Need, Want, Wear, Read Christmas Gift Tags

Looking for a new Family Christmas Traditions? This is such an easy idea and really simplifies Christmas gift giving. Before beginning your Christmas shopping, focus on four things. Need, Want, Read, Wear. One gift for each category. Eliminate counting gifts under tree. Eliminate greed becoming the focus. Instead of quantity, focus returns to simplicity and allows for a greater focus on the reason for the Christmas season. Return the focus to the true gift of the season – the birth of Christ.

Christmas Gift Ideas

Last year we really tried to limit gifts and focus more on the experience. With that, a friend introduced me to Want Need, Read, Wear Christmas Gift Ideas. I thought it was a brilliant idea. It gives each child four gifts. You can go expensive with these Christmas Gift Giving Rules or you can stay frugal friendly.

Ask your child to help. Tell them you want them to brainstorm gift ideas for the following categories – read, wear, want, need. If they need inspiration, you can share with them our Christmas Gift Guide for ideas.

How to Print at Staples

I have a video to show you how I print my PDF documents at Staples.  One reason I like to spring at Staples is being able to print on cardstock, especially for gift tags. Plus I know I am getting good ink quality. First, sign in or create a Staples account.  Next, return to the Staples Printing Service Page. Follow the steps to continue.

Christmas Gift Wrapping Ideas

We shared earlier some Christmas gift wrapping techniques & ideas. There are adorable ideas for adding greenery, candy, or bows.

We also have an excellent tutorial for how to turn a cereal box into a gift wrap. A Christmas Gift Bag Cereal Box is the best because it is sturdy and really easy to wrap (with a square bottom). You can toss in things and the bag shape doesn’t change. Just add tissue paper and you are all set.
