Holiday Prep: Tips for making it easier

Who is 100% ready for Christmas?

Heck, are you ready for Thanksgiving this week?

I have a few tips on how I try to get ahead of the game before all the crazy begins.

1. Decorate Early

If you aren't hosting Thanksgiving at your house, get your tree and decor out the day after Halloween!

Honestly, it brightens our moods to see those twinkling lights and warm and cozy decorations (research says that is true).

And you get to enjoy it longer :)

2. Order Online

From dinner supplies to presents, the Internet is your friend for getting things done.

Yes, I know the stores are so pretty at the holidays.

And the music is great too!

But you can spend a lot of time going from store to store trying to find what you need.

Just hop online and order it all.

If you have Amazon, it will probably arrive a few days later ;)

3. Take time for yourself

The holidays can be the best time of year, but also the most stressful.

Take a few minutes to de-stress from it all.

Maybe order yourself something before hitting submit on that Amazon order ;)

4. Don't wait to shop

Yes, there are some great deals on Black Friday and the whole month of December.

But while everyone else is running around trying to score the best deal, you could be at home relaxing by your Christmas tree because your shopping is mostly done :)

Now I'm off to place a few Amazon orders ;)
