Christmas is coming...

I hate to say it, but now that Halloween is over, Christmas is well and truly on the way - eeek!

Now, you can can check this one with Mr Red Bird, but I am sure that he will more than confirm that I have a bit of a soft spot-come-fetish for cushions. I don't know what exactly the appeal is, but all the fabulous designs, textures, fabrics and colours that just get me buying more than our little flat can cope with!
I bought this great one last Christmas for Mr Red Bird from Society6 - which he grew to love after I convinced him that it was a gift for him and not for 'the house'. He loves wearing his Icelandic jumper in the Winter months and foxes, so I thought this very apt!

Now...I have just come across these two beauties. One by one of my current favourite local artist, Charlotte Farmer for Ohh Deer & another by Alice Potter seen on Wolf & Badger, a London based lass. I now see that there may be a running theme with these cushions, in that they are all animal based....hmmm, what does that say about me?
