Decor for House and Home This Christmas
Now let’s just say that I am slightly obsessed with Christmas. If my husband would let me, I’d be like one of those eccentric Americans that decorate the life out of their home with lights and glitter.

So today I am showing off what decor is available out there for house and home this Christmas… Let’s start off with a company whose main focus is Christmas – The Christmas Boutique.

The Full Heck Deck from HECK
Being a mum to 3 children, I am very conscious of the fact that we need to know where our food has come from and how it has been made. I mean, just because it says ‘pork sausages’ doesn’t mean that there are no additives or nasties. So I’m always looking out for new foods to try to get our tastebuds tingling from the deliciousness. HECK are in the sausage and burger business and are based in our neck of the woods in Yorkshire. Priding themselves on service and flavour, they pull out all the stops to deliver farmers’ market quality sausages, working from the farm to he factory to ensure…

Paw Patrol Adventure Bay Railway Track Set
There are so many toys out on the market at the moment and it shows more when Christmas arrives. Just watching the adverts in between kids TV shows put me in a tizz. And so, when I find a toy set that the kids not only love but also features characters from one of their favourite shows, I just know that it will be popular, especially for Christmas. We were sent the Paw Patrol Adventure Bay Railway from Spin Master and as soon as it arrived the boys were pulling at the box to get it open. They adore Paw Patrol and watch it nearly every day, so I knew this…
