Simple Things

This year, instead of buying each other presents, me and two friends decided to do a homemade Christmas. I didn't have any ideas at first but in the end I decided to made gingerbread men and a card with loads of photos on :)

Here are a few photos to show you what they turned out like...

I will admit the gingerbread looked a bit rubbish on its own, even though I spent hours making and decorating all the shapes! I decided to wrap them up and try and make them look pretty. Here's how I did it if you want to try: I used boxes for the bottom, I wrapped one of these in tissue and the other in wrapping paper. The inside is just a patterned paper napkin from Ikea. I put the gingerbread inside and put cling-film over the top then tied string round the whole box. Voila :)
Luckily my friends really liked them, I'm yet to receive their presents but I'll update you on what their ideas were :) Let me know what you think, a nice idea or stick to buying presents?

Hope you all had a magical Christmas,

Hey House Brick

Oooh it's nearly Christmas, how exciting!? The house is decorated, I've bought all of my presents and the snow just keeps falling :)

My friends want to do our own 'Come Dine With Me' after January exams. I think it's a great idea but it'll probably never get followed through, still exciting though!

Hope you're all well,

Georgina xx

P.S. If you don't know what 'Come Dine With Me' is, you're missing out. Look it up it's brill :)

It's a little bit funny




Absolutely beautiful. This is my favourite song at the moment by far! I love the video too, really natural and christmassy. It's also on the John Lewis advert in case you were wondering where you recognised it from :)
