In this session on planning holly-jolly frugal holidays, Marcia Wilwerding will be sharing tried and true ideas for making your celebrations special without breaking the bank. You will see how it is possible to plan delightful decorations, enjoyable entertainments, and no-guilt giving on even the slimmest budget.
with Leslie Valeska This has been quite a year for most of us. In many cases we are experiencing aspects of life that haven't been as pressing or stressful in a long time.
Over the years gifting has changed dramatically. Until recently giving simple and handmade gifts gave many the feeling of "poor" or "inadequate." We allowed oursleves to be conditioned to think that a $10 pre-made gift basket was a more worthy gift than a similar and personal one we put together for $3.50.
In this session Leslie will discuss the ideas of simple and elegant gifts for everyone on your list this year. Think you can't come up with a simple and personalized gift for the men on your list? Think Again! Leslie will tell you all the secrets of how to make a successful plan that YOU CAN accomplish this year. What do you have to look forward to? How about a gift giving season filled with the giving of thought filled, personalized gifts that allow you to keep your budget in place? She will even share some of her favorite ideas for gifts she has made for her children! Come and be inspired by how to plan your gift giving and make this the most meaningful and simple Chrsitmas season yet!
