The goal of the wrapping parties is to have no wrapping to do the week of Christmas! Even if you have nothing to wrap- you can plan, strategize, come up with a theme of colors, or simply join in the fun!

Here are the dates for 2012:

Sunday, July 29th- Wrap up Christmas in July.

Saturday, October 6th- Have you started getting your gifts together yet?

Saturday, November 3rd- Christmas will be here before you know it!

Monday, November 12th- End of a long weekend for some.

Saturday, November 24th-
Sunday, November 25th-
As you get those Black Friday Deals- Wrap them up!

Saturday, December 8h-
Sunday, December 9th-
You should be getting there now!

Saturday, December 15th- Almost there!

Saturday, December 22nd- Goal Complete!!!!!!

Thanks, Annie! I totally fell down on the wrapping this year and really want to do better this year. I hope keeping these dates in mind will help.

And I am looking forward to the wrapping parties, TOO, snickerdoodle.... even though I have NEVER wrapped anything at any of the wrapping parties! But... it does get me thinking about Christmas.. and reminds me to shop...... AND... hope springs eternal!

Thanks Annie.

Since my boss is off today and there's not much for me to do, I brought in my notebook to work on (taking out the old and putting in the new). Now I can add these dates in my calendar section.

I just added them to my calendar for the first time. GO ME!! I'm going to really try and pay attention and do some wrapping early. I just hated how it was all last minute this year.

I agree- wrapping way into the wee hours on Christmas Eve is a true downer....... It's just too exhausting!

It just hit me like a bolt of lightning- Our first wrapping party will be at the end of this month!!!

Wow!!!

Even if you don't have any wrapping to do, you can:

* Organize wrapping supplies
* Make gift tags
* Come up with a color scheme for wrapping of Christmas, 2012

Wrapping party is: Sunday, July 29th- all day.
Remember you can swap it out for any day that works for you.

Annie
