Dear Father Christmas…

Karen Brotherton


As the Christmas season rapidly approaches, I’ve started thinking about the little touches that will make my home feel even cosier this year. I want to fill my space with gifts that add charm, comfort, and a bit of extra cheer. Here's my Christmas wish list for the home—a mix of practical essentials and a few indulgent luxuries to make this time of year even more magical.

Frances Savage Egg Cup Set - Toast

The perfect egg cup doesn’t exist… Until now! This set is ideal for Sunday morning eggs and soldiers.

Bellamy Jean – Sekhmet – Partnership Editions

Obsessed with everything Bellamy Jean creates. Her aesthetic perfectly aligns with The Living Quarter’s vibe, yet I still haven’t made a purchase. Definitely putting her on my Christmas list!

Freyja Lee – Tears of Gold Large Platter – Partnership Editions

Sunday-best ceramics at their finest. Would I actually use these? Probably not. But they’d look gorgeous displayed on a shelf in the kitchen. 

 

Half Moon Face Christmas Ornament – Choosing Keeping

Celestial perfection for the Christmas tree. Best hung up high, safely out of reach from little hands. 

 

Dandelion Paperweight – Twenty Twenty One

I've always wanted a dandelion paperweight, and it’s been on my list for ages. Even more so now that I know about how Hafod Grange makes them! Magical.

Tin Decoration Neptune – The Shop Floor Project

In an ideal world, I’d make these myself. But who has the time? Especially when they’re as stunning as this! 

 Dear Father Christmas…

Tin Decoration King Crab – The Shop Floor Project

Just… perfection. The kind of decoration that stays hanging from the fireplace all year long.

Bamboo Tray – Studio Ham

For serving up cocktails with flair, inspired by that recipe from the cocktail book your cool aunt gave you.

Siren in the Sand print – Brittany Ferns

I am so drawn to everything that Brittany Ferns creates, but I have a soft spot for her magical mermaids!

 

Jade Panel Tumbler - Mosser Glass

I’ve been on the hunt for vintage jade glass, but these beauties from Mosser Glass are just as ideal. 

 Dear Father Christmas…

Fish Candlestick – Celia Wood Ceramics

Playful and perfect for a cozy winter fireplace.

 Rowan Macgregor

I always miss the drop for Rowan Macgregor’s pieces, but a Christmas miracle would be someone setting an alert for me so I can finally own one of these beauties.

Everyday Santoku – Maldon – All Day Goods

Perfect for everyday use, and beautiful to look at. I need the whole set.
