time of year - call me cliche but it always has been!

It's December 2nd and just to get us into the festive spirit I thought I would spread some Christmas cheer - in the shape of a fun little Christmas tag! 

#BLOGMAS: A GIFT GUIDE FOR MAKE UP BRUSHES

Let's face it. Every girl is a sucker for that soft stroke....of new make up brushes!

This is why we have so many! Also partly because it means we can get away with cleaning our brushes less often.

Last night, Kieran and I were mooching through gift guides together because although big presents are easy it's the little stocking fillers that he struggles with. I started reeling off brands and shades and his face started to go a little bit pale, so I tried to think of something stress free but still something that would be handy - and then it clicked, make up brushes!

ON THE FIRST DAY OF #BLOGMAS...

HELLO DECEMBER! We can now officially go Christmas crazy without anyone saying anything!

Unfortunately I can't participate in blogmas properly as with a full time job and a demanding boyfriend and puppy a post a day just doesn't seem realistic. Instead there will be a blogmas related post once/twice a week.

So on with today's post - Even though we put the tree up last Friday I thought I would make my first post of #BLOGMAS about my Christmas prep!
