We haven't got our tree up yet, that's planned for next week, but I have been putting out a few decorations each day.
I love robins, they are handsome in their jolly rotund redness, but they also remind me of my dad. Not because he was red and rotund (well maybe just a bit eh dad?!), but he loved robins too and at this time of year he was especially jolly and he loved Christmas and being with his family.
So it makes me so happy to be drinking tea from my jolly robin Christmas mug
and I just had to buy this dotty, holly robin paper for wrapping up all S's pressies with.
Dreadful photo, but these are my new favourite Christmas ear-rings.
A hand knitted robin bought from a church Christmas bazaar for a few pennies
No robins to be found here, but this is my nest.
I love my bed.
And this duvet cover, it's so festive and snuggly.
I love all your robins, especially your earrings. We haven't even started to think about decorating yet. Eleanor mentioned last night that she doesn't feel the Christmas excitement now she's older. Hmmm, just wait till you're 44 love! I'll remind her what she said when she comes in to our room at silly o clock on Christmas morning.
ReplyDeleteYour duvet cover is lovely, and your earrings are so cute. Both my Nan's loved robins too.
ReplyDeleteI love Robins too - I'm always on the look out for real ones. xxxx
ReplyDeleteim a sucker for a robin too lisa.....one was hopping about in the snow yesterday...magical...and love that bedding....x
ReplyDeleteYour bed looks lovely and cosy. The knitted Robin with its dangly legs made me chuckle! x
ReplyDeleteI love robins - we have at least one that visits the garden - I think there's a pair but they are rarely seen together.
ReplyDeleteOne day I'll manage a snap of him/her - just never seem to have my camera at hand when they are in a good photo spot!
Ooh ditto everything..though maybe not the earings!!!
ReplyDeleteRobins are rather special. I like watching mine hopping about.
ReplyDeleteThere are knitted toys in shop windows all over the village. I thought they were for sale but now see they are for a hunt tonight at late shopping / Carol singing eve. Lovely idea,
Hi I love robins too! Could I ask where you got your bedding, would make a great present for my sis.
ReplyDeleteHi jr4154.
ReplyDeleteI bought the bedding earlier in the year in the Primark sale. They do have another Christmas design in this year though.
