Christmas haul! | Blogmas

The winter smells, the brewing tea, the cosy shawls and warm hugs. There are a lot of things to love about this season. I got my hands on many such things and decided to do a mini christmas haul! Here are some things i am loving at the moment.

01. THE STARBUCKS CHRISTMAS MUG

What signals the onset of christmas better than sipping hot chocolate in that ever famous red cup. I'm not an ardent fan of Starbucks though (my initial experiences unsatisfactory) but reading about this festive cup on other blogs, made me crave to get my hands on one! 





2. SWEET FRAGRANCES

Walking around the mall one day, my nose decided to sniff this shop from way over there! (makes hand gestures to illustrate the distance between my nose and the shop). Rosemoore, is a fragrance shop all the way from UK. The scents are beautiful, perfect for keeping as well as gifting. We tested out the Vanilla, Lavender and Egyptian Cotton fragrances. Clearly my favourite ended up being the Egyptian cotton considering the bottle is hallway empty already!






3. THIS SWEATER!

This sweater is on this list for no other reason than the fact that i absolutely love it and managed to score it in the cheapest price possible! 300 Rs. for this beauty and I'm addicted. I try and wear it everywhere and with everything.







4. BRONZE ORANGE LIPSTICKS

 This lipstick was the most random buy of my life ever. I don't wear lipsticks, so this review comes more from my sister's brain than mine. It's a lovely colour and when i do wear it, i like that it's more nude than solid. Random best buy!
5. COSY SHOE SOCKS

 These are my favourite!!!! Hence the excess of exclamations. I've converted my sister and she too now prances around in a pair. The red is super festive and they are the perfect combination of fleecy and warm. I might just go ahead and buy a couple more. Only a few…






Hope you liked what i like this season. Here is a buyers guide for those interested to know what and where i got these things from...


  • Vanilla, Lavender and Egyptian Cotton fragrances : Rosemoore, Select Citywalk, New Delhi

MAKE IT | SPRAY PAINTED JAR CANDLES (part 02)

In a previous post , we made beautiful spray painted heart jars. Here is part two of the tutorial where I turn those same jars into decadent smelling candles. You need: Candle wax of your choice Candle wick Mason Jar (Follow the tutorial here ) Fragrance Oil  Before you begin, be sure you have the appropriate type and size of the wick. If your jar is wide, make sure wick is wide enough in diameter to burn optimally. And, if its narrow and long, make sure the length of the wick is sufficient enough.  Measure out the amount of wax needed. For this project, I melted the wax in a make-shift double boiler made from two metal containers—one small and one large. Fill water in the large container. Put the wax in the smaller container and place it in the larger one. Melt the wax on low to medium-low heat. Never leave melting wax unattended! While the wax is melting, secure your wick to the bottom of your mason jar. Dip the end in the melting wax and a...

THE MIXTAPE PROJECT / 01

I've been working on this series idea for a while now and finally it's here! The Mixtape Project, a series to document interesting people, their music choices and their personal quirk. Here is my first guest for today... MAYANK KUMAR / DELHI If you could pick one, which superhero would you be?  I don't really follow the superhero concept but if I had to, I guess i'd pick Batman. That's simply because of his sharp mind and his ability to solve humongous issues with just his mere intellect. What would your DJ name be?  Can't imagine myself behind a console wearing earphones bigger than my face. But I guess 'Max' would do? Or just M? What's your favourite joke?  A jealous haryanavi man opened his own momos shop right next to the famous 'Yo! China' and named it 'Yo! Bhi China'. What's the weirdest nickname people call you? Mickey. My first birthday cake had a Mickey Mouse on it. And that's where the name ...
