Shimmering season & a giveaway...





As we creep closer to the mid winter solstice - days are getting shorter and darker.
At this time of year I like to fill my home with candles and have fairy lights on to brighten every room.  To bring some shimmer in the gloom.

Recently, I was kindly sent a set of Cable and Cotton lights.  If you haven't heard of them - you should go and look at their site.
Beautiful strings of cotton balls which attach to white lights - when lit they give off a happy warm glow.
For me, the fun part is choosing which colour ball to have.
Gosh that was such a hard decision, I can tell you.  Backwards and forwards - pink or not pink!
I am so pleased with the finished look... they really brighten up my shelves in the lounge.  I just need to attach some little cup hooks to the under side of the shelves to hang them properly, as it looks a little cluttered up there.

Thank you Cable and Cotton - I absolutely LOVE my new lights!

Cable and Cotton have kindly given a me a set to giveaway to a lucky Littlegreenshed reader!
Perfect for the up coming season!
There many ways to enter!


a Rafflecopter giveaway Giveaway ends Sunday 11th November!
Good luck!
