I haven't started yet, but I am working on my list

I have a few things already, some bath & body stuff, small purse and a few other small things. I always start early and finish by August, hopefully this year I can finish earlier.

I found some Christmas socks at Walmart yesterday for 50 cents each.
I'll put them away for stocking stuffers...only one pair actually has a Christmas related theme.. otherwise they are red, green, purple and pink. gotta love that.

I have a couple of the kids stocking stuffers and I have wrapping paper bought in the sales - I am trying to pick up a few things every month and am starting to make cards and gifts very early this year!

I bought some huge candles at Michael's for the girls' Sunday School teachers but that's about it so far.

Just some Bath & Body Works stuff for my mil in one of their holiday scents.

I'm hoping to work on other gifts soon though.

I've received some internet freebies I'm saving for stocking stuffers, and I've started picking up craft supplies to make my christmas cards.I start thinking about the holiday early in the year and collect recipes and ideas all throughout the year.

Haven't started here yet. I'm planning to start in May this year and have things done by the end of summer. I don't have many to buy for and want to add a few "surprise" gifts this year and play Secret Santa.

My sister and I are planning on having most of our shopping done by October so we do not engage in the Christmas shopping frenzy everyone complains about. And for other reasons as well. Anyway we are crafting 1 or 2 nights a month just for that purpose and we are starting a crafting club.
