Falling for Fall

93 daysFor those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, today is the first day of fall (or autumn, if you prefer). This is the season that takes us right up to the doorstep of Christmas.

Countdown to ChristmasToday’s Countdown to Christmas Challenge will not involve your holiday planner. Go down into your basement or up into your attic and rustle up your fall decor – anything pumpkin, harvest, or apple-themed is fair game – to be festively placed around your home. If it seems your seasonal decor is all mixed together, today would be a great day to locate some large boxes or tubs and label them with Fall Labels* or your own. Simply print out the labels and then tape them to the boxes, or print the labels onto adhesive-backed paper for convenience.

Visit the 100 Days to Christmas Facebook page and let us know what fall project you tackled today!

* Available as a download in the 100 Days to Christmas 2011 eBook.  Members to ListPlanIt.com can print or download Holiday Budget Planner in Holidays & Occasions as a worksheet for your Christmas budget.
