She added: ‘I love to make Christmas fun and exciting for my grandchildren which is what our Silly Santa edit is for!’ 

In addition to the festive gnomes, Carole’s Party Pieces website also sells Santa-shaped plates, inflatable snowmen and window stickers so that you can deck the halls in time for the festive season. 

In December last year, Carole hinted at her choice of Christmas gifts for her family as she said the ‘smallest presents can give the most enjoyment.’ 

She recalled her children Kate, Pippa and James ‘found flexi-figures totally absorbing when they were young.’

Carole shared the insight on Instagram and wrote: ‘I find that the smallest present can be the one that gives the most enjoyment and entertainment to children.’

She shared a picture of some Christmas products from the brand and said: ‘A good choice of stocking fillers can give one extra time, undisturbed in bed on Christmas Day. Invaluable!’

Kate’s mother also previously told how Christmas Eve is a ‘special occasion in her family’ after hinting at Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis’ excitement over a visit from Santa Claus. 

Posting on Instagram last year, she said children in her family ‘get sweetly excited by the idea that Father Christmas is coming, and really want to give him something’.
