How Christmas is too Christmas?

I decorate the house including tree and outside lights, have a Christmas jumper as do the kids (as well as other Christmas clothes including PJs), and read Christmas books to them throughout December. We have (chocolate) advent calendars and a Christmas puzzle that gets an airing each year.

I always thought that, as far as Christmas "stuff" goes, Christmas bed linen was a step too far. I have had a complete mind change on this and am absolutely 100% getting Christmas themed bed linen for myself and kids this year.

Just browsing and noticed that you can get Christmas themed crockery... again feel this is a step too far (would you only use it on Xmas day?) Does anyone have it and it brings them joy? What Christmas themed objects do you have that may seem a step too far for other people?

I think it depends on your budget.

If you want the most classy keepsake ornaments for the tree - really perfect gifts to give, (or for yourself!) take a look at Tom Martin London baubles. Hand painted from the inside of the sphere- and the gift packaging is absolutely stunning. The sort of gift to start collecting and look forward to each year to give and explain how it’s done to a child or a grandchild. Love them!

A relative has a comp!ete set of Portmeirion Christmas dinnerware, collected over several years. It does have its own cupboard.

We have Christmas bedding here I like the idea of Christmas crockery but storage is an issue
