    Planner Supplies for 2025

    I see my planner as an extension of myself. That might sound a little dramatic, but I’m serious! It’s where I keep track of all of the tasks I need to complete, but it also serves as a record of special events, notes about things like snow days, birthday plans, vacation packing lists, and all of the things that are important to me and to my family. Since I use my planner as both a calendar and a scrapbook I’ve gathered quite a few materials to help really make it mine. Here are my favorite planning products for 2025 (all links are affiliates. First things first, I have to keep…

  • How I’m Using My Happy Planner

    I’m a paper planner girl. I’ve tried digital options (you can even find some of my posts about them if you search), but there’s something about being able to look at the full spread, write tasks in by hand, and really turn the pages that just works for me. I’ve always had what I consider a photographic memory, and for some reason that just works better when I can visualize words written on a page – not a tablet or screen. This year I went with a big Happy Planner (affiliate link) and I couldn’t be happier – no pun intended. The price is truly unmatched. All of the other…

  • Easy Digital Planner

    Easy Digital Planner

    I’ve always been a hard-core paper planner girl, but if I’m being completely honest they’ve just gotten so expensive! I decided that it was time to find a digital planner that actually works for me so I’m currently testing one out and so far it’s been really great. Right now I’m using Structured, and there are a few reasons why I picked this one to start the transition. First, I wanted something inexpensive. Structured can be used completely free, or you can pay an annual fee for additional features. At the moment the free version seems to be enough for my needs, and it doesn’t get much better than free!…

    DIY Planner Stickers

    I’m back with another video today! I started making my own clipart a couple of years ago specifically because I was struggling to find the kinds of stickers that I wanted for my planner – and that’s how I work, if I can’t find it then I make it myself! It took some trial and error to figure out, so I wanted to share how I do it so that you don’t have to work through the same challenges. The video that I’m sharing today walks through how I add images to Cricut design space and format these, cut them, and use them in my planner. It showcases my latest…

  • Cute Clipart

    Clip Art Collections

    I’ve shared that all 12 months of my preschool plans are now available (check those out here) – but I haven’t taken time to highlight all of my clipart sets! I’ve truly loved creating these and it’s so fun to look back at each set and notice all of the great seasonal details included. Here are all of the clipart sets that I have in both my TPT and Etsy shops. In pulling together all of these images I realized that I haven’t showed you my latest set – this is the Peppermint Wonderland bundle! I love the classic red and green for Christmas, but red and pink is definitely…

  • planning a summer week

    Plan with me!

    I usually like to sit down on Friday afternoon or sometime on Sunday and look over my calendar for the upcoming week – this week it didn’t happen until Monday morning, but it’s summer right?! Summer weeks look a lot different in my planner than a typical week during the school year. There are a lot more moving pieces and ever-changing plans in the summer, so having it all written down is so important. Take a look at what goes into planning a summer week: Some of these plans were put in my calendar before my girl broke her arm, so we’ve had to do a bit of shuffling in…

  • March Clipart and Planner Stickers

    We all need a hobby right?! I used to be a scrapbooker back in the day, but that got hard to keep up with – and who prints photos anymore? Now I use my planner as a pseudo-scrapbook, and I’m obsessed with planner stickers. Making this clipart each month is an extension of that for me and I love that I can share it with all of you. The set of March planner stickers that I’ve put together just might be my favorite yet! I use this with my Cricut to print and cut out the stickers that I want. This makes it really easy to get the sizes I…
