Making a messy gingerbread house, decorating our tiny disco tree, eating clementines by the dozen, doing intense Radio Times highlighting, I LOVE CHRISTMAS.
Hello!
I'm Kristina and I live by the sea in Brighton and work as a freelance illustrator. I dig cats, sequins, the internet, Nancy Mitford, cream teas, the Pre-Raphaelites and naps among other things.
This blog is a medley of drawings, photos and anything else I find pleasing to the eye.

I really want to make a gingerbread house but hate gingerbread. I wonder if I should make it then just take it home to my mum à la nursery school.

Lovely festive photographs :) your gingerbread house is amazing! So cute x

I absolutely adore that you have a BRIGHT PINK Christmas tree.
The fact that it has snowed already is probably a nice addition to the spirit as well, isn’t it?

Where does one even find a pink Christmas tree? We were really lazy this year and bought a $20 light up outdoor tree. It’s basically a plastic spiral-y cone of lights.

That gingerbread house is so great!
I just received a print of your Royal Gala painting that I had ordered for a Christmas gift; a bit late, but I don’t even mind because everything looks so superb! I do wish I had put in a note asking for a note for my friend as she’s such a fan, but oh well. Just wanted to say that the packaging and everything is wonderful, I love your work.

You may like to check it out because I had so much fun doing it. It’s got a bit of everything fashion, interiors, food, travel spots – hopefully you will find something in there that you like.
Thanks for providing me with such great entertainment!
