Christmas in July Catch-Up - Days Eleven, Twelve, and Fifteen

 

Day Eleven brings us this great Christmas Checklist from Around the 'Net.  It's from the blog House Mix - scroll down on the blog to Categories and select Christmas for some great decorating and gift-giving ideas.  She also has a PDF budget worksheet.

Food on Friday was a search for Christmas tree appetizers.  There are a host of ideas using charcuterie fixings, fruit, veggies, pastry, even sushi or tortilla rolls.  Flat on a serving dish or upright, your Christmas tree appetizer is bound to be the center of your refreshment table.  Here are two of my favorites:



I found today's craft over ten years ago and it is a great way to gift mini-muffins or cookies.  Dismantle a foil, cling film, or wax paper box, wrap it in festive wrap, put it back together again, and you have a unique gift box.

  1. The Christmas tree appetizer looks really good- both good to look at due to its festivity and good to eat. The checklist is a good idea as well. I tend to fly by the seat of my pants. It all gets done but... there is stress sometimes. I should get more organized. Have a great Monday!
