In my previous post, I shared the cover and a supply list for my album this year. In this post and in the following 2 posts, I’ll show a breakdown of the interior pages of my 6×8 album.
I started this album in October, since the new Hallmark movies were debuting that month. I chose not to include pages relating to the Christmas holiday in my October & November albums, instead choosing to group it by topic & days.
Reminder: All links to supplies will be in the first album post!

Day 1: Tea Advent Calendars
I got the idea for an opening tea advent calendar from my friend Jill Drangsholt. I like hers better! Go check out her Instagram. I’ve linked it to her name. I love this Santa mug! I found it at Goodwill before leaving South Dakota. This year I purchased *two* tea advent calendars! One from David’s Tea and the other from Yawn Brew. I had a blast opening up my teas every day.

Day 5: FrndlyTV
Today, I wanted to tell the story of how I watched the new Hallmark & Lifetime movies. I didn’t sign up for cable when we moved into our house in November. Instead, I signed up for the FrndlyTV app and was able to “record” and store everything up to watch when I could. Living on the east coast means the movies are on later than they were in the Midwest, and I have a hard time staying up that late! Haha! I’m not sure if I’ll keep the app past January but it was fun to be able to turn on the tv in the middle of the day while cleaning and watch whatever was being broadcast right then.

Day 8: Treat
This cereal packaging was too cute to not include in my album. I love Christmas versions of regular foods. This year I also picked up Snowflake shaped York Peppermint Patties, and a Sugar Cookie Hersheys bar. I wish I had tried the Gingerbread Mtn. Dew!
