May Holidays

Hello scrappy friends!!! It’s Polly Monica here to welcome you to my favorite month of the year with a long list of holidays to celebrate!


My family doesn’t lack for special days to celebrate since we already have two birthdays and an anniversary this month, but I am a huge fan of celebrating the big and small moments of life. I love finding obscure National days and holidays to celebrate with my family. They can turn a mundane day into something fun and special.

In fact, there’s an awesome trio of holidays this weekend that I’m planning to celebrate. There’s Star Wars Day tomorrow, Cinco de Mayo on Saturday and I’m looking forward to celebrating National Scrapbook Day here at the Pad all weekend!!

I thought it would be fun to list all of the holidays I found to celebrate in May. I challenge you to see how many of these you can celebrate this month!!
