I’m also an early planner for Christmas. I have a few gifts bought and plans for several others. Shopping ahead really helps save money.

I am really looking forward to being more creative this Christmas. Thank you for the inspiration! I think I’ll mention this in my new blog!

So funny. My husband and I were just talking about making weekly Christmas purchases and socking them away until December. I can't wait to make your Oreo Biscotti's. I think the kids and I will have to try those out tomorrow. Thanks for the tips!

Amy,

This post made me laugh because while my husband’s family has been all together this week, we drew names for Christmas gifts (among the siblings). I keep a little notebook in my purse so I can record gift ideas and keep them with me throughout the year.

Never too early to starting preparing. We are thinking alike this week. I just did a post on blog on the ways I have already prepared for Christmas.

hmmm… I wonder what wool dryer balls are?
Christmas.. yikes! I’m full blown into anti-commercialism right now. I can’t even think about it! Wake me in 3 months

Wow, you’re thinking of Christmas already? You are my hero.

I have a bad habit of thinking of Christmas around, say, late October, early November. On a good year. LOL!

Actually, this is good for me to read. Maybe I need to take a bit of time this week and write up a bit of a list of things that I could start to prepare, look for deals on, etc. in advance. What a concept!

See – just one more way we are kindred spirits! I’ve actually started making my gifts already and am planning to post one idea a week throughout the fall. I bookmark ideas and then look through and make a list of what I want to do that year. Usually, several jump out above the rest.

This year, I am making wool dryer balls, signs, hand warmers, button jewelry and sock monkeys!
