How to Celebrate Christmas in July

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas… Christmas in July! First things first, press play on your favorite holiday music (suggestion: Beach Boys’ Christmas Album). Mix up a delicious bevvy and make your way to the storage area to unpack the tree, lights, village, santa, stockings, and/or holiday tableware. The decorating can take one hour or several days – you choose! Enjoy the holiday spirit within your home all month, but on Friday, July 24 – prepare for Santa Clause’s visit as this day marks the half-way point to Christmas and even Santa is antsy for an early celebration this year. Don’t forget the carrot for the reindeer and look forward to what surprises await the next morning!
