Every year when I was growing up my mom handmade her own little Christmas list book. She decorated them in her own handwriting with whatever pens she had on hand. Nothing special but I have lots of memories of those little books. Especially the warnings… “NO PEEKING”, “Do NOT Open”, or “If you peek you WON’T get your gift”.

Christmas List Book #1
Today I’m sharing the quickest and easiest Christmas list book. This is the way my mom made them.
Here’s all you need:
- regular copy paper
- pens or markers
- stapler and staples
- bone folder (not necessary, but I like to use mine)
I first cut my copy paper in half then folded those in half and stapled in the fold. At the top of each page I wrote a family member or friend’s name. I divided my immediate family’s pages into “gift” and “stocking” so I can keep up with even the little things I buy them.
I’ll often put several friends’ names on one page or list coworkers on one page since I’m usually only getting them one small thing.
This is a super simple project but it will help you stay organized for Christmas!
