This week we are going to tackle the following sections:-
Decorations
Advent
Traditions
DECORATIONS
This section is quite a big one for me, I have the following things in this section:-
Pictures of decorations I like which I have torn from magazines.
An inventory of all of the decorations I have and where/how they are stored.
Details of how each room in my home will be decorated. I have this computerised so that each year it is easy for me to move things around if I want to.
Here are the links for the forms I have used

ADVENT
I have always done advent gifts for my children and in this section I have a blank calender where I list the gifts I have purchased. This is a new section for me and this year will be the first year I have used it. In the past I have just counted up the gifts I have purchased sometime late November to make sure I have enough and this year I planned on being more organised.

TRADITIONS
Here are some ideas for this section, Secret Santa, Magic Elves, Family Traditions. Inspirations.
In this section I have a list of traditons I have created over the past few years. Eg
PJs to open on Christmas Eve, mulled wine and mince pies while decorating the tree, making reindeer food. Here is the form I have used to record these.
