1. this december scented candle from sparrow & co. would get me in the mood for christmas.
2. my father’s a bee keeper, so i’ve always had a bit of a thing for anything bee-related – as well as a serious addiction to honey. this bee necklace from luna and curious is perfect!
3. my partner and i escape to pembrokeshire several times a year and we often visit the ancient woolen mill in solva where these beautiful blankets are woven.
4. i collect vintage keys, so this beautiful one from bottle green homes would be a nice addition to the display.
5. every year i plan to make my own crackers (and have the snaps ready), but i never get around to it. these nepalese ones from toast are lovely instead.
6. this stunning hand-made ‘taena blue’ cotswolds cup and saucer is from a tiny pottery near where i grew up; i already have a few pieces from here but would like a full set. chunky, hand-made tableware is so beautiful.
7. sibella court’s books always inspire me and her latest offering, nomad: a global approach to interior style, is next on the list.
8. i am a coffee lover, but don’t like tea. very shallow of me – i only want this kusmi smoky earl grey for the pretty tin!
9. rifle paper co. prints gorgeous stationery and calendars, such as this 2012 calendar print, available from papermash.
Thanks for featuring our vintage key. I always add one or two of the smaller ones to our christmas tree for some vintage charm. Sibella’s book is amazing, I just can’t put it down (which I need to as I have to get some parcels out). I’m going to check our the rifle paper co at Papermash as I need a big planner for next year. Happy christmas. x
What a lovely selection of bits. I love everything papermash. I could spend a fortune on that website, and those crackers from toast are so beautiful.
