Notebook Challenge W/C 20 July

Now that we have the basic notebook and dividers in place we will set about filling out the sections we have decided on. As there are only 5 weeks until the HGP starts we will tackle a couple of sections per week. I have tried to group them so that there will be a big section ( for want of a better description) with ones where there is not so much work.

CALENDERS - Print yourself some calenders month by month to file in this section. I have September to December. Mark any events you have planned and use it like a diary. I also have printed out a copy of The Holiday Grand Plan calender or if you prefer the Holiday Houseworks Plan. Here are some links for calenders :-

HOLIDAY GRAND PLAN OR HOLIDAY HOUSEWORKS PLAN
Choose a plan which you think will suit you best. Below are some links to ones I have found. Last year I followed the HGP but after I printed it all out I found the HHP. So for this year I have written my own plan which is a combination of the two with a couple of my own things thrown in.

Print a copy of the plan you are going to follow and a copy of the relevant checklists.

Happy planning! Please free to ask any questions or to share anything that you feel would be useful.

Haven't had much of an opportunity to review all the sheets in the plans this week. I'm hoping tomorrow morning I'll be able to tackle it a little more.

Winterself,

The sections I have in my Notebook are:-
Calenders
Holiday Houseworks Plan/Holiday Grand Plan
Cleaning Check Lists
Rudolph Club
Notes
Cards & gifts
Celebrations
Decorations
Advent
Traditions
Food
Holiday Media
Crafts
I have a dedicated Notebook for Christmas Recipes, but you may want to include this as a section to start with, depending on how many recipes you have.

If you also read my posts

You are not far behind, all we have done so far is find a suitable binder and decide on some sections. Last week we developed the first 2 sections which are Calenders and a 'Plan'. If you read the above links they will throw a bit more light on things for you and they also include some links for forms, dividers etc.

I am just about to put up the challenge for this week.

Happy Notebooking!
