The printables for the Christmas Planners for 2017 are here! I love that each year they are a little different and it’s always so exciting to kick off the holiday season by making my Christmas Planner.
We always head out to one of the only scrapbook stores we have left here and start the hunt for Christmas scrapbook paper. Then Jamie takes those fun papers and makes our Christmas planner printables for the year. I am just in LOVE with the papers we found this year. We used the Oh What Fun collection from My Mind’s Eye and the Fa La collection from Crate Paper. So, so cute!!
Here’s What You’ll Need: [affiliate links included]
- Composition Notebook – I accidentally bought ones with a thin plastic type cover this year. They ended up working great, because the inside cover is just a solid color and looks better than the thick cardstock type ones that have writing on them.
- Christmas Papers – We used My Mind’s Eye, Oh What Fun collection and Crate Paper’s Fa La collection
- 6×9 Envelopes
- Glue Dots
- Paper Trimmer and Scissors
- Pencil
- Stapler and Staples
- Ribbon (optional)
- Christmas Planner Printables – Reds, Pinks and Greens – Matches the Oh What Fun Collection
- Christmas Planner Printables – Pinks, Greens and Dark Teal – Match the Fa La Collection
There’s no right or wrong way to make your Christmas Planner. We make them a little different every year and every year we make them a little different than each other even. You can find a simple set of instructions HERE and HERE.
I carry my Christmas planner EVERYwhere I go from now until December 25th. It keeps me organized with all my lists, coupons, receipts and more all in one place.
You can see in the picture below how nice the plastic notebooks look on the inside. The ones that have the thick cardstock covers have a bunch of writing on the inside of the front and back cover. I usually cover those whole pages with white cardstock, but this new type of composition notebook saved me from having to do that. Yay. 🙂
We sure love getting all your emails asking about these each year. It makes us so happy that they are part of your Christmas traditions like us. Gather with some friends and family and have a fun night of planner making. It’s always a good time!

These planners are so cute! I have been using mine for years and it is a favorite! Do you buy the paper online or can you buy it at Michael’s or Joann’s? It’s so cute!
Thank you!! I unfortunately have not seen the papers at Michaels or Joann. We have linked in the post to the papers on amazon. Or you can find all of them on scrapbook.com I believe. 🙂
When I try to print this out it is two big for my regular printer. Is there something I am doing wrong?
It’s sized to 8×10. So you could actually have it printed at a photo lab like costco or walmart. But you can print it at home. Once you download it you should have somewhere where you can choose to print it as an 8×10. Or even somewhere where you can choose to have it “fit to page”? I hope that helps!!
I am thrilled to see these back! They are always a favorite! I am looking at the calendar site (from an earlier year) and cannot remember the name of the weekly calendar pages. Thank you for your help!
I’ve updated the link that will (hopefully) take you directly to the one we used. I found it here: https://www.calendarlabs.com/calendars/free-weekly-calendar.php
First let me say how very much I LOVE your Christmas Planner every year. Thanks so much for sharing those treasures with us… NOW for the big ???? …. will there be a Christmas Planner 2018 coming out soon?
Thanks for all you do!
Makes us so happy to hear that you love the planners as much as we do! We usually try to get the new one out within the first two weeks of November. 🙂
Love these planners every year! Will you share the paper collections you are planning to use so we can be ready? Thank you so much!
We just picked them out yesterday! Yay! We are using papers by Pebbles, the adorable Cozy and Bright collection!! 🙂
Thank you!
Thank you – great use of envelopes and composition books. A 3rings is too big to go shopping with!
I agree! This one even fits in my purse most of the time. 🙂
