    That's really cute. If it was more colourful I'd buy it for my nephew. He's only 5 though so I don't think he'd appreciate it, colourful or not!

    I mean, I could buy it for my cats, but I don't think they'd quite appreciate it either? :pac: :p

    Here are my new decorations for my tree.

    Think they are kind of retro/vintage looking.

    My tree is red and green themed generally.

    Thanks again, they are bought and on the way. I had my CC in my pocket so didn't have to leave my chair.

    I bought matching christmas swing dresses for me and my daughter.... Can't wait to wear them.

    I bought this Santa mug in the EZ Living Christmas shop in Blanch. (Posted about the shop in the chat thread.)

    And I got the slippers in Penneys. They jingle. :D


    The photos are sideways when I embed them so I'll just leave them as attachments rather than confusing myself trying to fix them.

    I can't wait to stick my feet up on the couch and wiggle them and pretend to be an actual elf. :D

    Oh I also bought some more of my husband's present today. He's so easy to buy for. He loves beer and I've learned enough from him to be able to buy what he likes so I popped into the off licence to buy a few more bottles. Need to get cracking on the rest of the shopping now!

    I'm going to have to get a pair! I got an elf costume last year and these slippers will go perfectly!

    Bought loads of the Christmas gift bags and ribbons in Lidl today. I also picked up Advent calendars for all the smallies.

    The slippers in heatons are now in adult sizes for men I'm assuming the women's ones will be in shortly !

    I went to Ikea today and got the Santa on the left.

    vinter-2015-decoration-ceramic-santa-claus__0371103_pe551667_s4.jpg

    Super good value at €8 given that it's ceramic and it's 25cm tall.
