,
That time of year again....Christmas.
I love getting out the tree's and decoration's, as I get to see what great stuff I got at the sales.
I store the tree's and decorations in a plastic storage container and bag. Although this year I will be getting a bigger container, just to have it all in the one.
I saw these plastic tubs at Bunnings and bought one. Trees and all can fit
I find by having it in a limited space means I can't have too much.
I get the trees out and give one each to the kids.
The kids get one each, saves fight's and they get to decorate as they wish.
And I can also put their present under their tree and know who's is who's, as I don't write names on the presents.
As I am pulling out the decorations I make sure that they are still in one piece. If not then out it goes.
We put the Christmas trees and decorations on the hall table, which is right near the front door.
And we put the ornaments on the white filing cupboard and in front of the trees.

I also have a bag in the bottom of the dining room cupboard that has my plates, cups, bon bon's, piñata bags etc.
That I check to make sure we have enough for the day, as once again I picked these items up in the sales last year.
And take note of what I need, usually cutlery.
I also have the placemat's and a game that I picked up at reject shop sale.
It seems I have no bon bon's and need a few more plates.

And lastly Christmas crafts......I have them in a shopping bag at the moment.
These are craft things that I picked up at the sales last year.
I will have to pull them all out and see what is in there and what is age appropriate for each child.
I set up one craft a day in the week leading up to Christmas
I like to have something for the kids to do, other then drive me crazy.
I will add in wrapping the presents in this one as well.
It is a craft activity for mum...
I will transfer these into the old plastic tub that the decorations were in.
