Christmas Ease | Planning the Holidays

December 2, 2013 by Francine Clouden

USM-190

The Holiday season is now in full swing, but before you jump in feet first, consider making yourself a Holiday notebook or binder. The December/January issue of Country Woman magazine introduces us to Rhonda Coulter, who helps hundreds of women enjoy a frazzle-free holiday every year. She runs a free course through Yahoo Groups to help you to set up a notebook to do all your holiday planning. In the article Rhonda explains how to go about making a similar notebook, including the most important sections to include such as a Master To Do List, Budget, Shopping List & Gift Ideas. A follow-up article shares two patterns for cross-stitched Christmas Trees (shown above) that would make great covers for your notebook. You can find Country Woman magazine on newsstands now, or subscribe to one of their digital editions. The current edition is chock full of all sorts of Holiday crafts and recipes!
