Hi lovelies, or should I say Merry Christmas?! This year I'm attempting to take part in Blogmas for the very first time but my own amended version which I'm calling "The 12 Days of Blogmas" - one post every other day (12 in total) in the run up to Christmas!
To kick things off, my first Blogmas post is my Christmas bucket list which features all the activities I want to do in December to get into the Christmas spirit!

My Christmas bucket list:
Watch Love Actually at least once
Wear something festive every day leading up to Christmas

Have a Christmas movie night with lots of festive snacks!
Decorate a gingerbread house (I've never done one before!)
Burn Christmas candles at every opportunity
Go on a long Wintery walk with the dogs
Donate something
Spend an evening curled up with a good book, hot chocolate and fairy lights
Make a Christmas playlist and listen to it everyday

There we go! I'll be updating my progress on Twitter so you can see how I'm coming along with these.
P.S. The fabulous Nightmare Before Christmas-inspired print in my header picture is from the lovely itslizi on Etsy and will be available when her shop re-opens on 10th December!

This is a great list! I really want to do a gingerbread house this year too as some of the shops have finaaaallllly brought out gluten free kits this year!
ReplyDeleteI'm also doing 12 Days of Blogmas, but I will be doing the 12 days before Christmas straight. Yay festive posts!

Thank you lovely! And aaah that's great they're doing gluten free ones as well! And that's a great idea to do the 12 posts right before Christmas, much more planning time! I may have to take a leaf out of your book for next year! xx
DeleteCan't get over the fact you made it to 25 without doing a gingerbread house!
ReplyDeleteGreat post sweetpea!
Haha, I'm not really sure how I managed it this long without doing one?! Ooops! Thank you lovely <3
DeleteLove this post! I always say I want to make a gingerbread house but never get round to it - this year will be the year for us haha :) xx
ReplyDeleteHaha aaah glad I'm not the only one!! <3 xx
DeleteThis is such a brilliant list, I want to go to the boxing day sales but I think I will do it from the comfort of my own bed :) xx

A very good idea, haha! We're lucky our local shopping centre doesn't really get that busy else I think I'd definitely do the same! And thanks lovely! xx
DeleteIt's my first time too, good luck! :)
