Christmas Planner

A holiday planner seems to be a good idea for keeping things altogether. This is one I made from a Mead composition book.
The cover was layered with Christmas paper, the Bigz die cut letters in the Twang font.

The different sections tabs were inked shipping tags inbetween the glued together pages.


Include a calendar for scheduling...


A place for decorations. It's surprisingly easy to forget something you really liked when the next holiday arrives.

And the food! Don't forget the food, the recipes, the menus you liked.
Write the recipes on cards and include them so you don't have to look them up every year.









Have pages for photos of past decorations. Make a list for each year.

And all your favorite Christmas traditions--You will enjoy reading them from year to year, and they will be a treasure for your children.





Your book will become more important to you every year--more like a journal of the best of times!
Don't wait to put one together. You'll want to use it THIS year!
