Secret Santa at work is always so much fun! I have a wonderful time thinking up surprises and gifts for my co-workers. I love decorating their desk, bringing goodies and planning what to get them for Christmas. This year, I was a little stumped because I had to play Secret Santa for a boy! It’s easier when it’s a girl, you just need to put up ornaments and lights and it will make her happy. But for a boy, I wasn’t sure what sort of decor or surprise would bring a smile to his face. Thankfully with a little help from his…
London lights up like magic during December, it seems the city brings out it’s best for Christmas. One of my favorite attractions in London during this time is Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park – a Christmas fair which is open during the months of November to January.

I am sure most of you have already decorated your Christmas tree. I typically do it in the second week of December, so I will be setting up mine over the weekend. I am still thinking about what theme I want to choose for decorating my tree this year. Should I make it multi-colored or two toned? Should I opt for a vintage look or a modern, contemporary one? I am still going through all these options in my head and hope to finalize something soon! Meanwhile, here are some pictures of my Christmas tree decor from last year. I chose a gold and white theme and added a pop of red via the…
