Holly, Jolly
Target Christmas

November 29, 2017

Yes, Thanksgiving was barely a memory and people were speeding down my street with trees strapped to the top of their car.  Pumpkins getting dumped in the trash.  Leftover turkey thrown into a pot of chili.


I am just happy  we have a grand total of  32 days between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year!

 
I am not the organized Christmas person with gifts purchased and wrapped in August.


I tend to meander through holidays, sipping the last vestige of a Pumpkin Spice Latte while it is being erased from the drink board.


I usually do a last minute Target run for the Thanksgiving turkey pan or some other thing I have forgotten.  This is when the Christmas stuff is newly on the shelves….  I am seduced by the lack of crowds and fresh, clean holiday swag all around me.  Hence, my third year doing a Target Christmas post.


I find ADORABLE stuff there every year, like this $4.00 reindeer mug and $4.00 reindeer ornament.


$5.99 wine stoppers.  Tie these to holiday napkins for a cute hostess gift.


Love this $17.99 Christmas Tree table runner and matching plaid napkins ($9.99 for four).  My holiday table this year is set!

Little holiday bags for $1.00.


A tweed stocking for an unexpected guest.  Festive pom poms and a leather handle $13.00.


$20.00 Target Holiday Truck decor!


A $5.00 mini ornament version of the Target truck and $1.99 drink tumblers.


Bring this $5.00 Santa flask to your next paddle game or ice-skating at Wollman rink!


It’s hard for me to pass up a Nutcracker….  I have admittedly overdone it with these, so my daughter got this $10.00 Nutcracker for her new apartment, but I kept the two $9.00 fuzzy white trees.


Here is my little wine stopper with $3.00 holly jolly cocktail napkins!


Then there are the ornaments…  I find so many cute ornaments at Target every year.  There is a little hunting involved, but it is well worth it.  Plaid snowflake $3.00, plaid Santa on a bike $6.00.


2017 Holiday door ornament $5.00, Christmas barn ornament $5.00.


Wooden sled ornament $5.00.


VERY cute stuff.  There is no relationship between The Wry Home and Target (unfortunately).  They  wouldn’t know me if they fell over me!


Here is my own holiday contribution – two festive candles!

I have loved design ever since I painted my bedroom walls high-gloss lime green in the fourth grade. A lifelong hobby, mixing low cost items with a few pricier pieces thrown in, has become The Wry Home. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t!
