Stress Less This Holiday: Gift-giving Part 2

Here are a few more tips for organizing your holiday gift-giving:

• Set up a gift-wrap center right away so you can wrap as you go. Select a color and theme for your wrapping and keep all supplies such as tape, pens and scissors together so you don’t have to hunt for them.
• Prepare a written gift list NOW (if you haven’t already). List people in same order each year and save the list to reference.
• Keep your receipts in one place. This will help with returns or budget calculations.
• Buy in major categories or themes or from the same store or mall or order gifts on line and ship direct. Doing so helps streamline buying and saves time.

Gift-giving can be an enjoyable process if you include time for it in your holiday plans. If you haven’t already started shopping make the commitment to do so now so you can take pleasure in gift-giving and enjoy the remainder of the festivities.
