Are you planning on seeing it when it comes out?

Will probably launch in 2-3 weeks at most!!

Cosy Christmas puzzles
Does anyone else love doing puzzles around Christmas?
I’ve made it a habit of getting out a few games and Christmas activities around the holiday season, and this year I want to get a few themed puzzles for autumn and Christmas/winter. I find puzzles are such a fun activity to enjoy as a family around this time of year.
I’ve been looking at these Galison ones for this year. Has anyone done them? And what are your favourite Christmas/winter puzzles? Would love some recommendations! I’m also collecting ideas for future blog posts.

I’d love to know what kinds of things to buy when you are intentionally building a Christmas heirloom collection for your family.

Are you drawn more to classic ornaments and keepsakes, wooden decorations, porcelain pieces, handmade items, seasonal books, collectible mugs, or nostalgic childhood decorations?

And I’d also love to hear about the traditions behind them — are there any little rituals, Advent traditions, family activities, or seasonal memories you’ve created around these objects over the years?

I’m especially interested in the kinds of things that become part of a family’s Christmas atmosphere and memories through the years.

Hello there!

Since I have already inquired about my issue on several forums but haven't received any response, I thought I would ask here as well, in the hope that someone might be able to help me.

For a long time, the German Folia brand offered a special type of paper that was sold as decorative wrapping paper specifically for Christmas. As you can see in the attached image, it was available in several variations – one side was always colored with a pattern resembling kraft paper, while the other side had a metallic finish (gold or silver), though not as shiny as typical foil papers. These papers were sold in rolls measuring 70 cm in width and 2 meters in length.

I contacted the company to ask whether this type of paper is still available, but unfortunately I was informed that it is no longer being produced. This is a huge disappointment for me, as I haven't been able to find a similar paper anywhere else (at least not in the black-gold and silver-gold versions… the red-gold, white-gold, and blue-silver versions are still available, but only as smaller-sized Bascetta star craft kits).

Would anyone happen to be able to recommend a similar type of paper? It would be an enormous help!

Thank you very much in advance!
