Now I know I wrote a bit of a Christmas downer post the other day – but really…it’s JUST the music – and if you don’t know what I’m talking about, go here if you want to read my thoughts on Christmas jingles – but I am EXTREMELY excited about Christmas! I sent a short list of things I am into these days to my family but decided to follow Stephanie May in posting some of my Christmas wishes(some I am adding but weren’t on my actual list before).
Books, books, and more books. I think this is on my list every year – I kind of like to read…just a little. Oh! And The Little Prince Pop-Up Book! It would totally go with my Little Prince collection that I talked about here.
Knitted or hand sewn pouffes. I have had the photo on the left in my inspiration folder for about 5 years. I desperately love these.

Vintage mannequins, dress forms, individual parts.

Lots of cute socks to wear with my heels or Oxford flats – floral, plaid, ruffled, striped – any and all cute patterns. I love this look and I feel I need to do more of it!

Vintage floral, plaid, patterned suitcases…Obviously I am into patterns these days – and I would LOVE to take a weekend trip with the cutest luggage around!

Not only do I want to start a vintage camera collection – I also am in love with and desperately want to own a FujiFilm Instax camera and also a Diana camera…I heart these.

Elsie’s Photo Journals E-Course….WANT. I’ve always wanted to make my own journals but not in a scrapbook way…this is like updated scrapbooking. Yes.
Tomorrow will be my first outing for Christmas shopping and I couldn’t be more excited! I am way behind and have been looking forward to hours and hours of thrift shopping, coffee drinking and creative thinking for weeks! Happy weekend loves!

I would LOVE to make something for everyone on my list, but can’t think of anything, I’m so not creative in that area :( Love that journal idea – I have always wanted to make my own as well, but I like a harder cover and a lot of the homemade journal projects are paper/light covers. I will just have to start the creativity earlier next year in order to be ready for Xmas :) Have fun!
