Christmas Gifts for the Senses

Posted on by

During the Holiday season there are many different things to indulge our senses. From the scent of pine, that reminds of (real) Christmas trees to the sound of carols playing over stores’ loud speakers…I have come up with some gift ideas for each of the 5 senses.

All I want for Christmas is Tiffany & Co.

Oh, how I wish!…but unfortunately anything from Tiffany & Co. is a little too expensive to expect from my family.

So, instead I decided to decorate my little Christmas tree in my bedroom, in a ‘Tiffany’ theme

  • I bought the baubles from The Reject shop
  • Made the other ornaments with costume jewellery from Lovisa and some ribbon from Lincraft
  • I already had the tinsel, star and the tree from the previous year
  • I made the ‘little blue box’ from blue card and white ribbon from Lincraft.

I hope you like my ‘Tiffany’ tree.

Maybe one day I will be lucky enough to get something from Tiffany & Co. for Christmas (even if it’s a present to myself)
