Instructions
Every December, I seem to think of the perfect present while I’m doing something completely unrelated to Christmas shopping. By the time I reach the shops, that brilliant idea has usually disappeared.
This little DIY Christmas shopping list gives those thoughts somewhere to land. It folds neatly into your handbag, ready for gift ideas, reminders and the occasional note about where you spotted something special.
I love this as an excuse to enjoy the Christmas scrapbook supplies, too. Bring out the cheerful stripes, tiny reindeer and letter stickers you’ve been saving. Keep the decorations fairly flat so your planner slips easily into a bag without catching.
For a coordinated handmade Christmas, use leftover paper on gift tags or pair your planner with our vintage Santa gift box.
Fold your cardstock in half and then fold each side in half again to form 4 folds as shown in the picture or measure and fold it equally in 4 folds as shown.
Trim one end to form the opening flap by cutting off the corners as shown. Next take your embellishments and decorate the front off your flap and the inside of your shopping list.
To create a clasp use a small piece of velcro on the flap. Alternatively you can use a ribbon or even a decorative elastic hair band to close it up.
Keep the list in your purse for all those secret shopping ideas.
