My dd is almost 5 and suffers very bad xmas, but she is a girly girl and loves to be pampered, so far i have only known one lush product to cause her problems, and i think that was cos it contained minute traces of glitter. i would avoid anything with glitter or berrys (our specialist said berries can aggrevate it). Firm favourites in our house are the dorethy bubble bar and honey bath bomb. why not get the ickle bot to start with, a little robot shaped bath bomb especially for the younger and more sensitive audience! :j

Pinknfluffy, I think you have Christmas on the brain.

Does your daughter really suffer from very bad XMAS ? :xmastree:

Thought I would share this link to a Christmas cake I am planning on making for home and the children's teachers.

Also making one for DD's birthday with a lilac top.

BHS has a gift shop on-line.

Not a great deal on it , but enough for now.

I love their food gifts. Am putting a coca-cola napkin holder on my own present list.:snow_laug

What are everyone's plans for christmas cake decoration? I will be making 2 large cakes and some mini ones for hampers. One will need to be cutesy for the children (not that they'll eat it) and one definitely contemporary. Last year I did something like these

so something different this year!

Argh, just had a mare on argos! Had to reserve 3 items under 3 different reservations as it kept saying out of stock! Then added it up and it will be 49.97! Had to add on a playmobil pouch so that it goes over 50 and can get my 5 voucher!

This will officially start my shopping! Whoop! X

I looked on Argos' website for toy gifts to reserve ready for tomorrow, but there's nothing on there that I want!... well nothing I want for the price I'm willing to pay, so will be giving that a miss unfortunately!

Ooh Own My Own how I envy you:) I'm close but not that close been in limbo now for a few weeks its time for one last push. Don't know if its just me but my weekly big shop shopping trolley has gone up so much lately that trying to sneak a few extras for Christmas is really showing, whereas in previous years it seemed far easier!
Just realised Snugglebunny you are almost there too:) well done you

Have we all just become very tight, or have things just become very expensive ?

There are now so many things that I will not buy on principle, because of the price.:(

SORRY :xmassign: BACK TO HAPPY CHRISTMAS THREAD :snow_grin

alja

haha! well...I just looked at the things I would possibly buy but thought, I can probably get something similar from home bargains for at least half the price! I guess it's good if you know exactly what toy you're after!
