Smiley360 teamed up with Kmart recently and sent me a $15 gift card to do some Christmas shopping! Ever since I was a little girl my mother has always said she wanted a purple Christmas tree, so this year I helped make her dream come true!!
Purple glass ornaments! $12.99 for 28!!
I have a thing for birds so I had to sneak in a few birds 🙂
Cute little birds!
I spent $43.67 all together, after paying with my $15 gift card I paid $28.67!
I highly suggest heading to your local Kmart to do your holiday decor shopping! My local Kmart had FOUR aisle of holiday decor! Kmart also has a wonderful selection online.
I have decided to share one of my PERSONAL family traditions with my wonderful readers. Ever since I was a child, My family would sprinkle what we call “Reindeer Food”. I have provided some background information and a recipe below!
In a small ziplock bag combine
1/2 cup uncooked oatmeal
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup red or green sugar crystals(found in frosting aisle)
PLEASE BE Kind to the animals and do not use glitter! Wildlife eat the glitter and its not good for them
Here is the poem that goes along with the reindeer food.
Be sure to take this magic food and sprinkle on the lawn,
On Christmas, Santa’s reindeer travel miles before the dawn.
The smell of oats and glitter path will guide them on their way
And you’ll wake up to Santa’s gifts next morn on Christmas Day!
On Christmas, Santa’s reindeer travel miles before the dawn.

And you’ll wake up to Santa’s gifts next morn on Christmas Day!
Enjoy everyone!
