Wishlist Wednesday - My Christmas List

Today I have put together a rather eclectic wishlist Wednesday with items I would gratefully accept for Christmas!  Some of these are handmade, some or not and some are for the benefit of others...enjoy.

My Craft Gossip-inspired Etsy Wishlist

This week's wishlist features some amazing and fun creations I have been in love with for quite some time.  And no, they're not all for me, which is why this collection is so eclectic!

Be Rational Tshirt by Signature Tshirts

Rococo Earrings by Realisation Creations

Strawberry Bow Clips by Lilprincessbow

Paper Roses by MissIsa

Most of these items are gifts I would love to give to my family members in thanks of their support for me and my little business.  Craft Gossip is offering bloggers a chance to win $100 worth of Etsy goodies such as my choices, so I may yet be able to deliver!  If you are interested, you can find the competition details here.

Wishlist Wednesday - Stationery

Yes, I know, it's Thursday and I'm posting a wishlist Wednesday.  Can you tell what kind of week I have had?!?!  Anyway, I did a spot of online window shopping to distract myself and have come up with a list of stationery items I adore from some of my favourite Australian sellers.  I will be adding these finds to my Christmas wishlist should any of my family members ask...hint, hint to all family members who read this blog.    ;)

Wishlist Wednesday - One for the Geeks!

Today's wishlist Wednesday was put together in honour of my beloved husband Malcolm.  He is a maths, computer and theology geek, which is very helpful at times, and these are items I would love to give to my geek boy, he he.

Incorrect Maths Mug

Pi T-shirt

Binary Code Cuff Links

Robot Messenger Bag

Wednesday Wonderfuls - Chainmaille

I have always been rather fascinated by chainmaille jewellery and its creation, and even more so now that I have discovered a multitude of chainmaille items which are not jewellery (nor armour, for that matter)!  Here are just some of the fun and beautiful items I found for sale on Etsy.

Padparascha Romanov Chainmaille Bracelet

Chainmaille Wrapped Marble Keychain

Rainbow Sphere Cell Phone Charm

Rainbow Chainmaille Bag

Wishlist Wednesday - Kitchen Appliances

I am currently shopping around for a new oven and cooktop to replace my current oven/cooktop which is on its last legs, so today's wishlist Wednesday highlights some kitchen appliances with which I am in love.

 The Blanco 75cm stainless steel oven

The Andi 70cm gas cooktop

The AEG-Electrolux 75cm gas cooktop

Wishlist Wednesday - Something for Little Girls

Today's wishlist Wednesday is full of items I think my daughters would love.  It's kind of an eclectic mix since they're quite "girly" but also love cars, monsters and Lego.

Wishlist Wednesday With a Difference...

Every Christmas and on birthdays my family and I like to joke about who is going to receive a pig or a goat that year.  No, we don't live on farms and we're not into "alternative" pets, the joke stems from the way my dad advertised a charitable cause at church one Christmas.

While I LOVE to receive presents for my birthday, at Christmas time and generally all year round (and who doesn't?), I often need to be reminded that, living in Australia, I am very blessed with so many material possessions.  Therefore, this week's Wishlist Wednesday highlights some charitable "gifts" people can purchase which help those in need in areas dear to my heart.

Piglet from World Vision (I couldn't resist, he he)

Sewing Machine from Compassion Australia

Village Health Worker from Tear Australia

Wishlist Wednesday

My husband had a minor panic attack the other night about not having any present ideas for my  birthday (in May) and then freaked out even more when he remembered that Mother's day is just two weeks prior to my birthday.

So I thought I would give him some hints by creating my first ever Wishlist Wednesday!  I have gone with a peacock theme as I am partial to peacocks and their beautiful feathers.  Enjoy!
