It’s no secret that I’ve been quite ill recently. I am almost feeling like myself again so I was delighted to be sent a parcel of goodies to help me have a lovely relaxing evening at home.
I’ve been enjoying this fun lime green sketched dog motif cushion by Ben de Lisi for Debenhams. I’ve always wanted a dog but I think the cushion is as close to owning a dog as I’m likely to get. Luckily my cats weren’t phased and it’s a very welcome addition to my spot on the sofa.
I’ve never owned a Yankee candle before, and I never thought they’d be sold in Debenhams, but I received a huge Midsummer’s Night housewarmer candle. It smells gorgeous and I can totally see why they are so popular. It transformed my lounge into a really tranquil space and it looks like it’s going to last for ages. It has a blend of musk, patchouli, sage and mahogany cologne which means my husband couldn’t complain about me lighting it either!
My parcel contained a bottle of red wine which I can’t drink at the moment so I was excited to receive a classic stainless steel teapot and some intriguing tea temples from teapigs. It’s ages since I’ve made a proper pot of tea and I quite enjoyed taking the time to make it properly. In fact I’ve been using it quite a lot lately, I’ve fallen back in love with a good old cup of tea!
The final goodies were a copy of Wolverine which ticked the eye-candy box for my Cosy Night In (*swoon* Hugh Jackman), a box of specially iced Biscuiteers biscuits and even a bottle of nail polish. My lovely night in made me feel so much better and I was more than happy to shut my laptop for an evening and put my feet up.
What’s your must-have for a cosy night in? A glass of wine or a cup of tea? Night in with your partner or gossip with the girls? Let me know!
Disclosure – I was sent a selection of goodies from Debenhams for the pure purpose of having a Cosy Night In 🙂

What a delightful bunch of goodies Debenhams sent you! I’ve got a couple of Yankee candles – they smell lush!
Ooh what lovely goodies and Yankee candles are fabulous I seem to remember! That teapot is wonderful and my husband loves teapigs. I hope you got to have a nice cosy night. Sorry to hear you’ve been poorly x
What a lovely bunch of goodies you were sent! I do love debenhams but always end up spending a fortune!
Oh how lucky are you to get these!! I love Yankee candles, never smelt one I don’t like!
That all looks amazing!! I’m sure you felt better xx
I love your night in, it’s right up my alley, especially the biscuiteers treats!
I’m not sure why but there’s no words coming up in your post at all for me – just photos with gaps between them. The photos look great though and I love the sound of a Midsummers Night candle x x
It’s not very rock’n’roll but I don’t think that you can beat a good cuppa on a cosy night in! Those iced biscuits look totally delicious.
Lucky you! That cushion is just amazing. I love yankee candles, am currently burning the honey wax tart and it smells lovely!
What a lovely lot of goodies! I love Yankee Candles they smell gorgeous 🙂
I wish it hadn’t take me so long to discover that!
What a great night in. I love Yankee Candles and I haven’t come across that scent before but am a big fan of patchouli so I will have to look out for it – thank you!
I love a cosy blanket, movie and chocolates and my kiddies for company. Perfect.
Sounds like a great evening in!
You received a lovely package there! I like nights in with my man as well as nights in with friends but there always needs to be tea 🙂
I love the candle and cushion, but I also wouldn’t say no to the biscuits. So cute x
I love scented candles – they are really relaxing aren’t they and that cushion is so cute!
Glad you are feeling a little better and I hope your treats helped you have a cosy night. What a lovely box of goodies. I love that cushion and have had my eye on it for a while.
Wow! How lovely of Debenhams! I love the tea pot, think I might be developing a slight TP obsession x
I am so sorry you have been poorly, there is so much going around at the moment. Looks like you had a real treat from Debenhams, I love tea pigs.
A ‘cosy night in’ for me means a nice warm blanket, glass of wine, DVD and a box of maltesers! I do love that cushion 🙂 Sorry to hear you’ve been so poorly, hope you’re on the mend now.
Hugh Jackman and Yankee candles sounds about right for a cosy night in!
Get better soon x
Oooh thise biscuits how cute
You lucky thing, you! I’ve wanted a yankee candle for ages but can justify the expense. Maybe I should add one to my wishlist seeing as Mother’s Day is coming up!
Sounds like a wonderful cosy night in
such a lovely range of goodies
This pillow is super cute!
I wonder if my dogs would accept an addition like this
It’s cute isn’t it?!
Love the cushion and those biccies are amazing!
That cushion is amazing…. it reminds me of the tshirt with ‘Pugs not Drugs’ on it!
