With 4 rubbermaid tubs FULL of Christmas stuff outside & a small house that only 2 people live in, I told myself I wouldn't be buying ANY new Christmas decorations this year!--It's actually allowing me to have more money to spend on others, which is something I really enjoy! It hasn't been easy, but I've stuck to it...so far! I just know that I don't need anything else, because I don't even have room for all the things that I already have!--So, no point in buying even MORE!
But that doesn't mean I can't make a few new decorations! Here a few things I've seen around town, or on Pinterest that I thought I might could whip up if I have any extra time between now & Christmas! =)I thought I might be able to make this with my Silhouette using vinyl on a painted canvas.
Oh how I love wreaths, especially making them!--I have a HUGE swag on my front door, but I'd love to make something like this just to hang inside.
Simple painted canvas...but how cute?!
I had heard about the "101 days of Christmas" a while back but never gave it much thought. But once I started thinking about ALL the things that has to be done in preparation for Christmas & all the traditions that I want to start & continue for my little Ryder man, I knew this would help me stay organized! I may be like 76 days late...or MORE, but oh well! =) I ran across it on Pinterest & wanted to share it with my lovely readers! You can download the printables you want individually for free, or for 4 easy dollars (that's 3 trips to Sonic for me...) you can download ALL of the printables in ONE click!--the ease was worth 4 bucks to me! ;)
I'm hoping to make a binder out of my printables & start a new section each year. That way, excluding Christmas Card Addresses etc., I can look back on how we did things, what worked, what didn't & how I might want to do things different, or what things I might want to add, or even years down the road to see when we started certain traditions! :)
Just a thought...maybe this could help make your Holidays less stressful, more organized & all in one place!
