Festive Top Ten Guest Post: Sewindie

 
I have had such a long day today, and almost didn't write this post...but I really want to keep my promise to myself to blog every day while doing this Festive Top Ten. Why do we set ourselves such challenging targets sometimes, oh yeah...so we can grow! Ok then, on with the show.
 
So today's guest blog comes from Cara of Shshhh blog, otherwise known as SewIndie.
 
 
 
I follow her blog and Twitter, she is very inspiring on both...and her tweets make me laugh a lot. Her blogs are about craft and art, making things and eating pancakes; maybe in that order on some days.
Herewith is her Festive Wish List - (hope you're listening Santa):

Yummy.
Never thought I could fall in love with vegan soaps, but smitten I is. And I can't look too long at that sofa because it makes me want to cry: it's too beautiful and my sofa is some crappy old thing I got second hand for £50 five years ago....*sniff*
Don't know if Cara, or any of you know this but Lush started as a company called 'Cosmetics to Go' and that was in my local town of Poole in Dorset. Their base is still here and they have factories all over the area - they smell amazing! many of my friends old and new have at some time worked there. The original shop is in Poole High Street, which is where I go to get my Lush-on.
 
What did you like best from Cara's list?
