There's no busier time for moms than Christmas. With all the family activities, gift lists, shopping, parties... it's all fun but can get stressful fast. That's why you need a Christmas Planner to get organized so you can enjoy your holiday instead of stressing over to do lists and last minute surprises.
I love my Happy Planner all year round, but especially at Christmas. I can easily turn my Happy Planner into a DIY Christmas Planner to organize holiday schedules, plan my budget, coordinate holiday parties and dinners so I feel more in control, less stressed, and ready to enjoy the holiday.
Sounds great, right? I want to help you have a less stressful Christmas too, so I have a huge set of Christmas planning pages and accessories to make your own DIY Christmas Planner for the Happy Planner.
DIY Christmas Planner for Happy Planner
While I do love the Happy Planner, you do not have to use it to make your own DIY planner. These printables can be resized to fit any planner or can be used in a regular 3 ring binder too.
Or if you really want to make it easy, you can buy my Christmas Planner in paperback on Amazon here.
What I love most about the Happy Planner system is that it's sturdy, comes in 3 sizes, and you can mix and match sections to create your perfect planner. (Seriously, frankenplanning is a thing).
You can make a stand alone Christmas planner or simply choose the pages you need most as separate sections in your current Happy Planner. The choice is yours!
First, you'll need my printable Christmas Planner Set.
This set has everything you need to customize your DIY Christmas Planner.

Assembling Your DIY Christmas Planner
Start by choosing your cover and dividers. You will find section dividers throughout the Christmas planner pages, or you can use the additional covers & dividers in your accessory set. Print the ones you would like to use on card stock, and laminate if desired. Be sure to print them to the proper size for your planner.
Print the tabs on card stock as well, and cut them out. Use glue or double sided tape to adhere them to your dividers. Use your Happy Planner punch to punch holes in each page.
Now you can choose the pages that you'd like to include in your DIY Christmas Planner. I have laid out everything that you need (over 140 pages!) in the Christmas planner, but the beauty of this system is that you can mix and match what works best for YOU.
Print the pages and sections that will help you to be most organized (remember to resize them if you're not printing at letter size - get directions here). Use your punch to make the holes in each page and add them to your Christmas planner.
Finally, use the planner stickers to decorate your planner, make lists, and mark important events too! You can use your Cricut machine to make this super easy: get directions for how to cut printable planner stickers with a Cricut here.
You don't need holiday magic to have the perfect Christmas. All you need is a Christmas Planner and you can be more organized, less stressed, and enjoy your holiday.
