Get Inspired for December Daily Season with these 50 Photo or Storytelling Prompts!

If you’re anything like me, December rolls around and suddenly every crafty plan I made in November starts to feel a little unrealistic. I always start December Daily with the best intentions, but between shopping, wrapping, baking, and trying to remember what day it is, my momentum tends to disappear by about December 8th. I have more half-finished December albums than I’d ever admit out loud.

So this year, instead of hoping inspiration magically strikes every single day, I put together a big list of December Daily prompts to make the whole project feel more doable. Think of it as a little safety net for those days when your brain is fried or you didn’t take a single photo but still want to keep the story going.

This list covers all kinds of holiday moments: festive traditions, small everyday memories, seasonal details, and the beautifully imperfect chaos that always comes with December. Some prompts are simple, some are nostalgic, and all of them are flexible enough to fit whatever kind of December story you want to tell.

You can follow them in order, pick one at random, or jump between them depending on what you documented that day. The point isn’t perfection. It’s giving yourself enough options that you never feel stuck, pressured, or behind. December is busy enough without adding creative guilt to the mix.

So grab your album, your favorite holiday collection, and your warm beverage of choice, and let this prompt list guide you through the month. Even if you only document a handful of days, you’ll still end up with a meaningful snapshot of your December.
