The house was filled with merry laughter, chinking glasses, and christmas songs from bygone days.
We were dressed up all sparkly and festive*
We dined by candlelight in my studio, transformed into a winter wonderland of silver and white.
We feasted on a roast, sweet mince pies, handmade truffles and pints of steaming mulled wine.
We shared stories and secret santa presents by the open fire.
There's nothing quite as cosy as a Christmas dinner party with friends and festive fun on a cold winter's night.
How are you keeping warm this winter?
*see, I'm working on self-portrait bravery!
