1) Its A Wonderfull Life - a true classic even after all these years!
2) Family Stone - quite a modern one and always makes me cry!
3) Scrooged - I adore Bill Murray
4) National Lampoons Christmas Vacation - makes me cry laughing every time.
5) Love Actually
6) Nativity - a new one we saw it last year at the cinema a few days before Christmas if you haven't seen it yet a fab family Christmas film!
7) Meet Me In St. Louis - Judy Garland need I say more!
8) Gavin & Stacey Christmas special - technically not a film but Gav & Stace = class!
9) Royle Family Christmas Special - where Denise goes into labour love the scene with her dad in the bathroom.
10) Muppet Christmas Carol - who does not love the muppets!
Here are some creations I have made lately after swearing that I wouldn't be buying any more fabric until the new year I did have a slip, well two actually. However, in my defence I was going to Abakhan to buy some Christmas goodies for the little one and I didn't actually notice that some fabric had been cut and sneaked its way into my basket until I got home. That is what I told hubby and is the story I am sticking to!
First up is a chocolate houndstooth handbag,
and here is some of the brooches I have been making whilst cuddled up in front of the tv,
So let me know what you favourite Christmas films are just in case I have missed any!

As far as I'm concerned you included the best films. Meet Me in St Louis - I just love the opening scenes! Love Actually - love it, 'actually'! Muppet Christmas Carol - the best Muppet movie and great music!!

I'm with you in loving the Muppet Christmas Carol.
I also used to love the BBC2 tradition of having a spooky ghost story on the TV, late on Christmas Eve. They don't seem to have done it quite so much in the last few years, mind you. However, a particularly scary one they showed was called The Railwayman ..... only scary by suspence I might add, but scary non the less :)
Ooops ... got the name wrong. It was called The Signal Man and apparently, it is a short story by Charles Dickens.

I still have an advent calendar and I am 33! A traditional one without chocolate too!
My favourite Christmas films are
Father Christmas
A Christmas Carol
The Box Of Delights (ok not a film but I watched it every year at primary school and made my husband buy it for me a couple of years ago!)
The Flight Before Christmas (that's right, Flight, not Night!)
3 Christmas's
To be honest I haven't watched a lot of the 'traditional' movies, but hopefully with the start of Sky Movies Christmas on Wednesday I can make amends!
You have to include Elf! We watch it every year, just a shame my 3 year old is a bit too young to 'get' it or we'd watch it with him.
LOVE the new broaches, Elise, but I can feel my folksy finger twiching, I hope the brown with a polka dot button is not taken cos it's so gorgeous I need it! I'll order later when son is in bed xx
