If you read my Bunny Baubles Turns 3 post in it’s entirety (if you did, congrats, that was a novel of a post) you may have seen my note that I’m headed to England tomorrow!! Kyle and his family were nice enough to invite me along, and I couldn’t be more excited. I plan to share some of my travel adventures with you over on my Instagram, so make sure to follow along!

The things we have scheduled include:

A classic afternoon tea at The Orangery at Kensington Palace
A Liverpool v. Manchester City soccer, or football, game in Liverpool on new year’s eve
A tour of Stonehenge and Bath
An airbnb sort of setup in a gorgeous London apartment for the majority of our stay

Things that we want to see include:

The National Gallery
Th British Museum
Big Ben, Tower Bridge, Westminster Abby, + all other classic London sites (get ready for a photo of me in a phone booth!)
Winchester Castle
The Beatles Museum in Liverpool

Things we want to do:

Drink mulled wine at a Christmas market and a beer in a pub
Go ice skating in Hyde Park
Have fish and chips and all of the Indian food
Visit Notting Hill (so many pretty homes!)
Maybe a day trip to Paris… might save this since it would be really great to go for an extended period of time some day

Is there anything we are missing? I have been working on getting recommendations from friends on how to get around the city, must see sites, and restaurants, but I would love to hear your tips!

Outfit Details: DIY Flannel Blanket Scarf || Old Sweater (similar sweater)- Gap || Tote – Longchamp || Sunglasses (similar cat eye sunglasses)- Miu Miu

Y’all, Bunny Baubles officially turns 3 today! Three years ago I thought it would be fun to start-up a blog to share sewing and baking projects with my friends and family. Little did I know I would be turning this into my part-time (basically second full-time) job and getting paid to do it!

Two things make me really excited about today’s DIY:

One of my favorite Christmas movies is Elf, and I feel that this quote just really embodies the movie and also my diet.
I added this quote to my PJ’s using only paper, spray adhesive, and fabric paint!! That’s right, no Silohouette, no Cricut, and no iron on letters. That, my friends, is a cheap way to screen print.

With Christmas less than two weeks away I have been packing in as many peppermint flavored, red and green themed, twinkly light adorned activities as I can! This past weekend my friend had a Christmas party and I (naturally) volunteered to make dessert. I thought, what would be cuter than some Santa whoopie pies?

With Christmas being only weeks away, I’m sure you’ve started your decorating. You pull out all of your glitzy garlands, scented candles, and pine needle centerpieces out of storage, set them up around the house, and then take a look to see that something is missing. Though finding old treasures from past years is fun, it’s always exciting to add something new into the mix.

Christmas gift coupon codes

I know you are all scrambling to find the perfect gifts for everyone on your list right now, so I thought I would try to help you out! There are always those people who have everything or don’t ever want to give you any ideas, and I’ve found that the best way to buy for them is to give them an experience. Some of my favorite collaborations I’ve done with Bunny Baubles have been with the three companies below who are all offering discounts to my readers! Check them out, and good luck shopping!

Craft a Brew – 10% Off with the code BUNNYBREW until 12/12/2016, plus $5 shipping on orders over $50 – Why are guys always the hardest to shop for? Brothers, dads, and boyfriends give me the most trouble, but I can assure you a beer brewing kit will put a smile on their face! Oh, and guess what, they are making WINE KITS NOW. So now you have gifts for your girlfriends too.
HelloFresh – $35 Off with the code BUNNYBAUBLES35 – People love food. Most people love cooking too. Many people hate to shop and don’t have a lot of time. HelloFresh food boxes are the answer! This is such a fun gift for a friend or family member, especially someone in college or a new chef.
Degustabox – 50% off plus a bonus item with DEGUSTABUNNY – Have someone in your life who truly has everything? Send them a Degustabox packed full of unique goodies that surprises them at their door! This is great because it’s all non-perishable food so it can sit on someone’s doorstep who isn’t expecting it, and there are always items that you will have never tried before.

I’m going to be honest with y’all, I already finished my holiday shopping! I am pretty thrilled because I have a big trip coming up and have so much to wrap up for the blog before the holidays hit so it was pretty crucial I got the shopping part out of the way. I plan to take a 2.5 week trip using only a carry on suitcase and a personal item… wish me luck, and I’ll update you on more details soon!

The Best of Bunny Baubles November 2016

Published on December 6, 2016February 2, 2017 by juliavalley4 Comments

It’s December and it’s cold and it’s Christmas time! These are all things I’m very excited for.

November was a month filled with really happy moments – Thanksgiving with my family, celebrating birthdays with friends, traveling to Austin after what felt like months of planning, and I finally committed to buying a new car! Usually December has me a little overwhelmed with Christmas parties and all, but with holiday shopping finished and so many big decisions and moments happening in November, I am actually finding myself really relaxed.

What have I got planned? Christmas movies, baking, holiday cheer in the form of every hot beverage known to man, and being with the people I love the most. If you ask me, I am really blessed to have that to-do list set. I also have some exciting Bunny Baubles work happening in the background that I am beyond excited to share with you all – stay tuned!

Before you take a hop, skip, and a leap into December, make sure you didn’t miss any November fun! Plus, check out my gift guides that will help you with any last minute present hunting.
