Ruh row.

@IndifferentDude Perfect Graphic! I’m not a fan of Christmas in July, let alone October or November. Let the seasons be the seasons.

@tohar1 Thanks! I “stole” it a few years back and like to use it to get back at those who infringe on the proper sequence of the holidays!
Lego has had theirs out for at least a month.
That’s my favorite advent calendar. I still need to finish the one from last year. Maybe I’ll skip it.
@sammydog01 Do you keep all those adorable tiny jars? I haven’t gotten a calendar because I’m not that into jam, but I love the little jars.
@Kyeh
@sammydog01 So cute!
@Kyeh I need to think of an appropriate craft.
@sammydog01 String of lights?
@Kyeh @sammydog01 I had my dadndrill holes in the liz to make tinybsalt and pepper shakers for when Im having bbq’s at my house. Super cute
Sorry for the fat finger wrrors, but Im leaving them in for WHR. Giives her something to do.
@tinamarie1974 Yours look just like mine.
@sammydog01 @tinamarie1974
Salt and pepper shakers are a brilliant idea!
@werehatrack my what? Sorry not following
@Kyeh @sammydog01 I got the idea here

@sammydog01 @tinamarie1974 Those are neat ideas.
@Kyeh @tinamarie1974 A couple of ideas I saw-
Glue magnets to the top and use them as spice jars to stick to the fridge. You could probably also put a metal strip under a cabinet and hang them.
Also Drunk Aunt Wendy’s suggestion:
I think I did a clay thing last Halloween with maybe a creepy hand in a jar but I can’t find it.
I guess I should see what Wera has this year.
@blaineg Ooh, salt & pepper shakers as extras!

@blaineg It’s all so chic and designery and pretty!
/showme Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas all happening in August
The summer mavens in my office are heartily upset that I brought up Halloween and Dollar Tree decor for same in July. It isn’t just Christmas being pushed forward; they want their summer unsullied by Autumn and the holidays.
@duodec I do too but it’s no longer possible, I’ve become resigned to it.
