I think one of the best things about Christmas is the expectant build up of it all. However, having said that, for me this starts around the 1st December. I can’t get on board with all the Christmas stock in shops at the end of September. I just won’t allow myself to look at any of it until at least the end of November!
But, from December onwards when the afternoons turn to dusk and the magical twinkle of Christmas lights begin to turn on, I like to take time to enjoy some of my favourite things that make me feel all Christmassy.
So, this Christmas don’t let all the little things that make Christmas extra special pass you by in a blur of franticness, join me by indulging in my top 5 favourite Christmas pastimes…
- Wrap up warm and visit a Christmas market, taking in all the delights and hand-crafted gifts on offer.
- Sit back and watch the world go by while sipping on a rather festive hot chocolate, topped with cream and extra marshmallows.
- Put on your favourite Christmas Movie, whilst wearing your most festive Christmas jumper.
- Enjoy a performance, whether it be a pantomime with the grandchildren, a local choir or community theatre group.
- Get creative and make your own Christmas wreath. If you’re not sure where to start, there are some fantastic DIY kits out there.
From all at Greenfords Ltd, we wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
