| Someone has probably posted this tip before, but if not here goes. I have been thrift store shopping for the holidays since July. When I buy something for Christmas, I bring it home and take a picture of it on my cel phone. That way I have a record and I won't forget my *new-to-me* treasures when December decorating rolls around. |

| Good idea.. TFS I just have to remember where I put new things.LOL Nana |

| This is a good idea. I put all my Christmas treasures(ha)in Christmas totes so I know where to look. I still haven't found the whole set of Ivy dishes I lost this year. I'm sure they are in a box or 2 sitting in the shed with DS's or DD's things and I've been to lazy to go hunting.LOL We have several inches of snow and it's Punk |

| I knew we were not going to use our Christmas cups, so this is what I did with them last year. (Just trying out posting pics, if pic does not appear, please disregard.) |

| I love it! Keep posting and I may get started decorating this weekend yet.LOL Punk |

| Keep those photos coming ;o). The cups look so pretty in the big cloche. I really like your tip and usually remember to take pictures of new stuff. Mainly cause I want to share them here, but it ends up reminding me what I have bought. Trouble is, I keep "losing" things like some of the others on our Forum. (at least I'm in good company). Maybe I should lay a trail of bread crumbs. LOL. Each year when I pack stuff up, I feel so organized. And each year I can't find something when I need it. So much for being organized. hugs, Karen |
