Christmas.

Ah, Christmas!
There are less 30 days to go and I am getting a little bit excited!

This time of year is so crazy and I always try to get organised for Christmas early but I never am! Surprisingly, I am organised this year. I've got most of the gift shopping done but still need to get gifts for family members and friends.

The Christmas tree is going up on the 1st. We stick to tradition and always put the tree up on first. Everyone in the family owns a special Christmas decoration. The youngest child always puts the angle on top of the tree and we all kiss her before she goes on top.

So tell me, do you stick to tradition and put the tree up on the first?

This week.

This week has been full of sickness, napping, coughing and sickness. But it is finally Friday! 

Tomorrow I plan to get my hair trimmed and to take some photos and on sunday maybe a beach visit.  What do you plan on doing this weekend?

Did I mention I'm a tiny bit jealous of my mum, she is going to the Cold Play concert! Lucky!

I love gift wrapping.

I love to give people presents. I also really love to wrap them. I always try to go to a bit of effort when wrapping a gift.

I especially love to use brown paper, string and washi tape.

 

Below are three cute DIY gift wrapping ideas using brown paper.

 

 

Twinkling neon star stickers look great on brown paper! So sweet for Christmas wrapping.

 

 

If you have forgotten to buy a card, just cut out some big circles and write your message on that.

 

 

Neon circle stickers, add brown twine string to finish the gift off.

Lenses.

Hi everyone,


I am thinking about buying a new lens. I just can’t choose which one to buy, there are so many!

When I brought my canon eos 600d it came with two lenses;  18-55mm and 55-250mm. They are great lenses but I would like to get more into portrait photography.

What is your favorite lens and why?

Sunday

It's only 1pm and it feels so much later.  So what have I done today? Well, let's see.

I woke up this morning at 8:30am. By 10am I had jogged 2k, cleaned 2 bathrooms and tidied the house. I've just finished baking cookies and they are delicious! Now I'm off to do the groceries.

What are you up to on this beautiful spring day?
