I never realized that planning was actually a hobby until I started using an Erin Condren LifePlanner. It is super fun decorating my planner with stickers each week! It’s also amazingly relaxing and is a good stress reliever. I find that using a planner helps to jazz up the mundane tasks of life. I try to set aside at least one day a week to plan my upcoming week. I also like to work on the notes pages at the back of the planner as well. I have used the notes pages for favorite recipes, book lists, and tracking professional development hours, among other things.
I try to leave some blank spaces when planning out my weeks, since I tend to make checklists of tasks I need to accomplish each day. I always include a weekly to-do list on the side with the most important stuff I need to do for that week. Every year, I get the monthly sticker book. It is different each year. Click here to see what the sticker book looks like. I ordered mine on Amazon so that I would get free shipping.
For the month of July, I bought a sticker kit from Etsy. It was made by Fern Creek stickers. I got the full vertical kit which was $17.00. It is called the Fourth of July Weekly Planner Kit. I am so happy with the quality of this kit. It has a variety of stickers that are both fun and functional. It will last me the whole month of July, which is so terrific. I really love the red, white, and blue theme for the month of July. It matches nicely since I have the colorful planner and there is a light blue color theme for the month of July. If you like this kit, you can purchase it here.
If you are looking for a great pen to write with in your planner, I highly recommend the Pilot G2 pens. You can get them on Amazon. Click here if you are interested in ordering them. They are the nicest pens I have ever used! You can use them to write both in your planner and on your stickers.
Here’s what this week’s plan looks like! Enjoy and happy planning!
