All I Want For Christmas

By Dawn Sailors In Window Shopping

Well since Dania put together her list of demands wish list yesterday, I thought I’d have some fun and do my own list today too. I don’t have nearly as many expensive pairs of shoes on my list, but here goes. Consider this my letter to Santa.

Red retro wall clock
I have been eying this beauty for a few months now, every time I visit Target. I love the retro look and can just picture it above my kitchen sink.

Shark steam mop
I’ve grown quite tired of my swifter and now that we’ve added even more hard surface floors, I’d love an easier way to keep them really clean. The vac and mop would be awesome, but I’m not picky…

Modern wine rack
For some reason I have about 8 bottles of wine taking up a lot of fridge space right now. I’d love to have an actual bottle holder, but the problem is that most wine racks I see seem to be very Tuscan themed, which just isn’t my style. I like this modern twist. They used to sell it at The Afternoon (where I bought my beloved hand lamp for Vera’s room), but I couldn’t find it on their website anymore, so I may be out of luck.

Toms shoes
I’ve been wanting a pair of Toms for years, but every time I think I’m going to buy some, I just can’t decide which ones I love the most! Such a dilemma. And when I can’t make up my mind, I don’t do anything at all. I would love it of someone would just decide for me and take the pressure off!

There are also three books I’ve have my eye on for a few months now. I’d love any of them for Christmas this year. In no particular order, they are Design Sponge at Home by Grace Bonney (one of my favorite bloggers!), Wildwood by Colin Meloy and illustrated by Carson Ellis, and Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs. I’ve heard great things about each!

Ok that’s it. There are a few other practical things I could throw in, like a new hand-vac, DVD player or television mount, but the above pretty much sums up my wish list this year. I know its close to the big day, but I’ve dropped a few hints, so hopefully I’ll be unwrapping at least a few of these soon! Anything special you’re hoping to get??
