What do *you* want for Christmas?

[SwanSongMoggy]

My family are asking me what I would like for Christmas. The kids aren't too impressed with my answer - a two week adults only trip to Bora Bora. I love them but I would love a break (and I hate sand, so they know this is all in jest).

When it comes down to it though, I really don't know what I'd like - I don't need anything. So what is it that you would like for Christmas? I obviously need some inspo.

Thank you.

I collect skulls……they are all from animals that have died from natural causes (no animals harmed).

Kits don't help imo - they are just a more expensive way of buying a pattern and materials! You just need to get a hook anc sime yarn and find a YouTube crocheter /company you get on with . I'd recommend Bella Coco.

Gold hoops earrings, blankets, nice soap, skin oil, cocktail glasses.

Silver earrings (non-dangly, not too big)
Silver necklace (fine chain with an subtle but interesting something on it)
Thin stacking bracelets (a mixture of silver and gold coloured)
An aromatherapy massage at a local spa

I have this dilemma every year...so the past year I've sent myself links to websites to a Notes on my phone called Gifts For Me. It's my birthday next week so I've edited the list to be sure I like everything and have shared with DH and DD20 & DD16. Whatever I get I will love and it's a surprise! And anything left over goes on the Christmas list

Some of my list
Blunt umbrella - peony please
L'occitanne almond shower oil
Stackers jewellery box Taupe
Garden Trading marble cake dome
Lumos Pro pen from Tom's Studio
Malfy gin - Rosa
Lambeth bag from Pompom London
Abbot Lyon molten link bracelet
M&S nice handcream
Me & Em palazzo pants
Ceramic watercolour paint palette Etsy
Oliver Bonas weekend bag in black

I would be very content with gift cards for shops that I definitely like... that way, I can buy everything that I like (i.e. it doesn't contain alcohol or sickly chocolates, doesn't need dusting, fits me, is useful, doesn't upset my skin, etc.)! I would particularly benefit from gift cards from places like B&Q, because I'm in the long process of doing my house up. A bonus would be if someone came to do some decorating for me!

Sadly, nobody will buy me books. Family members tell me, "...but you have too many as it is!" I just like reading!

Audible credits so I can choose new books!
