Wowza! This is a one-stop shop for holiday planning guidance! I love the Thanksgiving grocery list with step-by-step prep (not that I cook) and all the gift-wrapping advice. But I think my favorite aspect of the post is the look at the holiday traditions. Doing that in-depth makes it a much more mindful experience, I'm sure.
Janet Schiesl
I like your suggestions for a gift wrapping station. I set one up every year for one of my clients and I'll use some of your tips this year.
Sherry Wynn
WOW!! Alot of great advice.

It looks like you've got the holiday season covered with lists and ideas for keeping organized, planning, and even relaxing, and keeping stress levels low. That's such an important part- not just to do, do, do, wrap, wrap, wrap, but to take the time to enjoy being with family and friends, enjoy cooking and baking, or enjoy any of the traditions you have.
Jonda Beattie
Love the checklists! Thanks for sharing. In the past I have always hosted a party. I plan on skipping that for the 2nd year in a row and plan to schedule time to chat with everyone that would have been on that party invite list. Hopefully next year.....
Diane N Quintana
These are wonderful ideas and tips for organizing during (and in advance of) the holidays. I love your Thanksgiving Dinner checklist!

You have so much great content for holiday organizing, Sabrina! My family has lots of traditions. So many, in fact, that we don't get to them all each year. One is that I enjoy making a festive appetizer on Thanksgiving and Christmas, such as a turkey-shaped cheese platter, or a tree-shaped puff pastry.
Most of all, I need to try and focus more on enjoying whatever traditions we elect to do, and let go of feeling pressured to do more.
Janet Barclay
I love the way you've organized everything you've written on this topic! You've made me realize how simple my own celebrations have become.
