Here Sarah's groovy green tips for Thursday, December 2nd:

• I asked my daughter yesterday to make out her Christmas list for Santa and she immediately went to the computer to not only write the list, but to include pictures of some of the items so Santa will know exactly what to get her. The days of crayons and construction paper are over, I guess!
• Did you know you can arrange with your bank to receive your statement online? It’s a great way to save paper and clutter around the desk!

I told my husband this morning I wanted to start our holiday decorating earlier this year-this evening, to be specific. That’s not normal for me, I usually don’t get into the holiday mood until the third week of December, but with the economy and current events in the news, I’m feeling the need for jingle bells, garland and the smell of a pine tree in my living room. Know the feeling? As they sang in the show, Mame, I need a little Christmas or I guess, any holiday would do. Of course, I’m not encouraging anyone to head out and buy brand new decorations. That would be somewhat counter productive! Instead, I love to find ways to use what we already have in a new way. Do you have any plain Christmas ball ornaments? With some Elmers Glue and glitter, your kids, with your help, could make brand new decorations for the tree this year. The old popcorn chain, go one step further and put a bit of glue and glitter on pieces of popcorn, not all just some to accent the chain. It’ll really catch the lights of the tree! Do you love to display holiday cards? Don’t put them in one spot this year, instead distribute them throughout the house, they can add to the festive atmosphere! Lots of decorating ideas and all of them free! Jingle all the way on the Go Green Ride at Five on 92.1 WVTK!
