What’s on your Christmas wishlist?

I’d love:

Oodie weighted blanket.
A necklace and earrings set from D Louise.
A pair of earrings from Astrid and Miyu.
Stackers jewellery box layer.
Haus Labs blush.
ELF niacinamide Power Grip Primer.

(I will not receive all of these btw).

I have very simple tastes. A pair of slippers from Primark, a random 99p kindle book of the giver's choice, maybe a bag of M&S Italian chocolates. That's it really.

Body Shop Vitamin E moisturiser
a few interesting books I saw on a Mumsnet reading thread
some scent - not sure what yet, they discontinued Kahaia
all the chocolate - ooh, the Bara Brith one from that little Welsh company was really nice, also white or black Toblerones; unsalted caramels
fudge, tablet, honeycomb; licquorice, jellies and wine gums
a new bag
sonic jewellery cleaner (eventually I'm going to give in and buy the damn thing myself, but not in late September)
book of takegaki
jigsaw

Anything from www.goodgifts.org or www.chooselove.org and nothing else. I hate presents.

A happy festive day.

A winning lottery ticket.

Oddly, I have the desire for some velour sweats (I can't say "loungewear", it's a weird combo of twee and wanky). I can't decide if they'll look raggedy really quickly and lose their shape or if they'll be fine for lazy days. Velour is also mostly polyester and the like and I try to wear predominantly natural fabrics when I can.

Other than that, some money towards travel, donations to charities I like or books I've taken note of the last few months.

Some really nice makeup brushes.

Spectrum are a fantastic brand for make-up brushes. I’ve had the same set for years and they’re like new ☺️

My son with SEN living back at home rather than in an institution after being written off by professionals in social care because they can’t see the wonderful person he is and the achievements he could make given the right support.

For the Bodyshop to bring back passionfruit face wash.
To get the milia in my eyelid crease removed.
For my DH to be fully recovered from a snapped elbow and for the cancer scare to be just that, a scare.

Extra: to have lost another stone.
