We have a winner for the beautiful turquoise ring giveaway! Congratulations to Allison Barracco!
I hope you enjoy the collection of “Christmas Past” as I collected some favorites and put them all in one place (well the Pinterest board is new)!
Simple Christmas Series: Easy Holiday Dishes
Saving Money During the Holidays
Practical Ideas for Relieving Christmas Stress
Christmas Ideas & Money-Saving Tips
My Pinterest Craft & Gift Idea Board
Frugal Christmas & Blessings in Disguise
And–oh my goodness!–I had forgotten about this post. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did rediscovering it. Christmas is Not About Peanut Brittle (It’s so weird seeing our old house. My 5-yr.-old actually said, “Mom, where was that place?”)
Last idea: Wrap presents without spending money…
- use brown paper bags, turned inside out–decorate with ribbon, raffia, leaves, pine cones, fingerpaint, etc.
- use sheets of old music
- use old maps
- use old fabric
- use old wall paper
- Tuck gifts in basket, unwrapped
