Wrendale Designs Christmas Planner

Be organised and prepared throughout the festive season with this hardback, ring bound Christmas Planner from Wrendale Designs.

It has a beautifully festive illustration of two rabbits on the front cover set against a cream background with a berry red border and sporadically placed paint specks. Above them in gold-foiled text are the words ‘Christmas PLANNER’. Inside you are greeted with a wreath of holly berries and its prickly leaves, with a robin perched on one side and there is space to write who the planner belongs to inside the wreath. Opposite this are two pages of stickers that you can use throughout the planner or to add some of Wrendale's designs to your Christmas cards.

This planner has five uniquely illustrated dividers, to make sure your Christmas goes smoothly year after year.

The first section is for Christmas cards which starts with a ‘Countdown to Christmas’ list giving you ideas for activities that will help get you and your family in the festive spirit. Then there is ample space for you to write the names, addresses and postcode of family and friends along with checkboxes to mark when you have sent and received cards from them.

After this is the ‘Present Planning’ divide. Here you can list gift ideas under each person’s name and then check when you’ve bought and wrapped them. There is also a space for wish lists that you can get friends or family to fill out , when you're stuck for ideas, with subtitles such as; ‘my number one gift would be’, ‘my favourites’, ‘hobbies and interests’, ‘to wear’, ‘to read’ and ‘about me’. There is also space for you to write your own wish list and what you received, so you remember to send out accurate thankyou cards.

Next is the ‘Food and Entertainment’ area, which starts with a conversion table, a suggested shopping list and suggested cooking times for different sized turkeys and tips for cooking it. Following this are pages to note down your Christmas feasts which include a shopping list, what you’re serving, when and other important details. There is also space at the back for you to write down your favourite festive recipes so you have to memorize several different recipes.

The fourth section is the calendar which has four years’ worth of November and December monthly overviews, so this planner will still be useful for years to come. There is also an important dates page at the beginning ensuring you don’t miss any events!

Last but not least is the final section, ‘Lists & Notes’ which comprises of blank pages for you to write down any Christmas related ideas and ‘to do’s’ and a pocket on the back cover for any important pieces of paper or receipts. The back cover itself has a beautiful illustration of a Little Owl wearing a red and white Santa hat perched on a branch surrounded by holly.

This Christmas planner contains a plethora of original Wrendale artwork and is perfect for any Mum, Grandma, Aunt or friend that want to be organised over Christmas or just a gift of organisation to yourself.

This delightful range of stationery and accessories is inspired by the animal characters seen in the British countryside, farmyard and home, as well as more exotic creatures. Featuring original artwork produced by Hannah Dale, each image is delicately painted with soft brushwork, subtle colours and paint spatters. Hannah is an ex-stockbroker turned farmer’s wife who, inspired by her rural married life, embraced her artistic roots and began painting the animals in the landscape around her. Since then Wrendale Designs has expanded into a family business, producing a wide range of greetings cards, ceramic, melamine and textile items, all featuring artwork touched with the magic of Hannah’s watercolour brush.
