THE FIVE | no to little cost things to do this holiday season

 

I know it’s been all gift guides and presents lately, but I wanted to put together a list of 5 inexpensive things you can do to bring magic into the season

1-marathon movie night: classics, hallmark, lifetime, new-they’ll all bring the feels and magic 

2-hot chocolate bar & a Christmas playlist; fun mugs, different toppings, make the cocoa in the crockpot, perfect playlist 

3-decorate stockings; I’m into an aesthetics, but a holiday craft is the best

4- donut decorate off; who remembers when Jen & I did this for Halloween?

5-bake some cookies & head out to look at the lights

what are somethings you do at little cost during the holidays? xx,
