just briefly popping in from my christmas hibernation to say a big thank you to stella for my wonderful advent swap gifts numbers of which, numbers13-25 you can see here. hope your all feeling as relaxed and content as i am. see you in the new year x

       13.cool notepad and a very pretty, flowery pen.

16. D.I.Y mini bunting and decorative kite kits-on-a-post card-these are so rad!
(pretty sure stella designed and sells these, along with some of my other beautiful gifts which proceeded and follow, so if your insanely jealous of me go to her blog shop and buy some)

18. an ikea pine scented christmas candle. 

15. a darling little vintage pepper pot, a vintage wooden toy train (claud has claimed this hence it's can't be found to photograph, but the plan was to hang it on the tree) and a packet of nostalgia-inducing mini retro french postcards.

17. adorable christmas card fridge magnet and beautiful gold washi tape 

19. circus stamp kit

25. exquisite a-z fridge magnets; excellently named award winning kiwi coffee, the tiniest buttons i ever saw in my life (i so have to find the tiniest jar in the world to make a button jar for my doll house craft room!), beautiful stickers, gorgeous fabric...an absolute delight to open on the big day!
