What’s on YOUR Christmas List?

[SamantherJay]

I always appreciate every gift I receive from others but also love to see what’s on peoples lists for inspo!

I usually get a pair of cyberjammies pjs on Christmas Eve and currently trying to persuade DH to book a couple of nights away as a joint Christmas present.

Elemis marine cream, I’ve almost run out.
L’occitane lavender bath foam
No other ideas at the moment
There’s also a cook book I want

An air fryer…. No one spends that kind of money on me so I’m going to persuade my parents and siblings to give me vouchers for Argos or somewhere.

New perfume, running very low.

In the market for a nice new belt but not had a look what specifically I want yet.

MIL always gives a little gift bag with things like socks, a new diary or notebook, some hand cream etc in and I’m a big fan.

A weighted blanket.
Some new earrings - nothing fancy, just day to day ones.

That's it so far 😬

I've made a wishlist...

Handmade soap - with a ban on all other smellies as I'm still working through stuff I got 5 years ago and didn't like then

Abyss by Max Hastings about the Cuban Missile Crisis

Left Bank by Agnes Poirier about Paris mid-20th century

Bridgedale walking socks, the top end 25 quid ones

Milk frother

Would like:
short/vest pjs
running socks
walking boots
luxe shower products
gym wear
cream Le Pliage bag

An eternity ring from dh
VB mascara and eyeliners
Rhubarb gin

A cape
Victoria Beckham eyeliner
Gloves from Dents
Ember mug
Hiking boots
Ancient Greek and Roman classics
Skydiving gear
Waterman Hemisphere pen
Kalimba

Pom-pom London small bag in a darker colour for winter.
Yarn and accessories for crafting.
Some trainers - I like Nike Air Max.
A load of books that I have on an Amazon wish list so people can choose.
A hand cream set, I get one every year and love it.
Perfume, ideally. Running out by Xmas.
A 2024 diary - Boxclever Press are lovely, with dotted pages opposite the dates. I love a list and this works brilliantly for me.
I will almost certainly end up buying it all myself as my family will claim to not know what specific thing to get, despite me spelling it out.

I need a new wallet as mine is falling apart, new mugs as it’s always my cute ones that get broken and some pyjamas. I still want a pair of 100% cashmere socks, I got close with a 30% cashmere wool blend last year.

Books and a couple of nights away somewhere nice from DH.

@Cryingbutstilltrying I've just ordered myself the diary, I'm going to wrap it up for myself to me from me

Buying our first house in 2 weeks (yay!) And the only thing I desperately want is a bird feeder/bird bath.. because at the grand old age of 30 I have actually turned into a 70 year old crazy person haha

Dryrobe for me. I hope to use it when camping/at the beach/after running in winter🥶
L'occitane almond oil

A weighted blanket
Marzipan fruits
New pyjamas
A nice diary

I’ve already bought myself some pyjamas for someone to give me.

I have run out of my favourite serum but it’s v expensive so I’d like more of that as a gift.

Money/vouchers for meals out because eating out is my favourite thing to do and we rarely do.

Oh and my trainer and yoga socks are a bit holey so more of those!

I have just ordered a ninja air fryer from QVC on 6 instalments

• One of those long thin hot water bottles.
• A raised wooden planter for growing vegetables in.
• A spa day.

@PermanentTemporary would the Max Hastings books be suitable for a 15 year old with an interest in that period of history? Otherwise they are going to sit in my Amazon wishlist til he's older, as they look perfect!

Me: no idea. Not got as far as Christmas yet!

Lego!!!

that’s it 😂

So I have my birthday before Christmas so I just drop in things into conversation so we will see what I get.

My mum always buys my husband and I a joint Christmas present so I think we’ll see if we can get a new nutribullet after the previous one died.

Otherwise I’ve asked for some decent white socks as I feel like all my Tesco and primark ones get ruined so quickly. I need some new gym trainers/casual shoes and I’ve asked for some waterproof trousers. The wild life I live ha.

A cashmere blanket
perfume
not sure what else

10 hours undisturbed sleep.

These are on my wish list:

Hey Harper necklace
Waterstones book card
Dry robe
Cake baking accessories
Kate Spade bag & wallet (either a gift card if they do them or an IOU so I can get them in the sale)
