Christmas is a hectic time of year. There are presents to buy, family gatherings to navigate, menus to plan and a home to organise. Urgh...I'm tired just thinking about it. Throw in the school holidays and its no wonder many of us us look forward to Christmas just so we can finally stop and be still for a moment. Double helpings of my mum's Christmas pudding certainly stops me in my tracks!
Christmas is fun but tiring. I'm on a mission to ensure that this year, my Christmas shopping doesn't feel like a chore. That I actually spend the time thoughtfully purchasing gifts. No more panic stricken flirtations with the shopping centre on Christmas Eve. I will shop in the comfort of my home perusing the beautiful homemade creations of my fellow bloggers. I will finally do away with the steely glaze and elbows out approach that only a hardened shopper gets with only 2 hours to go before the shops close.

those wrapped pressies look fantastic, love the colours. see i'm torn colour or neutrals? : )
Lovely idea!!! I finally stitched up stockings for the family last year!! I think the bag idea though, would be good for under the tree for holding pressies!!!
