I can't believe Christmas is only a week away now, I feel so guilty for not spreading any Christmas cheer on the blogging world, but truth be known I have been far from jolly, getting all of my art project done for the deadline was very stressful!

But anyway, it's a week away now, so surely now I can only get more excited. And in order to inspire some of that excitement here are some photos from how Christmas looks in my life.

With Christmas only being a week away I really need to get a move on with my gifts, I've done all of my Christmas shopping (pretty much) but there are a few things I still need to make, oh gosh... as well as wrapping everything, and blooming hell that can be stressful, especially as I still need to buy some.

But for something a little more happy:

My favourite thing about Christmas,

Which is seeing all of the beautiful lights and decorations around towns and cities, it really transforms a place and makes it looks magical, I love just walking around amongst the lit up trees, as long as it's just frosty and not raining.

The decorations in L1 (liverpool one- the massive shopping area) are really extraordinary, they have massive "paper" chain style decorations hanging from the different levels and amazing cones with light effects so it looks like snow is falling out of them. And at the minute on the second floor they have an ice festivals of sorts, with an ice bar, ice slide, ice rink, and ice sculptures (which I haven't been able to see yet even though my friend made some of them, but whatever *sad face*), I'm sure there is more, but when I was where is was raining very heavily so we didn't get a chance to explore.

What's your favourite thing about Christmas?

So remember, each day, live a little, laugh a little and love a little. ♥
