Countdown to Christmas – 20 Money Saving Days to Go

Make your own Christmas Decorations

Traditionally Christmas decorations were put up on Christmas Eve, and then 12 days of Christmas later, they were taken down again!

Now it’s more like 12 weeks of Christmas. I saw my first house lit up with ‘blinking’ lights in the windows on 23rd November! Who needs to be that early? Who needs to be first?

You can start now to make your decorations though, using any oddments of card, paper, glittery cards etc – just be creative with designs and material use – kids love this time of year, make it more special, more frugal, show them you don’t have to spend a fortune to have a great time, best of all its almost free, (you may need to buy some glue, glitter etc).

What ever you make, be proud of it – we are.
