We opted for a very slow Saturday today, slow, insular, self indulgent and just what was needed.

In contrast to yesterday I am very short on words this evening. I am still figuring out my emotions and where I want to go from here.
So instead, here is a little preview of something I have been working hard on, the new 3rd room of the @aliceinscandilandshop
My parents have given up a room of their house to allow me to extend. My Dad has once again worked tirelessly to bring my vision into reality.
Though I am more than upset today, I also know I am one of the very fortunate.

I'm voting @uklabour because I need these girls to know I wanted a better future for them. They will have to live the rest of their lives in the country we decide on today and quite honestly the thought of that brings me to tears.
This is so so important, it's so much more than Brexit, it's so much more than whether you like a jam making, freedom fighting, bearded man or not, he is but one man, but the promise of his party goes so far beyond that. Even if you don't agree with all their policies, or think they are possible, isn't the chance to have a go at it better than the certainty of a party who cares so little about us, the common people, that they are happy for children to go hungry, for people to have little to no hope of rising out of a disgusting spiral of poverty, mental health issues, avoidable deaths due to a ground breaking, enviable to the rest of the world health care service that is being picked apart and sold to the highest bidder.
Now is the chance to keep the discussion open, vote for the party that wants to include you in the future of our country, vote Labour now, even if you are still not sure, because that way you still have choices. Vote Conservative and that is it. You hand all the power to a collective of "people" who are so distanced from reality, so deaf to the suffering, struggle and grief of a huge percentage of our country. You hand all the power to a man who hides in a fridge instead of tackling the problems we are all facing.
Every vote for change matters.

I'm not actually here right now, but it's a more interesting view than my current one.

Do you try to make your Christmas decorations different each year or find comfort in repeating favourite setups?
The Eucalyptus wreath above the kitchen table has been repeated for the last 3 years and I can't wait to make it again soon ♡

I'm up and out early tomorrow, to collect fresh Eucalyptus for the shop.
I will definitely be bringing a bug bundle home with me, for wreath making and general scattering around the house, is it even Christmas without the scent of Eucalyptus wafting around?!

"Well, it's a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes...
...And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow."

I guess I could try and pass this off as a new photo, that I managed to get Hazel to sit in exactly the same position and that that artfully draped blanket is all that lies at the foot of the stairs.
The reality is the cat doesn't even look at me anymore, let alone listen and pose, the bottom of the stairs looks like a laundry basket threw up and if we're really going for full honesty here my children each have a £1 LOL advent calendar and they've never been happier!
So there. #instasham

One of my favourite snapshots from last year, perfect to welcome in December.
I'm both excited and terrified for the month ahead, the work/life balance us at it's most strained at this time of the year. I just hope I still find the time to create a little festive magic for my girls.

In the last week or so I have entered into an alternative universe, where there is no time to take a breath, just snap second decision making, 1 job straight to the next, tasks layering up, Christmas has well and truly arrived for me and my little business.
Also, in typical Alice fashion, I've decided to complicate matters by handing in my notice at my studio/ storage unit, because I will now be renting extra rooms from my parents and having the entire business setup under one roof. AND opening a 3rd room for the shop to expand into, with just the small task of a full makeover needed and a ridiculous self imposed deadline in place.
December is going to be very interesting around here!

Over on the blog tonight, Easy Reads for Under 10s.
Follow the link in my bio, or head to my stories.
I am definitely quite partial to a beautiful book or 20 and they feature here on my Instagram fairly regularly, as I love to share our new discoveries and old favourites.
Well, I've finally got around to getting some of them down in one place, a celebration of wonderful stories, magical illustrations and how these little gatherings of paper have helped to shape my own childhood and now that of my girls too.
I hope you enjoy, let me know what you think.

We're living in little pools of light this evening. The cold wind and driving rain can be heard, falling outside, but we are safe and warm in our nest.

What's the Autumn version of Spring Cleaning?
Anyway, I've started something at home and I'm at a tipping point where if I don't continue tomorrow we'll be right back to square one again by midweek.
I'm really struggling as a mum right now and I think that's important to say out loud. I am struggling.
Overall the girls have always been pretty easy going and amenable, they still are, for everyone else, but we've reached a phase where the world falls apart every half an hour at home and no one is coping particularly well when it does.
It seems a lot of you (especially those with a 6 year old in the mix) are going through something similar, so there is some form of comfort in the solidarity I've felt as a result of my stories today. Thank you.
Tomorrow is a new day and I'm determined it will be a more orderly, less chaotic one too.
This little scene is not within my home, but rather my home from home, the @aliceinscandilandshop

A spending Mum time with the kids, 40% moaning, 35% crying, 25% lovely time kind of Sunday.

An early night all round...

Please insert amusing, poetic caption. Cat, roaring fire, vintage furniture... you get the idea!
I'm feeling a little short on inspiration of late, it seems the better I'm doing in one aspect of life/ work, the less ideas and words I have for the other parts.
I'm trying to just go with it, but it does feel like a little, important part of me is missing and that's frustrating to say the least. .

I'm looking forward to a slow Saturday morning after a busy and emotional day/week. I may even break out the @kitchenaid_uk which I bought myself weeks and weeks ago, but has sat, unloved and still boxed, in the garage due to life getting in the way.
I have chocolate gingerbread on the mind, so I think we'll give it a go.
Wishing you a lovely weekend x
