Journaling - Decorating

Journaling Prompts for Decorating 

  • House – Make a list of all the rooms in your house that you plan to decorate. 
    • Do you have a theme for that room? 
    • Do you put a tree in this room?
    • What item do you need to add to this room this year?

Add these items to your shopping or to do lists.

  • Trees  - Some people only have one tree but many have more than one – think about your tree or trees – did you want to:
    • Add anything new to them?
    • Buy or make a new skirt?
    • Purchase new lights?
    • Add some ornaments?
    • Change it completely?

Add these items to your shopping or to do lists.

  • Yard – Do you decorate in the yard?  Things to consider:
    • Do you want to add anything to your decorations?
    • Do you want to remove something?
    • Do you need to schedule leaf raking before decorating?
    • When do you need to start putting up your decorations?

  • Family – yes family!  Have you thought about how you are going to dress or "decorate" your family?  Is this even something you do?  It could be as simple as cute holiday headbands for your entire family (including the pets) or having matching outfits made for everyone!  I personally like to have matching sweaters for our family and matching pj's for my children on Christmas morning. 

    When you want matching things or if you just want to coordinate you need to think about it starting in the summer so you know what you are looking for when the winter clothes start hitting the stores.
    • How do you want to be dressed for your holiday pictures?
    • How do you want your family to be dressed at family celebrations?
How do you want your family to be dressed for outings you may attend?
