Costumes are not just for Halloween! Children love dressing up in costumes year-round and little girls love having special outfits for Christmas. Therefore, these adorable tutu costumes are perfect for the holidays. When my daughter was a toddler, she though tutus were the coolest, most awesome little girl apparel in the world. She would have […]
Christmas parties are always fun, but the clean-up is hardly exciting. Some years we are really excited to pull out the Christmas china for guests. Other years, we opt for the disposable plates with matching or complimentary napkins. Even though the plates and napkins are disposable, we still want them to add beauty to our […]
Every year I buy a new Christmas sweater to wear during the holidays. It makes it so much easier when I don’t have to stress over what I am going to wear on Christmas day. I need something that will allow me to move around, bend over or even lay down for a break without […]
If I said “Bumble”, many of us would immediately think of the Abominable Snowman from “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” Christmas tv movie. The annual special has entertained families for decades, through multiple generations. As a child, I watched it on television. As a parent, I watched “Rudolph” with my own children on tv. Even […]

One of my favorite traditions for Christmas is serving dinners on my Christmas china, as well as using my Christmas serving platters and serving dishes. Each year, I take my Christmas platters off the shelf and wash them in preparation for the holidays. I use two platters each year. One for turkey and one for […]
Let’s face it, Christmas pajamas are a necessity for most of us. If you happen to be a mom, the children will get up on Christmas morning before you do. If you happen to be spending Christmas with your in-laws, your mother-in-law will be out of bed, dressed and made-up for the day before sunrise. […]
Some years we need to be able to decorate our Christmas tree quickly. Or, perhaps, we want a second tree in our home that has the designer touch. The containers of prepackaged coordinating Christmas tree ornaments make beautifully decorating a tree fast and easy! All of the ornaments in a container match and compliment each […]
Tree skirts are the final touch when decorating a Christmas tree. They certainly make a big difference in the overall look of the tree. No one wants to see the tree stand. No matter how long you spend decorating a tree, seeing the tree stand diminishes it’s beauty. A tree skirt not only adds design, […]
