Organizing for Christmas
A couple of years ago I started a Christmas tradition of my very own--and it has become one of my favorites! It's a Christmas notebook. Because there are so many activities, events, things to do, etc., this has become an invaluable tool, plus, once the season is over it becomes a wonderful record of that year's Christmas!
It's really very simple. I take a three-ring, inch-and-a-half binder, create section dividers on festive Christmas stationery, and begin making my lists, filling in my calendar, etc. I use clear sheet protectors for those items won't fit any other way.
Some of the sections I include are:
Calendar & Events
Gift Lists
Christmas Letter & Card List
Craft Ideas & Recipes
Holiday Memories
This year I even added a list of possible projects to do for school.
Of course one of the beautiful things about this idea is that you can tailor it to fit you, your schedule, and your family perfectly!
It sure makes checking my list twice all the easier! ;-)
