(1 Hr. 45 Mins.)Each holiday season, families across the nation send Christmas cards, search for stocking-shaped cookie cutters and line up to see Santa at the mall-all in the name of holiday traditions.
While these cherished activities never go out of style, it can be fun to mix up your family's traditions to give a chic, modern twist to your classic Christmas cards, carols and cookies. Read on for some great tips for updating your family's parties, dcor and Christmas cards this year.
The first step in modernizing traditional holiday activities involves redefining your family's style-have your children outgrown visits with Santa and the parade of cartoon characters you've traditionally had on your Christmas cards?
Schedule a shoot with a photographer at the beach, on the slopes or in the botanical gardens this year and opt for a sleek and stylish photo Christmas card instead. You could even encourage your teenagers to send their own cool, personalized Christmas cards to their groups of friends to save them the utter embarrassment of sending a family photo on a Christmas card to their peers.
Another fun way to jazz up your jolly holiday traditions is by turning your classic activities into fun holiday parties! Send Christmas cards or invitations to all your friends as a way to organize a caroling party or a cookie decorating party. If you have exceptionally talented friends and family members, you can invite them over for a holiday decorating party and let them deck the halls with you. Or, you can even host a Christmas card decorating party for younger kids and craft-loving parents alike!
No matter what your family's holiday traditions are, it's important to let them evolve as your family grows and changes-otherwise, you might end up with the same cartoons on your Christmas cards year after year! 'Tis the season to showcase your style, so have some fun and give your celebration a fun, modern twist.
