The Golden List for Planning your Christmas Holidays
But what is hidden behind this festive mood in order to develop everything the way we dreamed of?
The right planning of course!
In this article I will share with you my thoughts, my inspiration and my secrets for Christmas Holidays
without unpleasant surprises but only filled with plenty of pleasant moments for us and our beloved ones.
The first and most important part of planning our Christmas holidays, is to make a list of everything that we will need.
Christmas Decoration
We start from picking the concept we want for the Christmas Decoration of our home.
This will help us to have an easier and logical approach for the following parts that we have to choose.
At this point we choose the theme according to what we like of course but also what suits with the rest of the decoration style of our home.
Here we have to keep in mind the budget we want to spent for our Christmas Holidays.
For example, if we choose a luxurious decoration theme for our Christmas tree, we have to use the same luxury for the gift wrapping or the table setting.

Planning the Menu for Christmas
Christmas dinner is one of the most important meals of the year.
That’s why most of the hosts want something special for this day.
With the right planning this special dinner will be very easy to prepare.
It will not stress you at all and it will be very impressive for your guests.
The first thing to do is to decide the Christmas Menu.
You can follow my Pinterest board “Christmas Menu Ideas” for inspiration or to create your own board.
Once you’ve decided the final menu, print the necessary recipes and create a list of the ingredients that you need.
Start shopping your ingredients along with your weekly shopping and leave the fresh products for the last days before the dinner.
Make sure to make any necessary ingredient pre-orders for where it is needed.
Here you can print the List for the Christmas Menu.
Christmas Table Setting
It is time to think how we would like to present our menu for our guests and how to decorate the Christmas table.
The key secret to success behind this process is to match our table setting colourfully and thematically with the rest of the Christmas decorative style we chose for our home.
