Number 1) ...
1) if you want to WOW your family with a lounge full of fun and gifts Xmas day/birthdays but haven’t many gifts that year blow up as many balloons as you can and scatter the gifts within the balloons on the floor looks amazing (and loads of fun !) 🎁 🎈
2) Take a leaf out of my dear grandmas book and serve a plate of bread and butter (Cheap bread not this posh artisan Stuff !) with every main meal , you can say it’s to mop up the juices but it’s actually to fill everyone up 🍞👍
3) instead of an expensive day out go for a walk in the woods grab pine cones to make wreaths with cereal box cardboard and make paper chains to decorate the house ,will take all day ,the fresh air tires them out and they will love the 1:1 time 🎄 🍂
5) (number 4 is in Sophie’s reply ) if you run out of laundry detergent use a little bit of fairy liquid , does the job 👍
Wine is always a good gift for adults , look out for the supermarkets 25 % off deals where a bottle will end up costing about £3 each stick a bow on it job done (just don’t drink it yourself before Christmas...hic 😂!) xx
You can make vouchers by google images printed off as gifts for an experience/day out in the year , that way “buying “ the gift later xx
