I have a long list of activites planned for this years Christmas time. Emilia has the perfect age to get crafty. I have seen someone make salt dough ornaments on Instagram weeks ago and thought why not. This is the perfect opportunity for us to make something together we can keep but also gift. 

So with no further ado, here is how we made our salt dough ornaments….

Ingredients:

– 1 cup of salt 

– 2 cups of flour

– 3/4 cup of water

– mix everything together unitl you have a nice dough and then roll it out on your kitchen counter with lots of flour so it won´t stick

– bake for 2-3 three hours on 120 degrees

– let it cool and then start painting or leave it blank, however you prefer it

I used acrylic color cause it is brighter but you can also use water color.

I just love Christmas decor. No doubt about that. For me it is the most magical time of the year and now that we have two girls who are excited about all things Christmas, glitter and lights it is even more fun.

We have had a little pink Christmas tree for a couple years but to be honest it has outgrown the amount of ornaments we have collected so it was time for an upgrade. The tree I have gotten is 150 cm high and fits perfect into the girls room. Of course it had to be a pink tree and most of the ornamnets are pink or blush as well. 

For the last two years we made it our tradition to go to the store and let the girl´s choose two or three ornaments for their tree. This is a thing I cherish so much cause they are so happy to do this every year. 

Where to get cute and affordable ornaments

I have looked all over the place to get some more ornaments and I have found lots of cute at local stores like Bauhaus or Tedi but I also ordered a bunch from SheIn.

You can shop the pink tree here, the candy ornaments here, the candy canes here, the glittery snowflakes here.

Most of the shelf decor is from Sinsay and isn´t it so so cute. From what I have seen the overall Christmas trend this year has been Christmas Candyland which is perfect for a girl´s room with all the pastel hues and delicious figurines.

It is that time of year again and I am more excited than ever. Having small children during Christmas time is just the best. I am so so so amazed at how they take everything in for the first time and are so happy you can see their little faces shine. 

So let´s have a look at my favorite and probably only gift guide of the season. I love to gift a personalized gift cause it always has a lot more personal meaning and thoughts to it. I am sharing a few things I already have, have gifted over the years or gotten for other people.

 

Personalized Christmas Gifts

The Land´s End Canvas Tote – A total favorite of mine. I have several of these and they are the perfect mom, everyday and travel tote. 

For size comparison – the turquiose one is a XL and the red one is a Large.

It is very easy to get lost in the hustle and bustle of the holidays and forget about the people who help us most. For me these are our angels of Kindergarten teachers. I wanted to share a quick and easy but also cute and useful.

I personally love a Christmas themed mug and there are plenty out there who don´t cost a fortune (the monogramm one is from Anthropologie and is about 15 Euro). The mugs are filled with a little wrapping paper at the bottom and then they are stacked with a gift card of your choice (amazon, Starbuck and any other drug store would be very useful too). Too make it extra sweet I also put in a little chocolate and  then I wrap it up in clear wrapping foil so you don´t loose a thing and it also gives you the opportunity to put cute bows onto your little gift as well. Et voilá – done. 

I also have a small reel about it. You can watch it here.
