Ten years ago I started a blog post here on Shabby Art Boutique that read…..
Once upon a time, out in the blogosphere, there was a vintage girl living in a modern day world. She dreamed of an old-fashioned Christmas, simply filled with homemade and home-baked. She knew that a stress free and enjoyable Christmas would require planning and preparation, so she devised a 12 week plan. She called it… ‘Simply Christmas’.
Who knew then that ten years later I’d still be presenting an annual event that evoked the simple joys of an old-fashioned Christmas.
Thank you for joining me in 2019 for the…
10th Annual Simply Christmas!
While the event may have changed a little over the last decade, it still encapsulates my original vision of ‘putting the homemade and home baked back into Christmas’.
For the next 8 weeks until Christmas Eve, I will be sharing lots of free crafting projects, printables, recipes, Christmas decorating and gift ideas.
Christmas Planner
Traditionally, I kick off this event every year with a free printable Christmas Planner.
And this year I’ve created this A5 (5” x 7”) sized Christmas planner using a gorgeous set of vintage Christmas postcards from 1914.
Home to lists and recipes, calendars and gift ideas, this simple tool is your reference for all things Christmas and will keep you on track for a stress free ‘silly season’.
These sweet war time postcards depicting children enjoying the season were the perfect addition for my planner pages.
Included in the 2019 Christmas Planner are: calendar pages; diary pages; lists for cards, emails, gifts, shopping, menu plans, groceries and notes.
How you use your printable Christmas planner is up to you.
Options include:
-
Make a simple planner for use on a clipboard
-
Make a paper planner booklet for your handbag
-
Get creative and make a hard cover Christmas planner journal.

Are you going to decorate your craft room? I loved the one I saw either last year or the year before. Judy.
Thank you Judy. Yes, my craft room has been decorated. This is my first Christmas in this new house, so that’s always fun to see how I can fit all my Christmas goodness into all the new spaces. I have a totally new theme and decor for this year’s Christmas craft room, which I look forward to sharing with you very soon.
Hugs,
Kerryanne
Thank you for the beautiful creations you so willingly share with the World. I cannot wait to see what else you have to bless us with.
That’s so nice of you Gerolene. I always enjoy sharing, but there is no sweeter time to share than at Christmas. Everyone is in such a giving and happy mood…. I guess that’s the magic of Christmas!
Hugs,
Kerryanne
Thanks, Kerryanne. I love your Christmas planners. I have used them for years and have them in a book. That way I can see who got what each year and what I did in the weeks before Christmas. 🙂
Oh, I do love that idea of keeping them all together in one folder Anne Lise. That would be lovely to look back on and very handy!!
So happy that you have enjoyed my many Christmas Planners.
Hugs,
Kerryanne
Thanks Kerryanne…your generosity is appreciated and looking forward to the weeks to come..
Thank you Beaj. It’s always such a fun time of year, which I thoroughly enjoy sharing with my crafting friends.
Hugs,
Kerryanne
Gorgeous!
Thank you Eileen 🙂
Wow, 10 years! That’s crazy! I look forward to your planner every year, so thank you so much for being such a sweet part of my Christmas! I am wondering whether I am missing the letter size template? I downloaded it but it appears to be the same as the A4 size. Is there something that I need to do to print it in full size?
Thanks, again! I hope that you have a wonderful Holiday season.
So glad you enjoy my Christmas planners each year Teresa. Thank you for following along with Simply Christmas.
I double checked and both the letter and A4 sized planners are loaded to my website correctly, so if you’ve downloaded the letter sized PDF it should be right to print off. There’s not a great deal of difference in the sizes, but the A4 is slightly longer. If you are still having an issue with the format, it could be your actual printer settings.
Hope you continue to enjoy what’s on offer for Simply Christmas in 2019 🙂
Thank you so much for these cute printables. Organization for me is the only way to enjoy Christmas.
You are welcome Robin. I hope you have a fabulous (and organised) festive season!!
Thank you very much .
Vielen lieben Dank liebe Kerryanne. Ihre Entwürfe sind immer so wundervoll :o)
