On the tenth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

Let's get this festive party started with some... dancing! Show off your moves to your family and friends with Wii Dance Party Pop, £25 and fill your father's sock with a Dancing Dad, £6.

When no swans are available, you have to make do with ugly ducklings. Fear not, there isn't an ugly duckling in sight on next.co.uk, only pretty fluffy ones, including a cute, spotty duck baby sleepsuit, £7. Or you can opt for the comfy and warm duck boots, from £16 - perfect for this freezing weather!

There are various types of rings on www.next.co.uk - for your fingers or your home. Choose between gold napkin rings £7 for your table or for you, two-tone rings from £18... tricky!

Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.


Talking of French hens, there is a set of four Porcelain Mugs with cute chicken motifs on www.next.co.uk (£7). I have recently bought a set of mugs from the Next shop in Cambridge (pictured below) but didn't see the fowl ones on the shelves. With the festive season coming, it's handy to have more mugs to offer hot drinks...

Pretty vintage stackable mugs from Next, my latest purchase

I love Xmas and couldn't resist taking part in the Next  blogging challenge! So here is my first icon and the corresponding lyrics...

 On the first day of Christmas, 
my true love sent to me 
A partridge in a pear tree. 

My personal challenge is to find something connected with this verse and as Next doesn't sell food or partridge-themed merchandise, I managed to find a lovely picture of pears, £15 for a set of three. Click here to see it.
