Day One: Frosty Mornings and Advent Calendars

Skimmia with frost

It's the first day of December and I have ordered my turkey, bought all my presents and made my Christmas cards, and I was thinking to myself that I am not as organised as usual! I am loving the fact that we have started to get some frosty mornings - everything looks so nice with a sprinkling of frost, and it is so much nicer than a wet winter.

Every year, I decide that I will make an Advent Calendar, but I never seem to get past the thinking about it stage! Pinterest is full of images of amazing advent calendars from matchboxes to envelope trees and toilet roll tubes. This year, I am going to have a go at making a Barn Quilt Advent Calendar from Lily's Quilts. She will be posting up the barns each day to print, colour and add a treat. I will let you know how I get on!
