Happy Christmas Eve! Hope you have all your Christmas shopping done and can relax by the Christmas tree with a good, strong glass of eggnog.
Here\’s a short checklist of things to do for Xmas:
Any last minute wrapping
Double wrap if you want too! Itโll be like a one person pass the parcel. (Of course only do this if you have leftover materials to do so with though (Iโm all about the waste.. I mean Iโm all about NOT being wasteful! ).
Tidy up under the tree
I canโt tell you how many times this gets done on Christmas Eve! But it never gets old Iโll tell you that! Pile everything up in order of who itโs for/from!
Listen the life out of Christmas FM
Or make/listen to a festive playlist! There are so many Christmas songs out there, why not listen to some that are unfamiliar and be on the lookout for a new favourite!?
Prepare some of Christmas dinner in advance
Thereโs always something to do and it means that the person who usually cooks Christmas dinner will get to take a break and spend more time with everyone else on the day!
Snuggle up under layer upon layer of blankets with a hot chocolate
Always a fun thing to do and what with all that wrapping + tidying up you deserve it
Stay in your pajamas
Or better still have out a brand new pair of pyjamas to wear especially on Christmas Eve This is something I want to get into doing every year as it sounds like the perfect way to tell yourself youโre in until Christmas is over and whatโs been done has been done!
Lay out your stocking
Thereโs nothing wrong with being ready! I actually canโt find mine so I need to go on the hunt for it quickfast.
Eat mince pies
I think Iโve gone back to not liking the insides of mince pies so much but thereโs always the pastry to eat with custard (take that as you choose ).
Have a Christmas movie marathon
Now this my friends is the epitome of Christmas Eve! Watch all the old faithfuls and gather up some new ones, relax back and soak up all the festive feels!
Merry Christmas, everyone โ and keep your eyes on the sky! Wishing everyone a warm, relaxing Christmas Eve surrounded by loved ones.
