Last Minute Holiday Checklist

Prepping for Christmas in advance can be a great way to avoid the stress and chaos of the annual holiday frenzy. The responsibilities surrounding Christmas can be so overwhelming that it is easy to forget those final little tasks. OTBT has created a Christmas preparation checklist for anyone who needs help pulling off an organized holiday season. Take a look at some of our most helpful holiday reminders.

Don’t Forget to Run those Last Minute Holiday Errands

We know this is a crazy time that we live in, especially now that the holidays are upon us. Even if you didn’t get a head start on your Christmas planning, you still have time left! In the next few weeks leading up to Christmas, don’t forget to get all your last minute errands in, whether it be mailing your Christmas cards, going to the grocery to stock up on treats, ordering some last minute gifts or finishing up your wrapping. You are bound to be busy during the holiday season so treat yourself to our Copa canvas and leather tote. Copa is roomy enough for all of your essentials which makes it perfect for a day running errands.

Make Sure All the Final Decorations Are Up

One of the best traditions of the holiday season is getting all those festive decorations up. Take a day to make sure that you have all your final decorations in order, from your tree to your wreaths to the garlands! Decorating the Christmas tree is always such a fun experience so take some time to do so with your family for some fun bonding.

Secure Your last Minute Stocking Stuffers

One thing that can always be overlooked is last minute stocking stuffers. You may have secured your big gifts weeks ago and then put the small stuffers off until the last minute-- it’s ok, we all do it. If you’re looking for some stocking stuffer inspiration, the Corina wristlet accompanied along with an OTBT gift card is perfect for any lady in your life.

Finish up Your Holiday Baking

A few days before Christmas Eve, you’re going to want to start baking all those delicious holiday cookies, cakes and pies, because what’s Christmas without dessert? This is another great way to spend time with family around the holidays. Baking with family and friends is one of the best ways to get excited for the holidays. Alstead in dove grey is the perfect sneaker for all things in the kitchen. If you’re on your feet for hours baking, you are going to want to be wearing something comfortable to keep you going all day.

Finally, Don't Forget to Enjoy the Holiday

Last but certainly not least, please do not forget to sit back and enjoy this amazing time of year. In a year as crazy as 2020, it is more important than ever to take a step back and be thankful for what is really important in life. The holiday season is for spending time with loved ones, so make sure to carve some time out for fun festivities with friends and family. Whether it’s decorating Christmas cookies or driving around to admire the lights, be sure to spend time with those you love.

We hope this last minute holiday checklist has been helpful in your holiday planning. Everything this year is very uncertain so it is important to make the holidays as cheerful and stress-free as possible. Happy Holidays and happy planning!
