Getting Ready for Christmas Early: 13 Weeks to Go

For some reason I thought this was published, oops. So here’s my late 13 weeks to go post.

I’d said how part of my ‘to do’ list was decorating, and this week I’ve been laying the kitchen floor in the will be kitchen. I’m just about to finish it in preparation for the chimney to be swept next week. This has meant that some of the prettier list items haven’t been done. So here goes…

I’ve received delivery of the sparkling wine that I bought for the neighbours. I don’t gift bag them, just put pretty ribbons on and out they go.

I’ve also received delivery of the rare book I’d bought for mum.

I’ve finished my cards with wax seals. They’re ready to go on 1st December.

I’ve been looking up some gift wrap ideas – I want a brown paper theme for the gifts from Father Christmas.

I’ve bought ribbon to go in line with the above.

That’s it for this week. But here’s some of the ideas I came up with for the gift wrap.
