Have you ever heard a song, then had it go round and round in your head most of the day? And if the song has lyrics, you can't remember all of them. Then you're stuck trying to remember. If this happens with the 12 Days of Christmas, you can find the lyrics to this and many songs at MetroLyrics. Here are the first 3 days worth:

On the first day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
A Partridge in a Pear Tree

On the second day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Two Turtle Doves
and a Partridge in a Pear Tree

On the third day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Three French Hens
Two Turtle Doves
and a Partridge in a Pear Tree

Art and design: Christmas websites

Today's mission was to find some of the best non-commercial websites online in the last 2 years. I return empty-handed. If you want to buy something, be inspired with lovely Christmas templates (to buy), or go to church, you're in luck.

The recent lists of best websites mostly tout flat design anyway, which frankly I find flat. That is, without any visual interest. Perhaps the best list about Christmas in general is the Telegraph's Christmas 2015. Christmas.com may hold some treasures for you.

If you want a template for your own website, take a look at Christmas Templates 2015: A List Of 14 Best Templates For Professional Blogs And Websites. If Wordpress is your CMS (content management system) of choice, there's 10 Best WordPress Christmas themes 2015. (Note: some links at Design Maz point to discontinued themes. Go figure.) Here's a live demo of the Christmas Lights theme from TemplateMonster.

The site iSkysoft has a good list of free Christmas images. Many of the links point to wallpapers; these can be resized to be usable as smaller images, as shown here.
