Etsy Holiday Gift Guide #3 My wish list


Over the last 2 weeks I have been sharing my favourite Etsy Christmas picks and so far I have posted about Christmas cards and stocking fillers and today's post is about the pieces that have made it to my Christmas list.


My christmas list


I have been learning to crochet for a few months but I just cannot get into the swing of it and I am desperate for a crochet blanket for this winter.

Jillian Holtzmann is my new girl crush - she inspires everyone to embrace their weirdness !!I think  Capybara are very cute and these cushions would just make me smile every time I saw them on my sofa.

The wall hooks and faux taxidermy are small parts of a huge wall display I want to make out of my jewellery and accessories. I also have purchased from both sellers in the past so can attest to the fab value and quality.

This jewellery set from Atuko is just gorgeous - all of their jewellery is modern and fresh and minimalist and just what I need to add to my collection for those days I'm feeling a bit more understated.

You can never have too many pins or Llamas in your accessory collection.

I can never keep my nails looking nice so a fab set of falsies, especially ones as amazing as these, would be very well used and loved.

Continuing the marble theme, these earrings are just beautiful and look so much more than the very affordable price tag.

Embroidery is everywhere at the moment and this clutch is gorgeous and classic and understated and all those other adjectives that describe beautiful accessories.

Christmas isn't Christmas if copious amounts of chocolate are consumed and what better way to do that than with a whole selection of flavoured white chocolate goodies (you can't beat white choc).

I have chosen these earrings from Martha Rotten to feature but in reality, any single item from that shop could have made it to my wish list - everything appeals to the darker side of my aesthetic.

If you couldn't already tell, my taste in jewellery is very eclectic and I like to own something to suit every mood and occasion and at the moment I have a hankering for bamboo bracelets to stack with bakelite bangles.

As well as being practical, this makeup bag just makes me grin. I love Harry Potter and everything associated with it and the older I get the more enjoyment I get out of people's surprise at this fact.

So there is my Christmas list, do let me know what's on yours and feel free to leave links to your blog posts.

Finally, if you are interested in seeing someone else's idea of the ideal Christmas present check out the Etsy Editors' Pick's page.

Etsy : The perfect place for a unique Advent Calendar

Over the past few years, I have shared with you my favourite unique Christmas cards, stocking fillers and tree decorations, all available from Etsy This year I want to share my favourite advent calendars. Maybe like me, your children are growing up and so they will appreciate a unique advent calendar for the treat it is, or maybe you would like the joy your family members get from opening their gifts to extend beyond the one day, or perhaps (also like me)  you just want to treat yourself a little bit. The possibilities with Etsy really are endless, and there are many more options than those that I am sharing, so I would highly encourage everyone to grab a cup of their favourite hot beverage and spend a fun 30 minutes persuing these sellers, and many more besides that. For the foodies, I have a list of food-based calendars  that contain items such as pork scratching and cheddar cheese, alongside those containing the more traditional chocolate options.  Cheesies Advent Calendar £32.50

Get That Glow // Highlighters with a twist

Gone are the days that highlighting was left to the professional makeup artists on magazine shoots. Now highlighting is a day to day occurrence for most of us I love that the trend has evolved enough to provide those of us who don't want a gold champagne shimmer. Some of us are aiming for extraterrestrial realness (maybe that's just me) so the colours now available are perfect and when they come in a palette as beautiful as the  Blacklight Highlight - 6 Color Palette from BH Cosmetics (and for only $16.99 !!!) you really can't go wrong. Whilst I try and sort the area in my room for shooting beauty pictures I thought I would share just a few of the items on my highlight wishlist. Are there any highlighters on your wishlist at the moment? Tessa 

Products I have shared lately

I have been making more of an effort to share on social media but with that, the blog has fallen away. I am going to try and find some sort of middle ground so I thought I would start with things I have been talking about elsewhere on social media lately. To start with we have my new favourite book (albeit that it is for children). Mary and Frankenstein - Both the story and the illustrations and enthralling    And this is another gorgeous children's book that I got for the illustrations, though more specifically the colour palette. I think the pop of neon with neutral colours is something I want to experiment with.   what is your favorite illustrated children's book? Finally - my product of choice at the moment is Turner gouache though I am going to treat myself to some of these Shin Han hybrid paints this month to try them out I have set up an Amazon store with some of my favorites so it is easy for you to find everything I love in one place.   https://www.amazo
