About


Hey, friend! I’m Suzy, and – Grinchy face aside – I’m the jolly elf behind Christmas Giving. (Yeah, that’s both sides of me in the pics above.)
I’m here to help you discover the greatest Gift the world has ever known.
Aside from the gift of Jesus (see more at How to Know Jesus), I have gift-giving guides for you.
Whether you’re searching for the perfect gift or looking to add a little extra cheer to your holly jolly gatherings, I’ve got you covered.
I’m working hard to curate gift lists with ideas for every recipient on your list. It’s not all about to-do lists and shopping carts, though. I’ll be sure to sprinkle in some giveaways and games just for fun! (Visit my Instagram page for weekly inspiration and the occasional Grinchy surprise.)
As I build out the website (brand new as of late November 2024), I’ll be uploading holiday printables to help you stay organized and sane. (Suggestions are welcome! Submit ideas on my Contact page.)
The site will evolve as I get new ideas, and my goal is to provide content that you’ll return to throughout the year – not just at Christmastime – although Christmas 365 days a year doesn’t sound bad to me, at all. LOL
Most important of all: I want to help bolster your faith by sharing the true spirit of the season. That’s why we’re going to delve into heartfelt discussions about Jesus and His enduring message of hope, love, and redemption. Join me as I reflect on the reason for the season and embrace the joy of giving.
Thank you for visiting. I hope to make your Christmas brighter and more meaningful this year. Let’s create some beautiful memories together!
With warmth and cheer,
Suzy “Crazy for Christmas” Oakley
