christmas to do list

Hey lovely readers!

It's Caroline from Citrus and Style here today guest posting for the fabulous Chloe. That lucky lady is on a ski trip right now. {so jealous.}

Anywho, Christmas is sneaking up so quickly! With exams, it was so difficult to get into the holiday spirit while still studying. Here are 11 fun and easy ways to Christmas it up!

1. Make a Christmas playlist on Spotify, your iPod or Pandora. You can sing joy to the world while still getting some last minute wrapping done!

2. Watch your favorite Christmas movie. Elf, A Christmas Story and Home Alone are some of my favorites ;)

3. Decorate a gingerbread house. I've found these for super cheap at Michaels and they are actually really fun!

4. Do a Christmas photo shoot. Dress up in your favorite Christmas sweater, sparkly jewelry and reindeer antlers!

5. Do volunteer work. Volunteer at a homeless shelter or soup kitchen for an hour or two. Nothing feels better than helping the less fortunate, especially right before Christmas.

6. Treat yourself with a peppermint hot chocolate from Starbucks. Who can argue with that?

7. Write some new years resolutions. When you are done, record them on a slip of paper and slip them into your stocking. See how you did next year!

8. Take a relaxing bubble bath with a delightful Christmasy scented soap.

9. ELF your friends and family. So fun!

10. Scroll through some Christmas Pinterest boards. There's nothing like Christmas on Pinterest! Here's a link to mine.

11. Sit back and enjoy a good book by the tree. Soak in the beautiful scenery of Christmas!

Happy Holidays to everyone! I hope you have a divine holiday (and break from your hard work)!

to do lists galore

as some of you know, i have been going through a lot of heath issues lately. that's a pretty weird way to start a post about to do lists, but i just want to let you know that today (which will be yesterday) i went to a pelvic pain doctor, because i have been having extreme extreme stomach pain (which is also called pelvic pain i guess?). anyway i had to get this super intense muscle massage thing on my stomach, and because it was so intense i was given a prescription for muscle relaxers. i took one pill tonight, and although my mom continuously told me that i was acting "loopy" i felt fine. i'm writing this as i'm on muscle relaxers late at night, and with the combination of those two things i just wanted to explain myself if the writing on this post makes (a. no sense and (b. can be described as "loopy" 

i'm not going to post this until the morning, so i can go back and make sure i didn't add in any weird stuff, so i'm not 100% sure that this post will actually be posted.

ok anyway..

as summer winds down and school is about to start back up i feel like i have been seeing a ton of peoples to-do lists on twitter, tumblr, instagram, pinterest, and other social media websites. most people's to-do lists are super boring, and just jotted down on a random boring sticky note, so i decided that i'm going to help y'all out and give you some fun sticky note writing material to write on (was that a confusing sentence?). here are a few that i've already made, and feel free to save these to your computer and print them out! if you want a monogramed one, just leave a comment telling me which lilly background or what type of pattern you want, and i'll totally make you a cute to-do list for the great price of free! also, in the comments tell me whether you want the arrow bullet points or the box bullet points. 

bee-tee-dubs, if you want one of the ones below with a different print just holler at me (leave a comment)! 

oh, and i realize that the "sh*t to get done" to-do lists aren't that classy, but they're funny so deal with it.

if you want me to make you a personalized one

leave a comment like this:

"omg you're the best blogger i know, i'd love a to-do list with the clam jam lilly print, i want mine to have my monogram on it which is cGs, and i'd like the arrow bullet points with the days of the week underneath my monogram! thanks so much!"

also make sure you leave your e-mail address!!  

thanks for reading!!

sleepover movies!

even though summer is starting to wind down, i have just been craving a good movie! i've put together a little list called "sleepover movies" (creative i know, no need to tell me), and they are pretty much my top movies that i've either watched at a sleepover or just with a friend! i think they are all around funny, cute, and sweet which makes the perfect summer/sleepover movie! i honestly don't like watching depressing movies (although i do like reading depressing books -- kinda weird), so these movies are just fun happy ones! i hope you like this list! 

let me know your top favorite fun movie! or five, because i've got time;)

thanks for reading!!
