Don’t shoot the messenger

It’s official – as of today, its 95 days (13 weeks) until Christmas!
I was reminded of this looming date when I found myself staring at Christmas decorations in store this morning!
‘Yeah, yeah’ you say, but seriously, getting organised is likely to save you a lot of stress.
When it comes to decorations, do you remember where you packed away and stored last year’s decorations? Were you happy with last year’s decorations? Have you had the same decorations in the family for more years than you are to remember? Do you look at other people’s Christmas trees, outdoor festive décor and wish you could do the same thing? If so, then getting organised early is the key. It is only too easy to pull out your decorations last minute, throw them up around the house and on the tree and swear that you will put in more effort next year.
It’s never too early to start planning, and shopping, when it comes to festivities and decoration, especially if you are shopping online.
Here are some ideas to get you started.
