2023 Christmas purchases

SarahLil

Followed by @Loughc thread last year (I hope that’s ok to post @Loughc

Pick up a tub of Celebrations? A Christmas ornament? Splash out on a new Christmas tree?

Cake decorations? Wrapping paper or get somebody's present ticked off the list?

Come and show us here so we can ooooh and aaaah over all your purchases!

Picked up a light up Snowman from Home Store & More for outside the front door yesterday. Can't wait to see what he adds to the outside of the house.

Got a few tree baubles between JYSK, Home Store & More, the local chemist and Sostrene Grenes. The plan was to bin some of our older ones but I definitely didn't throw out as many as I bought. Have hidden a tin of chocolate mikado and a tin of shortbread so far. Have bought and wrapped presents for small nieces/nephews. Only my own kids and husband to buy for now. Have the Christmas dinner ordered and paid for.

After 22 years of Santa visiting our house he won't be stopping here anymore. Not sure whether to be sad or absolutely delighted 😂

Picked this hand held snow globe in the card factory it spins the snow and lights up smaller babies and toddlers might like it I am almost sure it was less than a fiver

I used to love picking up plastic snow globes in Henry Street or Ilac years ago all the little visitors use to always go mad for them when visiting

(Not sure why my photos won’t upload any tips please)

Picked this up too trying to add a decoration each year based on my little ones interests last year was unicorns this years dogs

Picked this up online, customised with child’s name, my little one has a good understanding so we will have it for years to come
