Ready for the holidays? I know, me neither. But it’s coming and you know how fast it comes and goes. So this week I went in search for ways to help you and me ease into the holiday rush with fun finds that will help get you organized and ready for another season of Christmas cards and gift giving.

Display your holiday cards, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas cards with this curly wire holder from Pottery Barn. Keep all those gift bags organized with this organizer from Target. And the Wall Mounted Craft Organizer, also from Pottery Barn, keeps all your wrapping equipment neat and tidy.

Do you often forget people’s birthdays?

In honor of my birthday and everyone else whose birthday is today, Happy Birthday! Here’s a list of things you can do so you won’t forget anymore birthdays this year.

1) Google Birthdays. Google has a feature that allows you to add a birthdays section to your home page. The service is free and an easy reminder since you’ll see it as soon as you open up your Google personal page.

2) Yahoo Calendar. Like Google, you can add in special dates to your online calendar for free.

3) Organize your greeting cards. Get a stylish organizer to organize cards for friends and family. The one I had from GfDG Studio is great since it has monthly tabs with space to write their names.
