I have been obsessed lately with my Erin Condren Life Planner! I purchased mine last year around February and didn’t use it much until I saw a few blog posts and youtube videos on how others use theirs. Well, now I have been using it to write down ideas for blog posts, for keeping all my Wildtree parties organized, planning out meals and well just having lots of fun with stickers and colored pens. In the past, I was an avid believer that everything had to be electronic and synced, but lately, it just feels better to physically write down ideas. Now don’t get me wrong all my appointments still get put in my ical but now all my blog post organizing, random ideas, and doodles go in my planner.
I’m determined to get better organized for 2016 and I believe this new way of planning will help along with that. New this year to the line up is a planner with hourly spaces, I’m very excited about this. I think it’s really going to help me divide my time up to be able to get projects I have been wanting to do. There are so many things I have been wanting to do ‘when I had the time’, so now I am going to start planning the time to do those! These planners are also fun since they are customizable. I ordered mine with my name and blog name on it (see photo above). The cover is changeable so I can order a new one for the holidays and even use the one from this year on next years.
I have also found there are many places (besides the Erin Condren site) to get stickers and accessories that are made to fit this planner. Here are a few that I have/will be ordered from:
- One Orange Snowflake
- Addie & Allie
- Sweet Ava’s Paper
- Krissyanne Designs
Some great bloggers I came across with different ways to use your planner
- Jen Plans (great name!)
- Organized Jen (another blog with a great name)
- Paper and Glam
- Pretty Neat Living – great post on how she uses the planner – and it’s another Jen!
The other really cool thing is that this company was started by a mom. So happy to see it grow so much from when they first started.
