Christmassy room and other festive things!



 I kind of went on a MASSIVE Christmas haul, and well... got a bit overly festive! I've decorated my room, and bough some other bits and bobs- so anyway, here's a load of christmassy stuff and other festive things!










                                                           What's a room without a Christmas tree? But jokes aside, I LOVE this Christmas tree- it's big, so it suits my bedroom perfectly! I kind of went for a red and white theme this year, although I've never had a colour schemed tree... there's a first for everything! And no Christmas tree is complete without a cute little figure on top- I put a tiny little fairy on mine.


I bought this snowflake a few years back actually, but it's one of my favourites! I can't really remember where I brought it from, but it came in a pack of three.  It suits my red and white theme perfectly, and really brings out the wintery theme.
Wow, this owls eyes look like they're on fire- I promise you they're not, it's just a candle burning inside! I put these on my desk, so whenever I'm writing something, I can look up and be reminded of Christmas... ALWAYS a good thing! The candle inside is red and smells of cherry, the little thing to the left of it (I forgot what it's called??) has a little person caroling inside, and the pine cone to the right is spray painted silver, for that Christmassy touch.
I set up this nice scenery, it's pretty cute- don't you think? The snowman has a nice Christmassy feel to it, hope it won't melt by the candle (cheesy unnecessary joke, i know). The candle is pretty classic, with a gorgeous vanilla scent- it makes my room smell within minutes. I also put up some coloured lights, thought they went well with the purple walls, and fairy lights are the basic rule of getting a Christmas feeling.
 This isn't a scented candle, but I LOVE the design on it- so festive! It's a pretty big candle, but  I guess it's a change from the others. There's a nice little figure of an angle playing.. the harp? It's silver and not really aimed for Christmas, but I thought it went well. To the left is another silver spray painted pine cone- a bit of Christmassy DIY!
I have a bit of a bannister in my room, so I decided to mix it up a bit and wrap a Christmas chain around it. Just a simple silver chain I bough from Tesco, it really does do wonders- simple but effective.
 What can I say? I have a wooden beam in my room, and I couldn't leave it looking so un-festive! Another simple but effective decoration I bought from Tesco, only 1 pound- what a bargain! Sometimes it's the little details that complete the room.
Two of my favourite things wrapped in one- Christmas and onesie, how could I resist? Another things from Tesco, a little bit pricey, but it's good quality, so it's worth the money. To be honest, this is one of the most comfortable things I have every worn! The material is so cosy, and the zip feels like it's not there (a common problem among my onesies). I always get my onesies one or two sizes too big, but this time I went wild and bought three sizes bigger- best decision of my life. It feels like I can just hide in it. Seriously.
 Yet, ANOTHER thing from Tesco (I might as well just call this a Tesco haul?). These aren't necessarily Christmassy, but I would argue. They are so comfortable, the material inside is fluffy so it feels like your walking on feathers. I also buy my slippers a TINY bit bigger, so my feet are really a size 3/4, but I buy 4/5. I don't know why, I guess it's just a bit more comfortable.
 Reindeer antlers. Nothing else to say, but that these are an essential for Christmas- and yes I do make my whole family wear a pair of these on Christmas!
I bought this hat a few year ago, but I love it! It's my favourite all time hat. It's really cute, comfortable and keeps my ears nice and warm- what's there more to ask for from a hat?
You know those cold winter nights, when your wrapped in two blankets, in your onesie and fluffy socks, yet your STILL freezing? TADA. That's when the hot water bottle comes to the rescue! Just pour some hot water in, and you'll have a nice hot pillow to keep you warm. Mine is Christmas themed, I got it as a present so i have no clue as to where you can buy one, but it's amazing!
Christmas cards- of course! I actually got these from Aldi, but I think they're pretty cute. They've got quite a unique shape, and I'm glad these come in a pack of three- bit of variation.
 I got this as a present for Secret Santa... Shhh, don't tell anyone! I think this is so cool, it's Christmas themed Haribo! It's basically an igloo, and if you open the door, there are packets of Haribo's... festive and tasty? I like it.
I don't think anyone can deny a Christmas jumper! This one I got from Primark for £12, so it's pretty cheap. You can't really see, but the Christmas tree has googly eyes on it, so it's like it's looking at you the whole time! I get mine about two or three sizes to big, again, I just like to hide in my clothes.
Another gift for Secret Santa... Should I really be showing this of to the whole internet?
It's SO cute! Basically it's a snowman made of Thorntons white chocolate. I hope it lasts 'till next week, it looks so tempting!
Last gift for Secret Santa- a white galaxy chocolate. It looks so tasty, I just couldn't deny it...! I hope these gifts give you some inspiration for a gift, because at first I was so stuck as to what to buy! I thought chocolate was so boring to buy as a present... how wrong could I be?
