6 Signs that Are Obsessed With The Holidays

The holiday season brings cheer, excitement, and a flurry of traditions that many eagerly anticipate all year long.

But if you’re holiday-obsessed, you likely take that seasonal joy to a whole new level!

Here are six tell-tale signs that reveal you might be more than just a little bit into the holidays.

1. You Start Decorating… Way Early! 🎄

The Halloween candy hasn’t even been fully distributed, but you’re already eyeing holiday decor. You may even pull out the decorations as soon as the weather starts to cool, filling your home with tinsel, ornaments, and lights. While others are easing into the season, you’re all in with festive decorations.

• Possible Symptoms: You might have multiple trees, a vast array of holiday lights, or a whole storage unit dedicated just to holiday decor.
• Why It’s a Sign: True holiday lovers can’t resist an early start; they want to make the season last as long as possible!

2. You Have a Playlist… And It Starts Playing in November! 🎶

If you’ve got a holiday playlist ready to roll on November 1st (or even earlier!), this could be a big sign of your holiday obsession. While some people only tolerate holiday tunes after Thanksgiving, you’ve already got a mix of classics and modern hits on repeat.

• Key Indicators: Familiar with every version of “Jingle Bells” or “All I Want for Christmas is You.”
• Why It’s a Sign: Music is one of the most festive parts of the season, and holiday aficionados know all the best tracks to start setting the mood.

3. You Have a Collection of Holiday Sweaters and Pajamas 🎅

Holiday enthusiasts often have an entire wardrobe dedicated to festive fashion. Ugly holiday sweaters, cozy reindeer pajamas, or perhaps a set of matching PJs for the family photo—this is a true mark of someone who embraces holiday fashion.

• Tell-Tale Clues: You rotate holiday sweaters weekly, and family members know to expect holiday-themed pajamas on Christmas Eve.
• Why It’s a Sign: Only a true fan of the season will stock up on clothes they can only wear for a few weeks each year.

4. You Bake Enough Holiday Treats to Feed an Army 🍪

Baking cookies, cakes, and other holiday treats might be a small part of the season for some, but if you’re holiday-obsessed, it’s practically a second job! You probably have an arsenal of cookie cutters, sprinkles, and frosting tips—and maybe even a secret family recipe that you whip out every year.

• Tell-Tale Clues: Your kitchen turns into a holiday factory, and you’ve got dozens of cookie tins ready for distribution to family, friends, and neighbors.
• Why It’s a Sign: Holiday fans love to spread the sweetness of the season, literally!

5. You Throw (or Attend) Every Possible Holiday Event 🎉

Parades, tree-lighting ceremonies, gingerbread decorating parties—if it’s holiday-related, you’re there! Whether it’s hosting a big gathering or traveling to check out neighborhood light displays, you make sure the entire season is filled with holiday events.

• Key Indicators: You have a calendar filled with events from December 1st to New Year’s Eve and might even plan your own holiday party.
• Why It’s a Sign: For those obsessed with the holidays, attending or hosting events is about making memories and keeping the holiday spirit alive.

6. You Go All Out with Gift Giving 🎁

Thoughtful gifts, handmade presents, and perhaps even a personal gift-wrapping station—these are all signs that you take the gift-giving tradition seriously. Holiday enthusiasts are often as excited about giving as they are about celebrating, with gifts that are meticulously planned and prepared.

• Tell-Tale Clues: You keep a gift list all year, stashing away items that remind you of loved ones. Also, your gift wrapping looks like it’s straight out of a magazine.
• Why It’s a Sign: Only a holiday lover would put so much time and effort into creating joy for others with each perfect gift.

If you recognize yourself in these six signs, you’re definitely obsessed with the holiday season! The joy, excitement, and sense of togetherness are truly worth celebrating, and you bring it all together with style and passion. Keep spreading the cheer and let your holiday spirit shine!
