I love Christmas eve. There is something special about this night (apart from the late night visit from Santa) - maybe it's the Christmas carols and movies on television. If you would like to track Santas movements here is the place to go.
Anyway, I think the photos say it all.
We just got these ready for tonight and will place them by the tree with a glass of milk for Santa. When I was little it was beer, but I have been told numerous times by my Niece that Santa is not allowed to drink & fly. Milk appears to be the safer option.
Santa will also need to use his magic key tonight as we don't have a chimney.
Mostly though, I would like to thank you all your support, emails and comments over the last year. I wish you and your's a very special Christmas shared with friends or family, may 2010 bring you everything you have dreamed of and be filled with inspiration and a little bit of fabric here and there.
I will have a glass of wine for you tomorrow and a few chocolates too.
Take care and enjoy
Natalie xo
