Let It Snow!

It's getting quite near to Christmas now and I'm sure we're all starting to feel festive and somewhat Christmassy!  I for one really love a white Christmas, a proper Christmas card type scene to wake up to on Christmas morning.  I wonder if that might be in store for us this Christmas.  It's a big 'fingers crossed' for me on  that one!  Maybe that's the child in me  coming out, I don't know.

For my blog for 'Found on Folksy' this time, I have chosen images which give me that warm Christmas glow and sum up all things festive.

 I hope you enjoy my choices as much as I've enjoyed putting them together for you.  As this is my last blog for 'Found on Folksy' before Christmas, I would just like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas.  Have fun and be happy!

Folksy Fashion

Need a new dress for that big night out or celebration coming up?  Well, I was thinking that too so I thought I'd check out what was available through the new look Folksy. And what an interesting mix indeed. There's something quite special about wearing a costume that is quite unique and just not available on the High Street. The Folksy fashionistas didn't disappoint! What a great range and I hope you think so too!

Now, Where's My Christmas List?

How did Christmas come around again so quick? I'm only just beginning to accept that I need to start my shopping and have just made THE LIST. It's bigger than I remember it being last year. Must not panic! There are people I'm going to spend time with, I can do that later. There are those I need to post to, which needs to be addressed about now, to leave time for shipping and in case anything needs to be made to order. Here are just a few Folksy goodies that I found on my first browse....there's lots more for Mums, Dads, brothers, sisters, boyfriends, aunties, grannies, nieces and godchildren...So dig around and find that perfect gift for all your family and friends on the newly designed Folksy. And don't forget your Christmas cards!
