I love this season, as the trees turn yellow, brown and orange, the nights draw in, the air turns crisp and Christmas is just round the corner. There is only one thing I don't like anymore and that is coming up with gift ideas for everyone.
I've been organising the present giving for so many years now that I have run out of inspiration, everyone's had the ornament, the socks and the soap that (for some reason) I thought they couldn't do without. So, if only to give me some inspiration, I've decided to try putting a few homemade presents this year.
My first effort has to be to finish this off for my brother and his fiancee:
She asked me to do it three or four year's ago but I never finished it, so with 96 days to go I'd better get busy!
Over the next few weeks I'll look for inspiration, and blog about it, any ideas gratefully received!
I love that your refer to the remaining time between now and Christmas as "sleeps." We do that in my family too!
