Advent wish list #23

Bobble water bottles.
I don't know if you have heard of them or not, but these bottles seem to be big around the world. They are made from recycled plastic bottles, designed to stop the waste of plastic water bottles, and filter your water to make it all clean and like shop bought water. Pretty awesome. They are Bobble water bottles.

I'm not the kind of person that drinks lots of water, despite knowing that we need a good amount of water a day to stay all fit and healthy and stuff. I do, however, find that if I have a bottle of water in my bag with me, or just nearby, I tend to drink a lot more water...so having a water bottle is actually good for me. I did have a plastic bottle back in Geneva I quite liked, and enjoyed using, but I don't have it with me. Plus I totally love the idea of these bottles, so yeah, if you REALLY wanted to get me something, and thought "Hey, a water bottles a cool idea" then I would love to receive this from you. But don't worry, because I'll happily buy it for myself anyways. :)

Advent wish list #22

Another item from the Australian Kookai. It's so pretty. I think it would be perfect for an evening party. :) Simple but perfect.

Advent wish list #21

Europa Cushion.
More Jonathan Adler. I'm not like super crazy about the Europa cushion, but it fits in with my personalised cushions theme. :P Plus, we love Europe. I love the Zebra one though, pretty awesome. If I was to get just one of the cushions I have posted about, I think it would be that one (I would still be very happy with any of the others...why else would they be on my list?), but that Zebra one is cool. :P

What's your favourite Jonathan Adler cushion?

Advent wish list #19

Photos found on weheartit.com
I'm all about the food at Christmas...maybe not al about, but the food is one of my favourite things about Christmas, along with the music, the decorations, the happiness. These Christmas tree cupcakes look awesome! They are probably super tricky to eat, but who cares, look how pretty! :P I remember seeing somewhere on the internet that you can make the tree by putting an upside down strawberry on the cupcake and piping the green squirty things around it, doesn't sound too complicated to make. So, I'd love to give it a try. Help with music and a yummy chocolate drink would be muchly appreciated!

Advent wish list #18

Isn't it pretty? I'm sure it could make most simple t-shit and shorts outfits look so much cooler. I like the colours in it too. Yes please!

Advent wish list #17

When I was little I got a card with this picture on it, I'm pretty sure it ended up in a frame.
Pocahontas! This used to be my all time favourite Disney movie, it's now a very close second to Beauty and the Beast. I love the colours, I love the songs, I love that she can talk to nature. It's such a lovely movie, I would love to add it to my eventual Disney collection!

Advent wish list #16

Gorgeous skirt from the Australian Kookai.
I love this skirt! And the top! The whole outfit is gorgeous! I don't know if I'd wear it in Australia...my dressing has gone very casual...but maybe a beautiful outfit like this is just what I need to start dressing all lovely again! :P

Advent wish list #15

Michelle Armas - Eggplant.
Another art wish. I love Michelle Armas' paintings. They are the kind of paintings some people would claim they could do themselves, or their 3 year old could do, but really they can't. It takes talent to get these kind of paintings right, you need to have a very free flowing mind...I'm still way to organised and rigid in my drawing to be able to do anything like this, which is probably why I am so drawn to these. They are beautiful. I especially love 'Eggplant', which is the painting above, but all of her paintings are beautiful. I wouldn't mind having one in my eventual home! :)

Advent wish list #14

Aries Zodiac cushion.
I said there would be more Jonathan Adler love on this list. MORE CUSHIONS! This time instead of our initials, our star signs! Awesome, I know. None of the stuff I want to decorate my eventual home with actually matches, but still, how cool? Right? I can hear you shaking your head at my sillyness...but oh well! I even like how much the two go together. :) Awesome! So yeah, Zodiac cushions please.
Gemini Zodiac cushion.

Advent wish list #13

Strawberry Santa's.
Can we please make these strawberry goodies for Christmas? Having Christmas in summer is a bit weird. On a summers day filling, warm, baked goods don't seem quite as appealing as on a cold, dark night. Solution: strawberry christmas goodies! Love these three ideas and would love to try make them! They make me smile.
Santa Hat Brownies, recipe found here.
Scrummy Strawberry Christmas tree, recipe found here.
Mmmm...I'm not even sure if I'm a strawberry fan, but these do all look tempting!

What Happened? Bandages
These plasters are pretty awesome, I wouldn't mind having these for any cuts I get. Hehe, I especially like the What Happened? ones. :) Awesomeness.
Cry About it Bandages

Advent wish list #11

Kookai Australia.
I love this whole outfit. It looks cool, fun and comfy, plus it's colourful! I'd love an outfit like that, it doesn't have to be that exact one (I think the thigh pockets would make my already large thighs look even bigger) but those colours, that top. :) Oh I love dreaming of clothes!

Advent wish list #10


Beauty and the Beast. I love this movie. I love the lessons it teaches. I love the songs. So I would love to add it to my eventual Disney collection. So much love for Disney.

Advent wish list #9

Big black bow headband
I have a weird love for Ban.do. I love their things, but I would only want to possess very few of them. Two of their hair accessories I absolutely love are the big black bow headband and the gift bow clip. I also think both would be absolutely perfect for a Christmas outfit. :) Neither of them are that expensive either...definite teasers... :P
Gift bow
Oh man, I have totally tempted myself into wanting to buy them again...

Advent wish list #8

It's already the 8th? Gosh time is flying! We really need to start getting ready for Christmas too! :P So, todays totally awesome thing I would love to have is a cushion, or 3 cushions to be exact. 3 cushions that go very nicely together. Cushions perfect for a sofa that belongs to me and James. K&J. J&K...whichever way you like it.
More from Jonathan Adler, man his stuff is awesome. There are still 4 more cushions of his I'd love to possess, and quite a few vases too! And Salt and Pepper shakers...but I've already shared the awesomeness of his Salt and Pepper shakers. So yes, some day I would like to own some cushions like these to decorate our little sofa (that does not yet exist). Some day.

Advent wish list #7

Could I please get Adobe Creative Suite or Adobe Photoshop? I miss editing my photos properly. I miss being able to colour my art in Photoshop. I miss the creativity that came with owning Adobe stuff.

I will totally be saving up for this. Although, once I own one of the above I have a feeling all my time shall be spent at the computer...

Advent wish list #6

Electric Garden (pink)
COZAMIA artwork! I don't quite remember how I came across her stuff, but it is beautiful! I love the colours, and everything else about her work. I would definitely love to have one of her pieces in my eventual home. My favourite three are the ones shown in the post. I can't explain why I like these three so much, I just find them super attractive, I could stare at them for quite some time...and I think thats a sign of good artwork. :)
Wild Herringbone in Pink 
Adaeze (in Taupe)
The artist, Nancy, also has a super cute and inspiring blog I think you should maybe check out. I've spent far too long going through it...you can find it here.

Advent wish list #5

Brass moustache bottle opener, found here.
Jonathan Adler seriously makes awesome things! Expect a couple more posts of his stuff in my wish list, he makes awesomeness! My first two objects of desire are the lovely moustache bottle opener above (because everyone needs a bottle opener, and I love moustaches) and the cool stripy salt and pepper shakers below (because I am currently loving black and white patterned house things). Ah, the love!
Stripe Salt and Pepper Shakers, found here.
If you could have anything from his website, what would it be?
