Well, loyal blog readers, it’s getting closer to Christmas and since my blogging output has been woefully inadequate I have decided instead to do a giveaway of a gorgeous Namaste needle shell in Ringo.

To be in with a chance of winning, all you have to do is leave me a comment below with either your must-have Christmas item or a recipe that you think I should try. Edit: This competition is now closed. Congrats to DropOne who won the Namaste Needle Shell.

So really, it’s only fair that I show my Christmas must-have. It’s from the wonderfully talented Simmy, author of the Echoes of a Dream blog. Simmy took an extended break from her blog this year and it’s been great to have her back, especially when she showcases her work. Her Waldorf-style dolls have always resonated with me and I think that every home should have one of her Angels which are available to buy from her Etsy store:





I’ll be back before Christmas with my gifted and received Secret Santa items, some knitting and maybe a recipe or two.
