Countdown to Christmas – Day Three – A Christmas Planner

Hello everyone.  It’s my turn to share a project, and today I’m sharing a way to stay organized for the busy season ahead.

For the last few Christmases I have always felt that I’ve been trying to play catch-up and constantly trying to remember what I need to do.  This year, I decided to make myself a simple planner – separate from my regular planner, to help keep me organized.  I spent a lot of time online, looking for something that I could just print out.  There are a lot of free printables out there!  Some of them were really great, too!  However, I kept coming back to THIS ONE that I found on Etsy.  I purchased it, and printed off what I needed.  Then I quickly assembled it into something that I can drag around with me for the next month-and-a-half.

I made my own cover but grabbing some older Chrismtas paper from my stash, and added some older embellishments from my stash as well.  The idea was to keep this simple and quick.  It’s going to be manhandled a lot so I didn’t want a lot of bulk, or weight.

To assemble it, I used my Arc punch (which is the same system as the MAMBI Happy Planner), and punched all the papers, including the covers, and added the rings.  I will easily be able to add more pages, as needed, or even add in flyers, or other papers that I need to keep organized.  All I will need to do is punch them and slip them in.

Here’s a look at some of the pages inside:
