Christmas already?


I am not sure whether I have mentioned this to you before lovely readers but my mother, bless her little cotton socks, is fanatical about Christmas. Not quite Griswald style Christmas (well isn't that a relief I hear you say!) but I am talking Christmas baking, fairy light obsessed, Christmas carol playing, over the top present buying craziness! It is tough being subject to such festivities but I will be honest, I am very happy to do it :) - Christmas in our family rocks! But even the most enthusiastic Christmas elf has to draw the line somewhere and I draw it at seeing Christmas decorations in department stores at the end of August! Don't you think that this is crazy? 
I have had mixed reactions from friends when I have mentioned it. One of my friends from work actually squealed with excitement when I told her that I had seen Christmas decorations in department stores already - "I know. Isn't it great" she shrieked.

Anyways, I have since overcome my surprise and have started thinking a little about Christmas ideas myself. There are some great ideas popping up on pinterest and I thought that in the spirit of ridiculously early Christmas preparation, I would get in quick and start posting ideas.

I am thinking that this year I will embark on a wreath making project - how very Martha Stewart of me, I know :)
Do you have any Christmas projects planned for this year? Don't you dare say you haven't thought about it yet!
