Christmas Gift Guide 2015: Home Fragrance/Candles

Part 3 of my Christmas gift guides is all about home fragrance. From beautifully scented candles to gift sets and stunning diffusers. I included a selection of festive blends and some other options too.

Christmas Gift Guide 2015: Personalised Gifts

I love personalised gifts, as they are extra special and very thoughtful. I was recently contacted by www.ijustloveit.co.uk who asked me to pick a couple of things from their website to showcase on my blog and I opted for two little presents for Mia and Zac and a keepsake for me and Scott.

WOOUF at Flamingo Gifts

 I've been looking for a good quality beanbag for the kids for ages and after buying one a while ago, that was a nightmare to clean, I gave up until I found some fantastic designs by a brand called Woouf. And guess who is their UK stockist? The lovely Flamingo Gifts!

Christmas with NEOM Organics

Neom Organics is definitely my favourite home fragrance brand, especially when it comes to Christmas scents. Their Christmas Wish candle is my must have for the festive period and this year it comes in even more beautiful packaging.

One of the things you want to do is keep your home looking beautiful all year round. This means that you need to make a design choice that is suitable for all of the seasons, else you’re going to find that some seasons you love it, and others you’re not a big fan. But there are other things that you’re going to need to do in order to keep your home looking its best. If you’re interested in finding out more about what you can do to achieve this goal then you’re in the right place! Let’s get started.

New decor bits

 I love refreshing my home decor and I often add new bits and pieces to the living room. From new cushion covers, to little ornaments and fresh flowers - it is quite easy to switch things up.

Sneak Peek Of My Christmas Decor

I had a different blog post planned for today, but there was a change of plans due to delivery delays etc. Instead of my usual beauty rambles, I am showing you a little sneak peek of my Christmas decorations. :)

Simple Christmas DIY ideas

I love DIY projects and December is my favourite time to be a little bit more creative. Every year I put together little bits and bobs to make my house look more festive and I really enjoy it! In today's post I am sharing 5 simple Christmas DIY ideas and one of them can be used as a gift as well :)

Christmas Gift Guide: Food/Drink/Homeware +Giveaway

Christmas Decorations Haul

I am not putting my Christmas tree up before the 1st of December, but I already have some decorations out and I bought some lovely bits and bobs to make my house look and feel very festive. I just love Christmas. You can find links to the items I bought online below.

Appleyard London Christmas Flowers and 40% OFF Code

I have tried many flower delivery services. From ones that pop through your letterbox, to standard massive boxes delivered to your door. To be perfectly honest - I love them all. Flowers make me happy and even a single rose puts a smile on my face.

My Gallery Wall

I have been working on my gallery wall for a while. Collecting frames, prints etc. I am still unsure if I will add more bits and bobs to it, but I am happy with the way it looks at the moment. Actually... I am in love and I can't stop staring at it, haha :)

Autumn Vibes

Autumn (especially early Autumn) is my favourite season. I just love the crisp air, slightly chilly, but sunny days and cosy evenings under warm blankets. Add some hot chocolate and candles and I am one happy bunny :) I also love decorating the house with more Autumn appropriate flowers and ornaments and I wanted to show you some of my recent additions and arrangements.

Neom Tranquility Diffuser

I am obsessed with Neom and I have their diffusers and candles in every single room. They recently launched new packaging and added some new fragrances to the range, which made me very excited. I am not sure what style of packaging I prefer to be honest. I like both. The diffusers and candles look different and you can currently get some limited edition jars, plus a smaller size for those who don't want to buy the more expensive 3 wick home candle.

New bedroom bits and decor refresh

I get bored of my home decor easily and I like changing things quite often. From a big selection of bedding to new throws and bits and bobs for the home, I spend too much time and money on it... Oooops... That's why I decided to finally say goodbye to the stripy wallpaper we had in the master bedroom (see it in THIS post) and change it to something more neutral.

I am not ashamed to admit that I keep almost every nostalgic item, because I find it really hard to part with things that mean something to me, or remind me of certain people, moments etc. It is just the way I am :) That's why I couldn't be more excited about giving you an opportunity to enter this fantastic competition hosted in cooperation with British Gas. The prize is absolutely amazing and the lucky winner will receive £500 worth of John Lewis vouchers! How can you enter?

What's On My Desk and TaoTronics Elune Lamp Giveaway

To be completely honest, I prefer working on my laptop from the comfort of my giant corner sofa :) but... when I want to be more productive, I get things done at my desk. I  share it with my husband, so it isn't totally my style, but it is a nice little space and I like having my side more girly and Scott's side modern. The desk we ended up getting is an IKEA Alex which consists of two Alex units and a 200cm long white worktop. It is massive and exactly what we were looking for! The newest addition to our desk landscape is a black TaoTronics Elune Lamp*, which we both love and... I am also giving one away to one of my lucky readers! You can enter the competition, by filling in the rafflecopter widget on the bottom of this post.

Neom 25% OFF Blogger Flash Sale and my top picks

As a massive Neom addict fan I had to let you know about their 25% off offer for bloggers. The discount is valid between the 16th and 18th of May on all stress-relieving Neom products, including the gorgeous Enchantment range. 

Neom Cocooning Candle

I was really excited to take part in the #NeomStressLessChallenge , simply because I find all their candles an absolute godsend when it comes to dealing with stress and anxiety.  The April campaign features a 3 wick Cocooning Home Candle*(£39.50), a  light and fruity scent with comforting floral notes, described as 'the perfect antidote to tired, weary bodies in need of some well-deserved me-time'.
