later and later...

I very nearly decided to leave today's drawing until tomorrow, as it is late ... I've been changing, tweaking and adding listings to the shop!

However, I decided to just buck up and draw quickly - not my best but I love the smells of Christmas - the tree, mulled wine, gingerbread and all those warm, cosy smells - this seemed to be a good way to symbolise that.

Drawn yesterday but I forgot to upload them here!

Better late than never...

Getting the decorations out by Alice Draws The Line

Here's my #illo_advent drawing for today - rather late - it hasn't yet made it to the scanner but it's quite nice to see it on the table for a change. I'm yet to actually get the decorations out, but it was nice to peep into the box and find this old friend to draw.

Yum!

Lebkuchen drawing by Alice Draws The Line

Sadly I know no German but do love these delicious gingery biscuits. I'm planning on making some again this year, but I confess I bought a packet in order to draw them! (making them first would have taken forever to get around to doing the drawing!). 
(If I've got this German terribly wrong please let me know!)

Chocolate Coins by Alice Draws The Line

...or perhaps that's just me! (or maybe I should buy some by a known brand instead of the first shiny bag of coins I see!

Here are the first, second and third days of my advent calendar, I'll try and post daily from now on!
