Happy Christmas ya filthy animals!

As we edge ever closer to Christmas , it's very easy to get swept up in the lunacy as you question if four gifts for your niece is 'just right' or disgracefully few, but, and not to get preachy here BUT that's not what this time of year is about. Yes when you're little the hype is ALL about Santa but when you hit thirty obsessing over how many gifts under the tree are yours is somewhat less adorable.

At Christmas and New Year I like to take the time to reflect, heck I EMBRACE it! To really think about the year that has passed and what went well, what went not so well and all the glorious people that made the year special. For me, it was the year I launched my first company, got engaged, entered my thirties, won a IMAGE blog award and generally had my faith in humanity renewed. April and the Bear has been a roller-coaster of fun, stress, new-experiences and great joy but none of this would have been possible without the never-ending support of my incredible, one-of-a-kind bear , my glorious family & friends and all you wonderful folk who have supported this venture. From me to you, you have made all the difference.

THANK YOU.

Here's to a fun-filled and exciting 2015 - wishing you all a Happy & Safe Christmas.

April and the Bear is an award-winning DIY/ lifestyle and interiors blog. Dublin-based interior enthusiast/ blogger and entrepreneur Siobhan Lam shares her own experiences of doing up her home in Portobello ... be warned it involves head wounds, bruised shins, fire engines and never-ending mountains of dust. Don’t let this deter you though – we want to encourage and help other not-so-handy individuals to throw caution to the wind and pick up that sledge hammer, but to do so with slightly bent knees and a hard hat firmly on your head. 

 

April and the Bear blog attracts devoted readers from across the globe, we won 'Best Business Blog' at the Image.ie Blog Awards 2014 and were nominated for the 2014 The BOPS and The Blog Awards 2014 AND we were nominated for 'Best Online Shop' in the Irish Times Best Shops Competition 2015.
