The tree is decorated, the presents are wrapped, and we’re getting close to that time of year where we want to celebrate what’s most important.

About two years ago, my niece-in-law gave me a great gift. In the past, I did my place cards by hand which can get very time consuming. That time could be better spent with my grandchildren and family!

Not only can you order them online but you can print over 20 name cards within a matter of a few minutes. They’re beautiful and look like they’ve been done by hand. And because I’m such a big recycler, I’ve got them all ready again for this year. You can just keep adding to them for the next year. The best part is you can do it all online:

Merry Christmas and I hope you enjoy every minute you have with your family and friends.

As we approach Christmas in the next coming weeks, I wanted to share some of my favorite gifts to give and to receive!

One of my favorite gifts I receive is an Amaryllis from my college roommate who sends me one every year! As I said in my video, they’re beautiful and last forever! This year, I took one to my Aunt Betty and Walker’s mom. You can get one from Jackson & Perkins here or if you’re lucky, you can find one at your local Trader Joe’s.

Another one of my favorite gifts are these Christmas Ornaments from MiniManyMemories. Every year, one of my best friends takes last year’s Christmas card photos and makes them into great ornaments for my tree. Email beverly@minimanymemories.com for your own little ornament!

I love recycling vintage items and passing down fond memories. This year I’m recycling my daughter’s Barbie car to her girls. I can’t wait to see Grace and Clara play with it.

I hope these you’ll enjoy these gifts as much as me!
