Thanks! I will give these a try and see which ends up being easier. Either way, 
it sounds like I've got a full day's work
ahead of me. (smile)

Hi,

After you've created, and added your music to a playlist go to it in the 
sources table.  Then VO right arrow over to the
music table and interact.  Each song has  a checkbox. Just find the box and 
uncheck them manually or, after you interact with
the table press command A to select all then bring up the context menu with VO 
shift M and select uncheck selections.

To create a new iTunes library hold down the option key while iTunes is 
opening.  A dialog will ask you to choose or create a
new library.  Pick create.  Then all you have to do is just import only your 
christmas music.

if that's easier. Instructions for both option would be extremely appreciated 
if you could provide them.

think about it a little more, I don't see why you couldn't make a brand new 
music library and just put your christmas music
in it.  Actually, thats probably the best way to go here.
