Did you notice how many companies advertised Christmas in July? Yea, me too. I have Christmas items in my shop, but it is hard to get in the mood to create more when the view out my window is of bright sunshine, lush green grass and an enticing blue body of water. Seriously, let me take a quick iPhone picture for you as I am typing this from by bedroom.

Christmas? Really in July?  In Minnesota, we savor every warm and sunny day.  We only get about 3 months of this great sunshine, so jumping ahead to the next season isn’t a good idea.

But I knew I needed to get my Holiday items ready, sunshine or snow.

I made my list of ideas, checked it twice…see what I did there?  Totally into the Holiday mood now.

Here is a sneak peek at what Christmas in July August looks like at OldLakeGeorge.

Has anyone started making a Christmas gift idea list?

Have you said to yourself something like, “I love that gold star pillow but I wish OLG had a gold Christmas tree also.”

Or maybe you have a festive opinion about  the items in the shop?  I would love to hear from you!
