Here are some of the best Christmas blog posts I have read lately. Very helpful, fun, and interesting! Be sure to check them out for yourself!

• Four great bloggers teamed up to do a series called "Beautiful Christmas On A Budget." There are some really great ideas! My 2 favorites were homemade candy canes and decorating your home for pennies. Go check out some of the awesome advice!
• Six other great bloggers did a series called "Christmas In The Kitchen" with some really yummy recipe ideas! Be sure to print your favorites to try out in your own kitchen!
  
• Alyssa, over at Kingdom First Mom, did a great post on what the Bible says about money. I think it's really important to keep our priorities straight during the Christmas season, especially in regards to money.
  
• The Happy Housewife shares some of her "Frugal Christmas Traditions" to get you in the spirit without breaking the bank! Who says you have to spend money in order to enjoy the season and do fun activities?
• Myra, over at Happy Housewife Living Life, shares a really fun idea: Make your own candy cane chandelier! How cool!
• Lauren, over at Heavenly Homemakers, has a great step by step tutorial on how to make your own simple homemade angel ornament. Wow! So nifty (and thrifty!)
• Crystal, over at Money Saving Mom, has a few great posts about celebrating a simple Christmas. Check these out : Homemade Wrapping Paper, Homemade Hot Drink Mixes, and Homemade Gift Bows (from recycled magazines).

Enjoy reading! =) Hope you're able to use some of these ideas in your gift-giving, baking, and Christmas fun!
