So here I am again Housekeepers, continuing on my mission to get some of my existing downloads converted for the Kindle, so I can both reach a wider audience and concentrate on creating as much fresh and inspirational new content as possible in 2016… This time it’s The Christmas Countdown that is now available on the Kindle. A thirty day, rather whimsical, puttery take on counting the days down to Christmas and quite the most perfect literary accessory to my current 100 Day Countdown to the festivities… You can buy The Christmas Countdown on Amazon.Com for $2.99 here and on Amazon.Co.Uk for £1.99here…

Too much life goes on in this house. Remnants of birthdays and homework clutter every surface. A pretty pile of Greengate tea-towels here, a cardboard car with working wheels there. And so much more. A bag full of Richards clothes in the…
Oh dear. How recklessly often my day is interrupted by a call from school summoning me to collect my little munchkin, and so another day is lost to a litany of warm drinks and cosy hugs and though the worker inside of…

Saturday afternoon came and went and I was pretty normal and relatively well behaved. Not a care in the world. Until I was abducted by aliens. Or something. And took it out on you. You all know what I’m talking about. I…
And so another week whispers by. You are seven days older and a bit of you has floated away. You know this is true because now you live outside yourself. You watch your hands fluttering across the waxy handsome face of your…

Dear Alison, I am looking forwards to planning Christmas with your help once again 🙂 I want to email you about the vintage housekeepers group, but can’t find your email anywhere on your site now. Have you deleted it? Or am I being blind?
Really looking forward to the Christmas countdown. Taking one of your ideas from last year, I bought some Christmas scented pinecones in a net bag in the sales and put it in my ottoman. I have been adding things such as festive napkins and the smell that greets me as I open the lid to add things is wonderful. Thank you for the inspiration! Oh, and I’m already stockpiling the Christmas spice Zoflora!!
Christmas spice Zoflora? I need me some of that!!!! I’m loving the chance to get these on Kindle. I’ve got my Christmas planner ready and I’m all set for a beautiful, vintage and very Brocante-d Christmas!
Hi Alison, I’m loving the 100 days countdown. The 30 days one is good but 100 days to enjoy Christmas is even better. I just adore the pictures you are using. They are taking me right back to my childhood in the 70’s. I still have a little red flock covered bambi from then that I hang on my tree every year. Lovely memories. Keep up the good work. Alison C
