Awaiting with eager anticipation

Advent is upon us!  The anticipation and excitement is mounting by the minute!  I have spent the evening making a mountain of mince pies for my work Christmas do on Friday so am really too tired to blog properly, but I couldn’t resist sharing these pretty advent candles, and this fabulously beautiful advent calendar.

Isn’t it stunning?  And so clever – the number of buttons on each pocket correspond with the date (as in, one button for December 1st, 2 buttons for December 2nd).  One of these years I will get round to making my own fabric advent calendar.  You should perhaps expect a few more pretty advent calendar posts, there is certainly a lot of inspiration on flickr!
