Christmas in July with Storkie.com

Did you know that in only 5 months it will be Christmas ? ! ?                                                  I have already started to get things for the grandchildren as I have so many to buy for that I try to shop all year. We also like to decorate the whole house as Christmas is my favorite time of the year. One thing that we like to do is hang all the Christmas Cards up that we get. We get so many of them that it seems a shame to just put them in the drawer. We usually just make a circle around one of the doorways as that way everyone that comes over can also enjoy them. I like to start shopping early for our Christmas cards as that is just one more thing that I can cross off my list. One of the places that I have found that has everything that we need is Storkie.com   As they have everything you need for all your holidays! At the end of the season we like to find things to do with all the unique Christmas cards . A great way to recycle the cards from year to year~   Gift Tags
