Hi guys,

I know that Christmas time puts a lot of pressure on each and every one of us. There is the decoration we have to set up, gifts we need to find, there are family or holiday parties to host and menues to plan and don´t forget to send out the Christmas cards in time!!
 Thinking of all these different things might be overwhelming at first but you have to tackle it piece by piece and for the time in between I have 4 tips/activites to lower your stress levels and give you the possibilitiy to really enjoy the most wonderful time of the year.

#1
Grab a cup of hot cocoa, head to your sofa and turn on Netflix. They have so many Christmas movies on their channel. You will get in the festive mood believe me and it is also nice to cuddle up while it´s cold outside.
My favorites are:

A Christmas Prince
The Spirit of Christmas
The Grinch
A Christmas Kiss
Merry Kissmas
The Nightmare before Christmas
Miracle on 34th Street


#2
Be sure to create your own and unique Christmas playslist. Listening to your favorite Christmas songs whenever you like really is a nice change to the normal radio (in my opinion they chat to much and always play the same songs). You can listen to your playlist while driving in the car, wrapping presents or cooking and cleaning at home.
Be sure to check out my playlist for some inspo.

                                                                    

#3
Bake the Christmas cookies YOU love the most. As a woman we always try to please others and care about others more than about ourself. That´s just how it works but sometimes there is something you have to do for your own especially in stressful times. Search the recipe you love the most and start baking and if these are some your family members or room mates don´t like – good for you, so there is even more left.
Here is my favorite recipe. They are called snowflake cookies and super delicious. 

#4
Visit Christmas markets
The Christmas markets are everywhere these days so it is nice to spend an afternoon or an evening strolling around. Having some punch and some delicious food. Maybe you can find a last minute gift at the booths with all the pretty handmade things like wooden figurines or handcolored candles. 


It is good to unwind before the big day hits. 


We are going to visit a Christmas market on Sunday and I am also going to bake my favorite Christmas cookies tomorrow listening to my Christmas playlist. 

Do you have any other tips to lay back before the stressful three days of Christmas?

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Hi guys

and welcome to my second gift guide for Christmas. Today´s theme is the homebody. This is a kind of person I can really relate too cause as soon as it gets Winter I become a number one homebody myself. It is dark and cold outside and I love to cuddle up on the sofa with a cozy robe or a cozy blanket and sip a cup of hot cocoa. 

Most of the gifts are under 50 € so they are pretty affordable but in fact this is always hard to say cause it depends on how much you can and want to spend. 

How far are you with your Christmas decorations and gift shopping? I almost have everything. Decoration is done and today I am starting to make Christmas cookies.


I have nothing planed for the weekend than staying at home and test cooking some meals I want to make for our Christmas dinner. 


Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.

Hi guys,

and welcome to my first Christmas gift guide of 2017.  I plan on posting five different gift guides for all the different recipients in your and my life. Let´s start with the beauty junkie today cause as a self-appointed one I almost couldn´t wait on sharing this gift guide with you. 
There are many products which make a great gift on their own cause they are almost to expensive to buy yourself throughout the year and there are gift sets which have a great price point and really good items to try for a fraction of the normal price or for example the perfume gift sets. You get the fragrance in the regular size for the normal price and a bodylotion or shower gel in original sizing for free and also a beautiful packaging.
And after all the Christmas gift hunt and stress decorating and baking there should be something for ourselves too so why not get your selves a gift set as well ??
What do you like best whether it is for yourself or someone who loves beauty items like you do?

Hi guys,
(post contais affiliate links / Werbung/Beitrag enthält Affiliate Links)
since Florian´s sister moved out and is now furnishing and decorating her new appartment she probably is planning on a housewarming party too. I have admit I don´t mind picking out gifts for others cause I am pretty good at that. In fact it makes me much happier gifting other people than receiving gifts. It is something I really enjoy. 
And as we are in the beginning of November Thanksgiving, Christmas and NYE aren´t too far away. If you are invited to a party you should be sure to take at least a bottle of wine or something bubbly with you. I was thinking about some more practical and thoughtful gifts so I decided to share this little gift guide with you. All the gifts could be easily transformed as christmas gifts too.

I picked some pieces which are pretty general but still nice and thoughtful. So in fact you can´t go wrong with a color or anything else here.

Thanks for stopping by. Take care. See you.
