    Missed those, I really wanted to buy more today but I felt judged by all the people buying halloween decorations!

    Heatons have 6ft christmas trees for €25, so I know where to go if I miss out on lidl next week

    I WANT TO RUSH TO HEATONS!!!

    Meanwhile, making do with Dealz, an owl-shaped tealight holder. For a collector of owls.

    This is definitely my favourite purchase so far

    I got a pink throw in Penneys the other day but I wanted to change it for a grey one so my husband kindly went there to change it for me today. He's a total genius because rather than getting a plain grey one he got a grey one with an 'alpine landscape' pattern on it. It's subtly Christmassy and so cosy.

    I bought a toy Christmas village on ebay and am so excited about it. It will satisfy my wish for a Christmas village display while surviving the attentions of a 3 year old. This is a picture of part of it.:)

    Has anyone seen any bedspreads for a kingsized beds. I've got my eye on one on ebay and have to buy it soon if I want it for most of December. But I'm sure that the minute I find it, I'll see an amazing one in the shops. I loved, loved, loved the patchwork one that was in Penney's last year for a single bed but rarely see anything for a kingsize. Especially as I want a bedspread rather than duvet cover. This is the one I'm probably getting, I think with some Christmas cushions it would look great.
