I'd like:

A hairbrush

Hard wearing socks that don't give me any sensory issues

Some champagne truffles maybe

What's on yours?

Emerald earrings to match a necklace I have. That won’t be arriving this year.

A leather purse to match a bag that DH has bought me.
Champagne truffles or rose and violet chocolates.
Embroidered hankies from a local shop.
A good red wine.
Cashmere sweater

I have real urges for a quilted Cameron bag style handbag
Late to the party but a one hundred stars Venice map gown
I need new slippers I think
Silent pool gin and some of the beautiful glasses
Charlotte tilbury or hourglass makeup

DH will get me some lovely stuff, I might point him to the gin and my mother in law will give me money so I’ll probably get the gown with that. I wouldn’t ask DH for makeup it would fluster him. Haven’t seen the exact bag I want yet.

I can’t decide if I’m easy to buy for or a nightmare. I’d be happy with nice toiletries tbh 😁

Oh and I’ve asked dd2 to get me a big cappuccino/soup mug, looks like I’m working from home forever so that will be good for lunches .

A velvet lounge wear seat that is breastfeeding friend from Juno Jacks 🥰
A step counting watch
Benefit they're real mascara

But what I really want is to see my healthy baby in the growth scan I have booked for the 29th of Dec, to move into the new house we are in the process of buying and to give DD all the attention as it will be her last Xmas as an only child!

Wool (I crochet), excellent watercolours, storage for stamps and dies, anymore new craft supplies that I find.
I also like pre-war girls’ school stories!

Spacerader · 11/11/2021 23:08

A Kurt keiger bag I have seen I need in my life.

Dermalogica cleanser (I have just had some for my birthday, but always ask for it on my Christmas list as well because whilst I love it, I also don't love paying £30ish quid for a face cleanser)

A new Charlotte tilbury lipstick

A new coat

Some plain studs

Hundreds of bath bombs

An over bath shelf/tray

Some nice cheap perfume. I have lots of nice expensive ones but like a decent cheaper o e as every day work perfume. (When I say cheap I don't mean pound land cheap of Avon crap, something around the £20/£30 mark... I love sweet scents so if anyone has recommendations please send them my way)

Nice smelling candles

Blonde chocolate

Maybe a new pair of dr martins.

And if I had to choose some stocking filler gifts...

Plenty of those mini hair claws (the £1 for a pack 8 ones at primark, I always loose them of forget I have them in when I lay down so snap them so like a stock pile)

Some of my everyday no7 moisturising foundation (7£)

A top up of my maybeline sky high mascara

Clear Lipgloss/lip oil

An eyebrow razor/trimmer

Cerva intense face moisturiser for dry to very dry skin.

@Twizique I love Stacy Halls! I just finished the Familiars, my first venture into her work and immediately ordered the Foundling and have asked for Mrs England for Christmas. I've never found someone else who reads her, so excuse my excitement haha.

@Twizique

Perfume by Ellie Saab, Slippers The Foundling by Stacy Halls The Betrayals by Bridget Collins (I think)

RainbowMum11 · 12/11/2021 01:13

I would like some nice scented candles (but not expensive ones), a thoughtful Pandora charm, a nice blanket for winter.

DeadButDelicious · 12/11/2021 01:49

The only thing I wanted, an addi king size knitting machine, my dad has actually bought me so I'm feeling very blessed this Christmas already. I don't need/want anything else really, I wouldn't mind a pair of gumbie slipper boots I suppose. That would be nice.

I'd like some essential oils and something for our new greenhouse which comes in a few
Months!

I'm hoping some lovely piece of jewellery or a painting that I love comes up at an auction in a couple of weeks. Otherwise, I'd just like our community choir to start meeting again

  • A print of Whistler's Nocturne in Black and Gold
  • Lush bathbombs
  • A sewing machine
  • A new tan cross-body handbag

A bag for my swimming gear - possibly the sweaty Betty luxe one

A lighted mirror I can hang in my changing room to avoid doing my makeup at the swimming pool changing room mirror
