So, I know that a lot of us have the tradition of new PJ's opened on Christmas Eve. I so love this tradition and do it every year but I always had one problem...which ones are the PJs? I'd try marking them but they would still get mixed in and I would spend a good amount of time under the tree (with antsy kids I might add) searching and sorting trying to find my marked presents until I had this idea! I made up a "Santa Sack" that I put all the PJ's in. Its looks darn cute under the tree too! Then Christmas Eve I just grab the sack and let the kids get their packages from it. Simple, easy fix!! What do you do to keep the PJ's separate and easy to find?? Comment! I'd love to hear!!
I love love love things that make my house smell well.....yummy! These recipes are wonderful for just that! I love to just throw the ingredients into a small saucepan on the stove and let them just barely simmer. (not to be left unattended) This also makes a great neighbor gift! Just deliver the ingredients to a friend with the instructions in a cute embellished bag and TA DA! Cheap, yet wonderful gift!! (plus makes a great humidifier too!) My Favorite Potpourri Recipe 1 lemon cut in fourths 1 apple cut in fourths 1 orange cut in fourths 2 or 3 cinnamon sticks Water to cover Place in a pan and simmer. Holiday Potpourri 1 Orange 1 Lemon 1 Bay Leaf 1 Cinnamon Stick 1/4 Cup Whole Cloves 1. Cut orange and lemon into pieces. 2. Put all ingredients in a sauce pan and cover with water. 3. Simmer on stove, and add additional water during the day, when needed. Holiday Spice 2 c. water 1/2 c. sugar 1 c. pineapple juice 1 c. orange juice 1 lemon, sliced 4 cinnamon sticks 1 Tbs...
Love the idea! They're so cute too! One more thing to add to my to do list for Christmas :)

ReplyDeleteThis is so cute. Gets you in the mood for Christmas, oh no not yet!!
ReplyDeleteThat is a perfect idea! It would be fun, too, if the "sack" were a fun pillowcase for the kids to use all year, too! I love thinking about Christmas in July when there is no pressure.
