25 Days of Christmas (Day 9)

Stuff your stockings! Decorate or just fill those stockings with treats for the family. 

Some ideas to fill: small bottles of perfume, lotions, bath bombs, bubble bath, vanity sets, toys for the kids, puzzles, games, etc.

Make Your Own Ornaments:

Always a special touch to the tree or wreath when the ornament are either hand made, sentimental or both! A special vacation memory, birth, acknowledgement these are all nice ideas to make your holiday memories just a tad more special!

Color Christmas Pages: 

This activity is truly for the kids you have or the kid inside of you! It’s always a great idea to insert artistic expression. Some people may be more creative than I am and choose to do something more elaborate and or if you have older children you may decide to add some depth to just coloring pages but I’ve found that coloring is not only a lost art it’s something that can be soothing. 

Painting, sculpting, molding, creating a wreath, etc are all various activities to complete on day 3. After your work is done add it to your home decor. 

Enjoy and have fun!

I’ll post a photo below of my daughter’s finished work later, along with a painting she did with my artist brother.

Here’s an idea that my book club did a few years back for an arts and crafts project.

Family Video (Christmas Greeting)

Using your phone or any other recording device and streaming to Instagram, Tik Tok, Facebook LIVE, and my personal favorite YouTube is always a great way to brighten someone’s day! 

A few years ago, courtesy of some free App I saw on Facebook, I was able to superimpose my family’s pictures and create an Elf jingle to share on social media.
