"Last week, I was anxiously waiting for my alarm to go off so I could run to my computer and make sure I grabbed tickets for the "Hot Cocoa with Anna and Elsa" event at our local park district farm. Yes, that's right! I was booking things for December in August! And while you might still think summer is here until the weather cools down (it's not, it's fall, sorry!),"
"But what Organized Christmas is, is a very slow, very gentle, very calm way to get ready for Christmas without you really even noticing that you're doing it. That's the whole magic of it. Every single week, I just give you a few jobs, bite-sized jobs just to tick off. It's not too much, it's not gonna overwhelm you, it's not gonna take up too much time in your week, cause I know that we're all busy."
Organized Christmas breaks holiday preparation into weekly, bite-sized tasks beginning in September and continuing through November. Each week assigns a few small, manageable jobs designed to fit into busy schedules without causing overwhelm. Tasks include researching and booking holiday events, securing tickets, and gradual planning and prepping so that shopping, wrapping, and card writing do not pile up. The slow, gentle, calm approach aims to leave December largely stress-free, enabling families to enjoy holiday activities together rather than rushing through last-minute preparations. Weekly checklists and small wins build momentum and confidence while keeping holiday tasks manageable.
