Tips for Using A Christmas Planner
1. Set the Christmas Planner Up At The Start
After downloading the Christmas Planner printable pack, I recommend spending some time setting them up and putting them together in a way that works for you.
Organize the files in a dedicated folder on your computer and/or in a binder.
2. Stay on Top of the Christmas Planner
Don’t abandon the planner until a few weeks before Christmas. Stay on top of updating the files at least once a week.
Get a cup of tea and some cookies and set aside some time to do this every week.
3. Collaborate If Possible
You can invite your friends and family to collaborate on some of the files such as the menu planner via Google Drive. It’s easy to do this.
- Head over to Google Drive HERE.
- Create a new folder and give it a relevant name.
- Upload the files you will be collaborating on from your computer.
- Once you’ve finished uploading, right-click the folder and choose Share.
- Enter the email addresses of everyone you want to share with and Google will notify them.
You can edit settings to choose how much can be edited by each person.
