On the second week of Christmas... giveaway - Closed!

I am feeling so Christmasy now and its only 18 days until Christmas
Hurray!

To continue the festive celebrations here is my second christmas
giveaway from Belen's Boutique!

I started reading Belen's amazing blog when she joined my photoswap but it wasn't until a little while later that I realised that she had a shop... and wow, what a shop!

I must confess that I am completely in love with the crocheted flower headbands and the only reason that I haven't brought any is because I can't decide which colour I love the most... and her jewellery is so so pretty and perfect for a christmas gift!

So... you could win:

Not one but two of the crocheted flower headbands

Giveaway is now closed!
How to enter: Take a look around Belen's beautiful Boutique and leave a comment with your favourite item.

I hope you all love Belen's shop as much as I do and

thank for to everyone who entered!

Things I've learnt from blogs this week...

First thank you to everyone who's left a lovely comment on my last post - I thought about not posting it but I'm glad I did.

Secondly, we have a winner of the first christmas giveaway, yeay!!
The winner is Cassie!!
Well done Cassie! I'll send you an email! Check back on Monday for another great giveaway, I'm very excited :)

Here are some lovely links from this week - I'm trying not to make them all christmas ones but there are so many great posts about christmas around!

1. I love these moustaches!
2. I want to make these for christmas.
3. I love London at Christmas...
4. A tree of macaroons, yeay.
5. I want to make a list that looks like this
   (probably with the same things on it!)

I'm so glad its the weekend, I've been waiting forever for this one - all of the girls from Uni are coming for a christmas reunion, yeay! It should be really fun and I can't wait to see people!

I hope everyone has a great weeknd!

Sometimes...

...I set myself up for disappointment...

...I get resentful about the silliest little things and can't shake it off
even though I know its so silly...

...I feel like crying all day but I just can't...

...I get completely overwhelmed and panic...

...I wish I could stay in bed all day...

...I miss people so much it hurts...

...I am so cold my toes ache...

and sometimes

...I have a chocolate brownie for breakfast...

...which makes everything better...

(hehe I realise that the picture above by the talented Chromatophobe is not a chocolate brownie and I should be upset that there is cream on top of such a pretty camera but it really made me laugh when I needed to - so hopefully this will make you laugh too!)

Blog loving!

I don't think I will ever get bored of blog love - it really is an amazing thing!

My first love today is Nicole and Hannah's new shop, with love!

Its so unbelievably pretty and you can buy some Rhianne's!!

I'm in love, how perfect are they? Yeay!

My second (never ending love) is for Diana from Our City Lights shop!

I honestly couldn't believe how many lovely things that she sent me, it felt like Christmas was early when I received my package in the post!

and how cute are the ribbons and envelope?

Diana is currently having a sale - so have a look around!
I'm almost tempted to buy more things myself :)

And finally a huge thank you to Amy for her beautiful christmas tree photo that I got in the post yesterday - it totally made my day after a particularly rubbish day at work!

I think it looks perfect on the mantle next to our christmasy candle!
(and the green on the right is a toy of Broby from Yo Gabba Gabba - we're obsessed!!)

p.s. Don't forget about my giveaway as well - it ends tomorrow!!
