We're always on a budget around here, and Christmas time is no different. So, to kick things off this season, I unwrapped my decorations to see what was needed. We're in a bigger house this year, so it was almost necessary to add a few more things to stretch what I already had...
Of course, I had to stop here:

I found a few non-Christmas items on one of my recent Goodwill trips...
LOVE these pink veggie dishes.
I paid $4 for both!
I spied these beauties hiding in a corner but couldn't think of a reason to buy them for myself, so I picked them up for a photographer friend to use in her photoshoots...
there was a bonus cosmetic bag inside the small one!
Aren't they sweet!?!
I can't wait to see how she uses them..
{I'm sure she'll put them to good use!}
23 more days until Christmas...in case you've lost track.
Take a moment to reflect on the Greatness of this season.
Stop here:
have one or two of these:

And
RELAX.
I mean, at this time
NEXT year will your family
remember the gifts you were so
stressed over finding and wrapping THIS
year? And, in TEN years will they even remember
ANY of the gifts you've stressed over all these years???
Doubtful.
Remember the original Gift...and don't stress over the imitations....
