So let's flow on this snow with a sack on my back, cos Santa's tryin to mack in his Cadillac...

So today was my last day of my holiday before the manic christmas period and I decided to help my mama out and make some bits for her shop window. Her charity shop is entered into a window competition and we have been acquiring ladders, jars, christmas decorations, making gingerbread houses all ready to smash it. I had a browse of Pintrest last week and came up with the concept (literally taking this very seriously and if she doesn't win I doubt there will be a christmas in our house) so today I made these jars which I think turned out pretty good considering it was a collection of things in the cupboard and some kindly donated jars from Sarah and Pete.

It is as easy as it looks, simply make layers out of brown sugar, flour and hot chocolate and decorate accordingly. I spray some fir cones I had collected from the forest and also popped down to the sweet shop and brought the candy canes then kinda just rolled with reels of ribbon, brown paper, a trusty sharpie and some scissors. 

My favourite one is the centre one which is kind of like a forest scene with accompanying flour as snow. They took me about an hour to make and I think they are a really great christmas decoration with a twist. Im all about a traditional feel but too much tinsel is not how playas roll, though note I have been wearing a velvet bow in my barnett all day and then did dabble with a tinsel belt for a while. 

I feel so christmassy already and I 100% had the christmas bangers on, the lyrics to this one are off the chain. Santas trying to mack in his Cadillac...TLC you tha bomb!
