How to get into the Christmas feel ✨


Christmas

Introduction

I love the holiday season. I love to decorate my home and get into the spirit of things. However, it can be really hard to capture that Christmas spirit if you don't have a lot of money to spend on decorations or time to make them yourself. But don't worry! With these simple steps you'll be able to create your own Christmas wonderland in no time:

Decorate your space

The first step to getting into the Christmas spirit is to decorate your space. This can be done in a number of ways, but there are some simple tips to keep in mind as you do so.

  • Decorate your room: Take down any other items that are hanging on the walls or standing up in the middle of floor space, and replace them with tree decorations or lights. You can hang up stockings hanging from door handles, and decorate chairs with bows or reindeer antlers if you have any lying around at home.

  • Decorate your workspace: If you work from home (like me), this means moving all personal stuff onto one side of your desk so that it doesn't get mixed up with work stuff later on when you're trying to get into a festive mood while finishing those TPS reports! It also helps if there's no other distracting objects around—if possible try turning off your computer monitors too! I find this really helps me focus when I'm working on something important like writing blog posts :)

  • Decorate car: Set up some lights inside and outside of your car as well as putting tinsel around mirrors and windows for extra effect! If driving isn't an option for whatever reason then maybe consider getting someone else in exchange for driving ability :) Or just buy yourself new wheels instead haha jk :D

Make your own advent calendar

Advent calendars are a fun way to countdown the days until Christmas, and they're also a great way to get you into the Christmas spirit. If you want to make one for yourself or your family but don't want it to be too expensive, here are some ideas:

  • Make an advent calendar with anything you like! You can use chocolate or other sweets, ornaments from previous Christmases that might have sentimental value, small gifts for members of the family—the possibilities are endless!

  • Make one for each member of your family (or just yourself). You can open each window every day during December as a mini-reward for making it through another day without having a nervous breakdown from all that stress about presents and traveling and whether or not Santa is real.

Play some Christmas songs

  • Find some music that makes you feel festive

  • Make sure to listen to some traditional Christmas songs

  • Play the music in a way that suits your tastes

  • Add some Christmas themed music to your playlist

Shop for presents

The holidays are a time when people want to give gifts. It's also a time when they want to receive them, but that's besides the point. The first and most important step to getting into the holiday spirit is shopping for presents!

To start your Christmas shopping right, keep these tips in mind:

  • Plan ahead. Have an idea of what you're going to get for everyone on your list so you don't end up buying something last minute and then having to return it because it wasn't what was expected.

  • Be creative with your gift giving choices—you don't have to spend tons of money on expensive items; there are plenty of other ways to show someone how much you care about them without breaking the bank (more on this later).

  • Don't be too ambitious—if you're going overboard trying new or elaborate ideas for gifts, then chances are those same people will be expecting more from next year's holiday season as well

Create a merry mind with these simple ideas.

The Christmas season is upon us and it's time to get in the spirit. But how? If you're looking for ways to create a merry mind, we've got some ideas that will help!

  • Buy yourself a new Christmas onesie. Whether it's in the form of an ugly sweater, an elf costume or a Santa suit—a festive pair of pajamas will help you show off your holiday spirit in public.

  • Start planning your next trip to see family and friends. There are so many fun plans over this time period that make it hard not to feel excited about Christmas! If seeing loved ones isn't on your agenda yet though, consider taking yourself out on a date instead! You deserve some quality time too after all these months working hard on your career or whatever else keeps you busy during the holidays (or even just throughout the year). Either way, enjoy those moments relaxing before they're over!
