I know a lot of people think Christmas in July is just another marketing ploy but it's become something very special to me. No matter how long I live in my beloved corner of the Southern Hemisphere my heart will not adapt to Summer = Christmastime.
As soon as a slight chill hits the air my mind goes into holiday mode even if it is May.
I usually have our Halloween party invitation done and printed by June.
I hunt out every possible Christmas in July event I can find in the greater Melbourne area.
Last year was extra important because my Mom was here and I knew I wouldn't
see her at Christmas. We had the best time together at both CIJ celebrations at the Cuckoo Restaurant and Sovereign Hill (pictures above).
The upside of my insides being confused is I really feel like making Christmas ornaments when it's cold so it sort of kicks off my season with the big Christmas in July sale on Etsy.
Happy Christmas in July Everyone!!
