What I Want For Christmas

Hopefully no one judges me too hard for making a pot like this, but its the first day of December, and I’m out Christmas shopping all day, so it feels valid. (Yes, I wrote this yesterday so I wouldn’t have to blog today. Because, like I said, I’m shopping.)

I spend a lot of time every year figuring out what to get everyone for Christmas. Its a long process that I actually really enjoy! I try to be creative and resourceful. It can’t always be perfect, but its fun to try! And just for fun, I thought I’d share what I want for Christmas!

Feels like I need to say that I’m not asking anyone for these things! This isn’t a plea for people to buy me gifts. I just thought it would be fun to share! Some things are reasonable and others suuuper aren’t. I keep a running list as desires come to me, so here is the bulk of it, in no particular order.

A lash perm and tint! I’ve always wanted to try that out. My lashes are sad, short, and straight.

Pampered Chef waffle sticks! I only just learned about those things and they look so awesome!

Mukluks! Mine are five years old and are starting to come apart.

Super High Rise Wunder Unders from Lululemon. I love my pair of high waisted Wunder Unders, but I love the sound of the super high waisted ones even more!

The “Sultry” eye shadow palette by Anastasia Beverly Hills. SO pretty!

Also the “Extra Spice” palette by Makeup Revolution

You guys know that entrance mat that says something like “Just so you know, there are lots of kids in there?” I have been tagged in that Facebook post more times than I can count! I should probably finally get one…

A plastic lipstick organizer for inside my makeup dressers.

A pop socket for my phone.

A piano tuner kit so I can work on my piano slowly at home rather than paying for tunings.

Bosch dough mixer. (This is one of the vastly unattainable ones. SO expensive)

A curling wand.

Charmed Aroma candles, because they’re fun.

This sweatshirt!! https://www.facebook.com/commerce/products/2206397189387368/ You got this, mama!

A robot vacuum thats tall enough to eat Cheerios.

Lush sleepy lotion.

A gratitude journal.

Microblading! (Another unattainable one. SO expensive!)

Hopefully no one thinks I’m super duper selfish now. I know there are WAY more important things that aren’t tangible or wrapped up under the tree. I LOVE those things. I don’t care too much about presents, but I think we’re lying if we say theres nothing that we want that could be boxed, wrapped, and put under a tree!

So now you know about me! Whats on your wish list? Share a thing or two in the comments!

That’s a great list. In all honesty I make lists of my wants every so often just for fun. I feel like getting it out there just sometimes is enough “shopping” therapy for me.
Also I have to differentiate between what I want just for me and what I want for the kids or to make things easier with the kids cuz those are 2 very different lists.
We were blessed with a Bosch when we got married and it’s awesome but if we didn’t already have one would be totally hard to justify buying 😬
My list (right now) would have to be:
– more joggers cuz they’re the comfiest pants I’ve ever worn and you can never have too many pairs
– gym membership (and the time to go)
– new thermal mug
– king sized duvet
– new sheets
– a Chi straightener
– Keurig
– new couch
– DSLR camera
– a fence
– a puppy
– a new mattress
– everything Norwex
– moccasins
And the list could go on 🙂 but I think this comment is long enough

I love your list!! It would appear you’re ready for a whole new bed! Lol! I can vouch for the chi straightener! I got one YEARS ago and its finally starting to give up. I dread the cost of replacing it! As for joggers, I’ve seen them online but have never purchased any! Which ones are the best? So many good things on your list 🙂 Good for you for making one! I know it feels kind of wrongish 😉

Deanne

Haha. It does feel wrong but if I make a big long list like this it looks overwhelming and expensive so it actually helps me not buy things as much unless absolutely necessary.
Yeah we don’t need a new bed but it would be nice 🙂
I’ve just bought my joggers from Ardene. The last couple winters they’ve gone on sale for 50% off so I buy a couple pairs at a time so that I have enough to live in for after the baby comes 🙂

Oh goodness, you’re not being presumptuous! I’ll definitely look into an app. I love things that are user friendly! And you’re totally right, I’ve used tuning apps for guitar and ukulele, too! A piano app only makes sense 🙂 Great idea!

Noticed that a lash tint and lift are on your list and wanted to say that I went for my first lift and tint just a couple weeks ago and would definitely recommend!!!
