Whether you love it or loathe it, for most people there is no escaping Christmas and all the commercialism it brings with it. If you are looking for a change from the normal, mass-produced Christmas decorations, cards and wrapping paper there are some simple ways of making this year’s Christmas truly unique.
We know it might be a tad early to mention the ‘C’ word, but as the well-known motto dictates; ‘Fail to Prepare, Prepare to Fail’. Christmas is swiftly marching on and no doubt many of you have subtly started your Christmas shopping.
Christmas time is the season of giving and receiving. If you’re grateful for your presents or even if you aren’t (maybe you’ve had one too many pairs of socks?!) it’s still good manners to send your thanks. After all it’s the thought that counts.
So, it’s that time of year again. There are only a few shopping days left until Christmas and a pile of cards waiting to be written. Aunts, uncles, brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, long lost relatives – all your friends and family deserve some festive cheer this year. But writing cards is a chore, isn’t it?
Everyone appreciates a personalised Christmas present. Putting in that extra effort in makes all the difference, whether it’s extra special thought about your Christmas gifts or something as simple as adding bows, ribbons and gift tags to the wrapping paper, each little touch makes the person receiving the present appreciate it all the more.
