Stay within budget this holiday season with up-cycled Christmas gifts. Think outside the gift giving box this season; look at old unused items that may have parts that can be reused for other interesting and unique gifts. Cover thrift store finds such as boxes and crates with dish shards for an awesome magazine rack.

Holiday time can be fun, but so very expensive and consequently stressful. Amidst the frantic schedules we keep all year long, the extra tasks thrown in for the holidays and all those expectations, sometimes we are just glad when it is all over. Save On Holiday Decorating. Thrift stores are also a great place to shop.

On the 25th of every month from January to November in 2019, I will hold a virtual meeting on the blog to give updates on our progress, motivate one another, and help all of us save for a cash Christmas. This should cover my tentative 2019 Christmas budget that I based on what we spent in 2018. My monthly goal is $100.
