Welcome friends….
Every year on the 1st November we come together for Simply Christmas.
This is the 8th Annual Simply Christmas event and I’m just as excited to present this series, as I have been in the previous years.
Like most people, this is my absolute favourite time of year… and I look forward to sharing it with you over the next 8 weeks.
If this is your first time here, Simply Christmas is all about simplifying the busy season with a little planning and putting a homemade touch on everything we do!
It starts today, November 1st and runs all the way through to Christmas Eve… with lots of free handmade projects, printables and recipes to help put the homemade and home baked back into the holidays.
Traditionally, I kick off this event with my annual free printable Christmas Planner and this year I have 2 options; my all new A4 sized 2017 Vintage Christmas Planner and my previous A5 sized Vintage Planner that has been updated with current 2017 monthly calendars for November and December.
So today I have for you my all new 2017 Vintage Christmas Planner.
All the pages and graphics are new designs and part one of the Christmas planner is available to download today.
It forms the main part of the planner and throughout the Simply Christmas event I will be offering additional pages that you may like to add to your planner as well eg. meal planner pages, organizing a cookie exchange etc.
I think as Christmas Planners go, there is a plethora of free printable planners available on Pinterest. Everything from basic forms to elaborate printables.
My 2017 Vintage Christmas Planner definitely falls towards the more elaborate end, as it takes far more ink to print. However, I know it is popular because I start getting emails requesting it from about midyear, every year.
Personally, I am inspired by being surrounded by beautiful and creative things and this is the type of planner I enjoy using at Christmas … and I know some of you will enjoy it too.
Downloading your 2017 Christmas Planner
I’ve created part 1 of the 2017 Vintage Christmas Planner as a PDF file that you can click on and save to your own computer.
The 2017 Christmas Planner is no longer available.
Printing your 2017 Christmas Planner
I print mine on A4 matt photo paper because I like the finish it gives the artwork. This aff link will show you the type of paper I use.
Tip: Use the photo settings and choose the best quality print option on your printer for profession printing results.
Another option is to take the file on a USB stick to your local print shop and have them print it for you.
Ideally, this planner can be filed in a binder or a decorated clipboard. This year I’m going with the decorated clipboard for something different.
Tip: I laminate my Daily Planner page so I can write on it with a fine white board marker and clean off and re-use the same page each day.

You can download option 2, a smaller sized 2017 Christmas Planner HERE.
Festive ‘homemade’ wishes

Thank you so much, i’m going to bind mne, i wish i had some pretty gold coils but i only have black or white here at work.
Oh yes, gold would have been perfect Cass, but black or white will work well too. I hope you enjoy using the planner this year 🙂

You are most welcome Gilda. Enjoy!!
Thank you so much! I look forward to this all year!
I don’t know about you Gayle, but I feel like Christmas came around much quicker this year. I hope you enjoy your planner and Simply Christmas in the lead up to the holidays.
Perfectly beautiful. Makes the “mind boggling part of the Holidays a much more pleasant task. Thank you for the planner and the work you put into it.
Glad you like it Barb. Hope it helps with your Christmas prep!

I JoeyAnn say: I will definitely enjoy this more than you will ever know. My opinion is that I love beautiful things too and I just love YOUR PLANNER better than anything on the internet or in the store. I love it that much that I wait to get that email that tells me it has arrived from you!!! :)))))))))))))))))))) God bless you and Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!! JoeyAnn
Oh, you are so sweet JoeyAnn!! That’s high praise for sure and I’m thrilled that it has brought you such joy.
Best Christmas wishes xx
I would need to ditto what commentor ahead of me has said. .You are so generous Kerryanne to share this incredible planner with us. .I used mine last 2 years and it was so invaluable. .Especially in 2015 as I had my right shoulder replaced on Dec.7th. 2015 and any aids were so helpful. .I wasn’t in real great shape with all going on. .Luckily didn’t have much pain as I had a nerve block done and only took one pain pill the whole time., Only problem was not being sent for physical therapy soon enuf, ,have limited range of motion still.
This planner is so beautiful with the gorgeous images throughout, such a pleasure to use,,felt very privileged, like a fancy lady.
So with this I have to repeat myself, thank you dear lady from bottom of my heart. Have wonderful rest of week.
Oh you made me laugh JaneEllen…. I’m glad I made you feel like a ‘fancy lady’.
I’m even happier that you enjoy using the planner and that it has proved invaluable for your Christmas preparation.
Hugs ~ Kerryanne
Thank you so much dear, it`s beautiful as always! xoxo
Thank you yet again Kerryanne for such a beautiful planner (binding with gold coils sounds a perfect idea – I have some antique gold ones…just need to remember where I put them LOL.
I hope I manage to keep this year’s one as the last couple of years they have been nabbed by friends (still, they made beautiful gifts). Must find somewhere else to keep mine so that I don’t lose it to someone else.

Thank you so much for the beautiful things you create and share with us!!! I can’t wait to print this gorgeous planner out and start using it…. I know a couple friends who will be a little green with envy, so I will probably do a couple and surprise them with their very own!!! Merry Christmas!!!!!! Teri
Thank you so much Kerryanne. They are always beautiful and will definitely use this beautiful planner. I need to go and get some better paper for it first and find out where I can get it spirally bound as previous comments. I always love your planners, calenders(these last for a year:) ) Thank you for sharing.And yes, where oh where has this year gone.

You are so kind to make these planners, and sharing them with us! Just beautiful!! Thank you so much!
Deze zijn heel mooi en bedankt hier voor
wilde best wel een voor het hele jaar in deze mooie sfeer
heel veel liefs Barbara uit Nederland wens jou en je gezin hele fijne kerstdagen
Thanks! Anything that helps me have a plan is a bonus. Have you considered making a lifetime plan book? LOL I always like how pretty the planner is, too. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for the free downloads! My favorite were the religious Christmas postcards! I have looked almost everywhere, and found very little for Christian families to post at this holiday season. I found it almost impossible to find nice stickers that were Faith based in nature on any major market. Thank you for having something lovely on yours! Bless you.
