Hey guys! It’s finally DECEMBER!! I hope you’re all feeling festive! It’s officially time to crack open those advent calendars, go hunting for your decorations and get wrapping those presents! What does this December look like for you? Full of family and friends? Or maybe a more low-key month, celebrating with just one or two of your favourite people.
The Christmas season is my absolute favourite time of year so I felt like I just had to try Blogmas! (It’s my first time so go easy on me π) This first post is just a bit of an introduction/master list to get you excited for what’s to come!
I’ve got lots of exciting posts planned for this month, ranging from book reviews, book-inspired recipes and gift guides to some fun guest posts that I really hope you’ll enjoy. ππ I’ll link all of the posts here as a kind of master list of links when they’re up and published!
