Create Christmas 2016
It’s time for my 5th annual Christmas series!
December is nearly here, can you believe it? I know I can’t! This year seems to have rushed by so fast, I wish time would slow down a little bit!
On a personal level, I’ve been having quite tough time of things with my mental health for a good year or so now, and along the way, I know my blog has also suffered. I may write about that in another blog post, or I may not, i’m not sure how I feel about that. Thing is, for the first time in a long time I feel like I am breaking through to the other side, so I am hoping that I’ve now come full circle – time will tell.
Anyway, back to this post. I couldn’t keep up with the seasonal series that I do here. Create Christmas 2015 was not complete, and neither was Crafty October for 2016. I plan to change that for the final shout of year!
Normally I start on the 1st December, and try to do a post a day – that means I would usually post 31 ideas for the duration of the series. I’m running things a little bit differently this year, in fact I’ve already started with the festive posts, and it makes sense to start this series now!

I plan to share 31 Christmas related posts be it a craft, recipe, printable, gift guide, roundup, fashion, or whatever (!) relating to the festive season, until 25th December. Here are the previous years in this series:
2012 | 2013 | 2014 | 2015
Last year I created 6 cute little characters to use across my free printables. This year, I’ve added another 2 to the collection, so they’ll all feature again in 2016 – especially as I didn’t get as many printables made last year as I would have like. Here they all are again – I love them just as much as when I first made them last year!
