What are you going to put in it?

We decided I will fill evens and my boo will fill odds. I found a pretty nifty list that includes stuff besides candy, so I'm hoping I can get ideas from it. Also I'm thinking it might be nice to be on the lookout for small stuff throughout the year to collect for it. 💜

You and your Boo are absolute Couple Goals! Good on y'all and well done on your craft. Thank you for sharing.

Aaww 😍 Thank you! We've been through some rough stuff, so I spent a lot of this past Christmas working on coming up with our own traditions.

One I super loved was a crock pot breakfast. Toss everything in the night before and wake up to a breakfast scramble! We also decided to get one gift for the 2 of us (like a vast iron skillet or a bedding set) each year. I googled the everloving heck out of ideas for Christmas traditions. 💜
