Hello! I had a lovely time last Sunday at the Country Living Fair in Islington with my Mum, I have been once before (and to the Spring Fair) and it is incredibly Christmassy. There were masses of stalls selling all sorts of gifts, homeware, accessories, cards, decorations....and the whole building was surrounded in a cinnamony and orangey fragrance - just gorgeous!
I bought some baubles for the Christmas tree, a bell, and a little hanging picture frame...
Some Ric Rac from East of India
Some gift tags..
A selection of lovely ribbon...
And some beautifully scented cinammon sticks. These really do fill the house...
I am looking forward to bringing our Christmas tree (official name Bruce the Spruce) in from the garden and start adorning him with the baubles. At the moment he is in a pot, kept from last year, but someone told me yesterday that the date that we are allowed to start putting the decorations up is 5th December, so it will have to wait for a few weeks!

Hi Sarah, I am very jealous of you getting to see the Country Living Christmas Fair... I went about 3 years ago now, but it's quite a treck from Devon :(
ReplyDeleteI love the gorgeous things you brought home! x
Wasn't it just enormous - my first time there this year - was slightly overwhelmed, but lots of lovely things to buy and be inspired buy!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments on my blog too, always nice to 'meet' new people.
We love it that you have named your Christmas Tree!
