The 12th Day of #Wishes

Alright, it's the 12th day (my advent calendar clearly reminded me that as I was behind on chocolate, yeah it's been that crazy a week!) and I had two wishes in mind for today!  But... it's the last day of wishes so I thought I'd spoil you a bit instead. These wishes you're about to see are found in stores that have such great range of products, it was easy to add many items to my list, but so hard to pick just one!  Firstly from one of my favourite online interior stores, Mia Fleur, I bet you'll also fall in love with these...     Clockwise from top left: Concrete Candle Holders Brass Wire Storage Basket Black Geometric Hanging Planter...

The #tenthwish is a big one! 

I've had my eye on this one for a while. It's multi-purpose, comfortable and pulls off a geometric pattern really well!  There's something about a footstool that is just so cool. I prefer it ten times over a coffee table. Probably because it can add interest, colour, texture and is also multi-functional. Totally my thing!  See for yourself the super cute footstool I found at Loaf.   You'll be wanting to shop for an awesome tray to go with it once this wish has come true...

The Getting-Organised #Wish

This one might be more of a New Year wish than a Christmas one, however I'm not a great believer in new year resolutions. I mean why have a set day to start something when you can do it today? I prefer the get-up-and-do-it go-getter kind of attitude! Why wait for tomorrow when you can change it now, right?  Anyway, back to my #ninthwish. Today, I wish for a planner. A bloggers planner. From The Bloggers Planner. They are just the coolest most adorable planners around, and really well thought out as well, the detail in them is incredible.  It doesn't need to be just for bloggers though! They also sell different types of planners: the project planner, day planner, menu...

Make a Cushion Wish

This time of the year can be quite stressful with all the pressure to get everything ready for Christmas, the shopping list that's never ending and the countdown that keeps reminding us how many days we have left to get all of the above done (How many times have you heard today that there's only 17 sleeps till then? Or 16 days? I heard it too many times!) It's good to have a break from all that and have some fun too! And what could be more fun than a new set of cushion covers? Especially when they come in such playful designs like the ones from H&M.    At a small budget of under £8 each, you can get quite...

My #seventhwish

I knew that Rockett St George would just have the most perfect gifts, but picking just one was the hardest thing ever!  There's so much choice, and it's so easy to browse their site and get lost within all the cool accessories and everything else they sell, before I knew my basket was full! So there I went trying to pick just one...  And the one I picked is something for the interior addict that is cool, quirky and most of all spontaneous!     Says it all right? I really did want it all, but I definitely couldn't let go of this Cinematic Light Box, which comes with interchangeable letters, numbers and symbols to change as you wish. Want to see...
