Tips & Tricks: Christmas in July
Do you celebrate Christmas in July? Maybe you should!!
With Christmas in July just around the corner, we thought we'd share a few prompts for creating a fun spread in your Planner or Journal! (Image featured below via @signed.michelle on Instagram) There's something about a winter Christmas that is SO MUCH more fun than a summer Christmas. We're all used to seeing Christmas movies, with snow, fire places roaring, cozy winter activities, baked goods and warm drinks... why not bring a little festive cheer to the Australian winter season, we say!! (Featured image below via @plan.a.gram on Instagram) It's also quite Hygge, to enjoy cozy festivities such as sharing a roast meal with friends, enjoying a mulled wine by the fire, having a Christmas movie marathon and snuggling up on the couch and wearing a cozy woollen jumper and socks! (You might want to add some Christmas in July festivities to your Hygge challenge and Cozy at Home #MyWashiGangJulySpread plans!)
Prompts for your Christmas in July planner or journal spread.
1. Create a Christmas in July spread. Pick a theme, such as, a colour palette, season, or style, or base your theme around an item/animal (such as pine trees, red florals, or winter animals). Pair your stickers and washi tapes to fit the theme! (Featured spread below, via @planwithmichele on Instagram) 2. Motivate yourself with fun, festive quotes. Practice your hand lettering or use all of the stickers! (Image below via @beas.bujo on Instagram, using the Tombow Dual Brush Pens) 3. Make a Christmas in July bucket list, listing all of the festive and cozy activities that you'd like to do. (Don't forget to schedule them in!)
7. Make a watch list of your favourite festive movies! (Image below via @dingbatsnotebooks on Instagram.

Have you heard of junk journaling? Starting a junk journal is a fun and creative way to repurpose materials while creating a unique and personalised journal. The junk journaling style is perfect for memory keeping and getting crafty and creative with collage. It also allows you the space to write as much or as little as you like and can be used more as a visual journal if you don't enjoy writing much. Junk journaling is a great way to practice mindfulness and find your creative flare.

I purchased a reading journal, it’s so pretty and have already started writing in it. It’s fantastic. The zebra mildiner highlighters are great. Goes well with the journal doesn’t seep through.
Bought this sweet journal for myself. Started using it straight away. What a gorgeous little notebook! Illustrated throughout on high quality paper that writes on like a dream with a fountain pen. Perfect for the Crazy Cat Lady in your life - me! - or your best buddy who just loves kawaii, kitties, and quality. Added a second one to my next order for my friend who fits the brief.
