25 Days of Christmas Dec 22

I am thrilled to be able to share so many great posts this month in anticipation of Christmas with the 25 Days of Christmas Blogshare.  Sorry I haven't posted the teasers in a couple of days. I just couldn't get straightened out who was supposed to be going which day. The posts that were shared were great, so head over to these blogs and check them out.

Breana over at This Mama Says... has some great suggestions for stocking stuffers. And though I know Christmas is tomorrow, I know we are still finishing up today, so here are here ideas if you are still in our predicament.

Christmas is just right around the corner and normally the last thing that everyone is shopping for are those small gifts and stocking stuffers. All those little things you kept saying to yourself that you'd pick up later..... Well 'later' is NOW!

Here is a great list of OVER 100 small and inexpensive gift ideas! I don't know about you, but I hate filling stockings and buying small 'filler' presents only to be throwing away those things within weeks, because they were junk!


This year I've decided that instead of wasting money, I'm buying things that are either needed, useful or consumable!

Another great idea for coworkers, friends or family is to group some of these items together for a "theme basket". I tried to group the items together as best I could! Here are a few suggestions... Baking, coffee, makeup, nails, art, golf, spa, electronics, car care, etc.

Also, considering that most of these items are $5.00 or less this would be a wonderful way to bless a family in need! We will be filling a stocking to send to our World Vision child, but you could also drop off with a charity, a church or a specific family that you know! What a wonderful blessing to someone you could be! And what a lesson it would be for your children!

Yesterday's post was brought to you by McCall at Lee, Me and the Girls. She wrote about Christmas Traditions.

Well, hello there!

I'm McCall from Lee, Me, and the Girls,

and I fully believe that no part of the year carries more traditions than Christmas.

From the food to the family, we all want the holiday season to be special and fun.

On December 23rd, I'll be posting about some of my  favorite traditions

 as well as some I wish were my traditions.

And most importantly, I'll be talking about the traditions that help us keep in mind the true meaning of this wonderful time of year.

I hope you'll join me, and I wish you all a very merry Christmas!

There are so many fun things to make for the holidays. I wanted to think of something unique and fun to put in my windows this year. This craft is great because it can be used all winter long, not just at Christmas time. I'm happy that we don't get snow here too often, but snowflakes go along with the cold weather!
