The countdown is creeping up! yesterday marked the 70 days till Christmas milestone. still not the time to say agggh I promise.
If you visited Mel's blog yesterday you'll see she was sharing her home decor. I have to admit I haven't really got a plan yet for mine - though I did go shopping the other day to check out what was at bed Bath and Table -they have their display out and it's so gorgeous as always. I do have to confess that I only ever buy when its on special. I know retailers are ringing their hands in despair but that's just the way it is - they always mark them down and if I miss out on a favourite - well never mind.
I promise to share some thoughts on decor over the next few weeks but today I thought I'd show some of the goodies that I have found. We have the added delight of birthdays in november with our girls so it becomes a bit crazy with the two present giving seasons only a month apart.
I don't get alot from Amazon as I find that I'll often get to the checkout and they will say they don't ship to my address and that can be frustrating but I did find these. Thanks to Mel for the heads up.

It's a large pack - very sturdy and I'm really thrilled with what it looks like from the outside. I'm thinking this will be a birthday present because it will keep them occupied for ages - we have just on one million weeks of school holidays to entertain ( I know exaggerated but they sure get alot more than me LOL)
