Healthy elves love exercise. ’Tis the season to be snotty, so be sure to get at least 15 minutes of it daily to keep ur immune system jolly!

Winterize your water: turn off outdoor water supply, empty/detach garden hose, and use a faucet cover to protect against the freeze!

Creative gift idea: IOUs! Take over a chore for a loved one for a year...and stick to it! Nothing says I love you more than doing dishes or laundry.

Simplify a gift wrapping rampage by using a paper towel holder: slide your ribbon spools onto its post, largest to smallest, bottom to top! 

Give gifts wisely. Myrrh and frankincense are fine, but how about something homemade (photos) or tickets to a show, movie, or game?

Viva la Vinegar! Avoid sticker shock with white vinegar. Warm a little, soak a rag with it, then press to price tags & bumper stickers. Peels right off.

A high-wire act that’s low stress? Attach 2 lengths of wire, side-by-side, to store wrapping paper against the ceiling and out of sight!
