A little bit of festive news from me...

Well Elves, I’ve been sprinkling my Christmas magic for the last five years, but it’s time for me to say goodbye and leave you in the oh-so-sparkly hands of Elf Narin who will continue to deliver your Secret Elves news! I’m sad to be saying farewell, but it’s not without one final festive message from me. With just NINE weeks to go until the big day, there’s already so much to get excited about, so make yourself a hot chocolate with extra squirty cream and enjoy this week’s jingle-tastic newsletter. Love, Elf Amy x

US store arrives in the UK right in time for Christmas

Pottery Barn always reminds me of that classic Friends episode, ‘The One With the Apothecary Table’ where Rachel tells Phoebe she’s picked up furniture at a flea market, instead of the popular retailer. This autumn, the American home retailer finally arrived in the UK and has now launched its iconic Christmas looks - and I’m very much here for it!

There’s three distinctive collections - Christmas in the Country, Nostalgic Classics and Evergreen Holiday. I’m putting the Gingerbread House Light-Up Doormat on my wishlist!
