5 Days of Minimalist Christmas Traditions

Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year.  There is so much to love about this season: the music, the happy children, the food, the family.  There's also a lot of hardship that comes with the season. Busyness. Stress.  Financial hardship.  I'd like to share a few of my favourite Minimalist Christmas Traditions that may help combat some of the not-so-nice parts of this holiday season.

A few years ago, I wrote about how we did a minimalist Christmas.  When we took our focus off of the "stuff" that usually comes with this season, we were blown away by how much better our Christmases became!

All of the Christmas traditions that I will talk about fit perfectly with simple lifestyle that we strive to live.  They are all budget friendly, consumer conscious, environmentally friendly and focus on the important things in life, especially enjoying the people you share it with!

Even if you are not a minimalist, I encourage you to check out these posts.  We can all benefit from a little simplifying and a lot of this stuff is just plain fun!
