gift bags

I like to use gift bags because they can often be used for more than one occassion.  And the person getting the gift is likely to reuse it too!

cards and tags

We turn last year's Christmas cards into this year's gift tags.

wrapping

Wrap your presents in newspaper!

Boxing Day tip

After Christmas dinner, our family eats what leftovers we can and then we share the leftovers with our Grandad across the road and sometimes we even share them with our pets!

Boxing Day Tip

Cold cuts on boxing day!  Use up the leftover turkey.  Perhaps we need to make Santa a bit more eco-friendly?!  Retire the reindeer and opt for an electric sleigh?!
