Disclosure – we were gifted a rug from The Rug Retailer in exchange for featuring it on my blog. I expect you are fed up of hearing that ‘Christmas won’t be normal’. I am nearly as fed up of this phrase as I am with the word ‘unprecedented’. 2020 has been a nightmare year but…
I’m not sure where my love of gingerbread came from but it’s something I love to be surrounded by, especially at Christmas.
