German Christmas Markets Mini Book by Caylee Grey for Paislee Press

As soon as it became definite that we were moving back to Germany, I allowed myself to start dreaming of the place again. I went through my photos from last year and looked at old minis and photobooks. I took out the Christmas market mugs and drank the German tea that I had been hoarding. I started speaking German to Griffin. I became aware of the fact that I had not made a Christmas markets mini book. Oh, the travesty. I got to remedying it immediately. The book ended up being quite different to my usual style with a scripty typeface and my preference for darker digital paper and photos, but when my husband said that this was his favourite mini, I was okay with how it turned out. I put some mistletoe over the photo of Spätzle so that I would know that I made it.

I love minis for how they capture something in particular and take you right back to how you felt at the time. When I go through this book, I can almost taste the Glühwein. After uploading these photos, it came to my attention that there were exactly twenty five spreads excluding the covers. I quite like that.

Oh Caylee, this is absolutely beautiful!! I can see why it is your husband’s favourite mini album! Although I can’t really decide, I just love them all and they are always so inspiring. I always envy you for the stunning simplicity in your albums – I wish I could pull that off!

Hope you can add many more Weihnachtsmarkt pictures to the album in the future! 🙂 <3

Aw you are such a sweetheart. I am beyond excited for the 2015 Christmas markets. I need to make a big list to check off.

Caylee this mini album is so amazing!!! I absolutely love it!

Thank you ♥

your badger hat! The cutest!

Oh I know. I love H&M.

Caylee, the album looks absolutely amazing!!
I’m from Czech Republic but living in Canada and I so miss the European Christmas markets.

Thanks. Wow, that’s such a change! I hope that you are enjoying it. It surely will get freezing there over Christmas.

Love your cool mini. German christmas markets are the best.

They are truly magical.

OMG CAYLEEEEEEE. You’re the best.

This is EXACTLY what I needed to see this morning because…well..texting you now 🙂

Hallo,

i said it before on IG, i love that mini. especially the fonts and design is spot on! Congrats!!

Marit

Thank you Marit. The fonts are Isabella, and Archer ♥

I love this. Has such a wonderful mood. Love the 2-page image spreads and the different intro pages for the various markets.

A photo over two pages is my favourite (and laziest) thing to do in minis. I’m not really good at journaling, so a mini intro to each market was the best that I could do.

I just loved your mini book its soo simple and lovely photos. I would like to know how can I make a mini photo book like how you have made from where can i order. Can you tell from where to get it?

Hey Fatima. I made this book myself 🙂

What an amazing photography you have…
It would be great if I live near you and we went on an excursion with cameras so you can show me some tricks! haha trick + picnic!
Lovely mini book!

YES we have to do that when I visit Barcelona again! Or you can come visit me… we are nice and close now.

Beautiful little book, Caylee. Fell in love with it in an instant. It reminds me to take more photos on our wonderful Christmas markets, especially the little details you photographed so perfectly like the light reindeer. Magical.
