Christmas Spiced Salt


I saw this cute idea on a Dutch cooking blog earlier this year and re-created the concept at my own '09 Christmas table, with some modifications! I combined Star Anise, Pink Peppercorns and Murray-River sea salt in a pistachio-coloured 'MUD' salt dish. Very Festive! MUD is an awesome Australian ceramic brand that is stocked all over the globe. www.mudaustralia.com

Eleni's Cookies NYC


A NYC must-see at Christmas!

Eleni's Cookies has two enchanting NYC locations (Chelsea & Manhattan) The brand's attention to detail is second-to-none & their packaging is drop-dead gorgeous. Please support this amazing business if ever you visit the area (cookie pre-orders are a MUST). www.elenis.com

Christmas in Wonderland


This year's Christmas theme was 'Christmas in Wonderland'. I decorated the table with small toadstools and shiny red apples & kept the colour palette traditional; red, white and green.

A few sprigs of real holly, striped bon-bons & candy canes completed the look.
