And we are back with my promised Christmas post. I won’t lie, in hindsight, I really should have posted this first instead of my empties. But we can’t change that now. If you want to see what I got for Christmas from my friends and family, just keep reading!
My first present rocked up before the big day and it was from my lovely Cheddar of a friend, Tash. She sent me some of the pieces from her jewelry line (you can find her here). And she also sent me a card that basically left me sobbing at work. I love her more than words can say!
Next up, Secret Santa! My Secret Santa was my Brother in Law, James. And he got me a few fun goodies. Firstly, he knows I’m a lover of coffee and Looney Tunes, so he gifted me a sweet Daffy Duck mug and a Tweety Bird notebook.
He also gifted me this adorable cat wax melter (and a few wax melts, of course). I have never used a wax burner before (I’m a candle person), but they smell so amazing! I can’t wait to use this.
Next up, the Parentals. Again with the theme of smelly things, I got this great candle that they found at the markets (they know that I love hand poured candles in unique scents). They also gave me these super cute Baby Yoda earrings. Finally, they gifted me a Reindeer serving platter, but I put that away with the rest of the Christmas stuff on Boxing Day.
As always, my younger sister sent me a new coffee mug. I won’t lie, when I saw it, I immediately burst out laughing, I loved it that much! She also gifted me a very cute cat pin, that kinda looks like a fluffier version of my Parker Cat.
Finally, we have the hubby. If you’ve been following me for a while, you will know that he’s much more fond of giving me lots of smaller gifts as opposed to one large gift. So I won’t feature everything he gifted me. But one of the things I loved was this Witches Broth dish that comes with a little ceramic spoon! It’s so cute and I will find a way to drink coffee out of it.
He also gifted me this lightbox. It initially had I Love You written on it (he’s such a sweetie). But I changed it to something a little more on brand.
This however might be my favourite gift of all. Dennis knows that I’m a huge fan of the TV series The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance (if you haven’t seen it, it’s on Netflix and it’s AMAZING). And I was gutted when it got cancelled after one season a few months back. So he got me a necklace with a replica of the shard from the Dark Crystal. This was so unbelievably thoughtful and I will treasure it always.
And that is everything I got for Christmas in 2020! I am forever grateful to my friends and family for all of these amazing gifts. What were some of you favourite presents from Christmas? Let me know below!
Cheers and love
