Days of December - Daily Journal
Ah December. The whisper of soft snow flakes. The magic of twinkling lights. The promise of Christmas Day. But how to capture all of it?
Well, if you haven't heard of a December Daily by Ali Edwards, you can read about them here.
This is my own version based on a design I created. You can buy the journal kit for this Days of December Journal here.

Getting Ready
To begin, I printed & cut out all my journal pages and decorative elements. Next, I punched the holes for my binder rings. The kit comes with a handy hole punch guide so they'd all be lined up nicely.
A 1-inch circle punch comes in handy for punching out numbers and snowflakes.
Another handy thing to keep nearby is mounting tape. I use it to give dimension to my decorative elements to raise them up off the background page.
I spread all my elements and papers around my dining table so I could see what I had to work with. Then, I laid out each page to see where things would fit before gluing them.
When all my pages were finished, I bound them using binder rings.
I used the number tags like daily calendar numbers, adding "December" to each one and tying them to my journal pages with string or bakers twine.
The kit includes these really cute recipe pages to record all the Christmas recipes our family will bake together!
The kit comes with special divider pages in the shapes of a star, an ornament and a tree.
I can't wait to start counting down the memories and adding my own photos, recipes & journal entries! Get this printable kit and make your own Days of December journal.
Tip:
Print your papers on the back of your journal pages for a finished look, so the backs of your pages are as pretty as the fronts.
