Each evening at dinnertime, how about praying for one or two families who sent you Christmas cards? Then why not get a jump on next year's Christmas by having fun going through your old cards and making gift tags with your family? Each year the secretary at the architectural engineering firm where my husband works saves the cards for me that would otherwise be thrown out. That's because years ago I asked if she would save them for me, knowing they do toss them. Their cards are fancy with lots of gold, silver and glitter, and they make beautiful gift tags, as many in our own Christmas card basket will as well.
Refer back to the Christmas newsletter, "Fun Gifts to Make ~ Easy on the Budget" for directions on making cake candles with cards - Christmas or all occasion cards. You may get inspired to think and plan ahead to make gifts for the coming year. With the downturn in our economy, making quality gifts that others can use and enjoy is just one way to trim the budget.
