Bestest Christmas Gift Ideas No.2 – Mice in matchboxes (but they’re all mine, mine, mine)

I just can’t tell you how sweet these Maileg Mice are. Sweet, charming, traditionally quirky and SO pretty you simply have to smile.maileg mouse in matchbox

Armstrong Ward is one of my favourite take-five-minutes stores, with too many yum things to tell you about here. But I just couldn’t resist these adorable Maileg mice when I spotted them, and felt a Bestest Gift Idea whoosh over me when he arrived in the post.

They totally live up to their picture – the mouse is soft and sweet, the bedding is soft and snuggable – and I want to climb into his box with him. Ella adores hers (*whispers* Mummys quite keen on her starting a  collection…ssshhh)

Do be sure to take your time and wander around Armstrong Ward lifestyle while you’re there – I’m very confident you’ll find at least one ‘Oooh’, and one sudden gasping stab of longing within its pages.
