Happy blogmas day number 5, today is the 5th of December and i am thoroughly enjoying this month so far and my advent calendars are really good especially the makeup one which i will do a blog about on the 12th day of blogmas.
So last year me and Dan decided to do each other a Christmas eve box as i see lots of people doing them for there kids and i wanted to get involved as i’m a big kid at heart, so we created one for ourselves last year and we are carrying on the tradition this year.
This is what i would suggest to put in a Christmas eve box for adults and limit how much you want to spend as you don’t want to get to carried away, i would suggest no more than £25 for this but it is entirely up to you as i am trying to do it on a budget.
Christmas eve box/ sack ideas for adults;
- New pyjamas
- Novelty Christmas socks
- Hot chocolate sachet
- marshmallows
- New Christmas mug
- Novelty Christmas jumper to wear for xmas day
- Popcorn
- Christmas film or movie
- Favourite sweets
- Alcohol (mini wine bottle) or mixer
- Face mask
- Nail polish
I put Dans treats in a christmasy gift bag and he put my treats in a sack with my name on that he got from eBay, there are lots of places to buy hessian sacks from of personalised bags/ boxes, i would suggest eBay or social media sites, this is my sack below already filled with some treats for me for this Christmas eve night.
Here are a few things i know i have got going in mine this year;
I have got new reindeer pjs from Sainsburys at £12, then some mint matchmakers and gingerbread latte popcorn, a flamingo Christmas jumper to wear Christmas day from Aldi at £7.99 they are new in today so get them before they sell out, some Christmas party photo props from home bargains at 99p and a new Christmas mug and a sachet of gingerbread latte.
You can pick a lot of these items up from supermarkets or Matalan, home bargains and b&m, its not to late to start a new tradition.
Thanks for reading x
