I like the idea of being organized tho many thing in my home are not. The one thing I like to use to stay organised is my planner or as i like to call it "My Bible"
My Bible is a large Kikki -K Mint planner (A5 size planner), It has 7 dividers split as below
(Not sure why but it looks Blue in this pick)
Front of the Planner - I know this isn't really a divider but this is where I house Business card holders, plastic pockets, Emergency Information Page, Physician Contacts, Year Overview, Special Dates, Annual Appointments, Annual Renewals
Calendar - This section is self exploratory - I have my weekly planner in this section which is a 1 week over two pages. This is a vertical layout starting on a Monday. I found these on a website called Calvin was Right and the planner is called The Pretty Pretty Planner the box's in the vertical layout are 4cm x 4.9cm so the perfect size for all those Erin Condren sized stickers out there and best of all its a free download.
To Do's - This section holds my Bucket List, To Do's, Things to make, Recipes to try, Notes, Books to Read & Buy, Movies to See & Buy and lastly my Password Tracker
Well-being - In here it's all about Health and Fitness, the pages in here are my Step Into Life timetable, Goal Tracking, Weight Loss Tracker, Measurement Tracker, Run/Walk Tracker and a Fitness Tracker
Finance - Show me the MONEY!, We have a Bank Information page, Budget, Bill Payment Checklist, Account Register for each of my accounts
Cakes By Paula - This is my fantasy business, This holds Pages like a price list from my local cake
decorator supply shop. Gift/Giveaway / Discount Tracker, Order/Profit Tracker, Monthly Expense Tracker, Yearly Expense Tracker and a Mileage Tracker
Seasonal - I think I need a better name for this section. This section is where i am keeping pages that i may not need all year round. At the moment i have Job Application Tracker in it but i may also use it for things like Christmas Trackers or Notes for an upcoming event.
School - As I went back to school last year I am using this section to keep my timetable and a map of the school. I am sure there is a lot more i could do with it just not sure what. (feel free to offer some suggestions)
Most of my inserts are from ThePolkaDotPosie on Etsy (unless otherwise stated), I have a mix of a couple of planners from this store in my Bible including Direct Sale's Planner, Budget Planner and Health & Fitness Planner. Jennifer also made me a custom cover, She also has a website and if you head over there you will find some awesome ideas and some free printable's like a 4th of July Treat Tags, Outdoor Scavenger Hunt, Christmas Printable's (I have these, just not in my planner at the moment), Thanksgiving Printable's, Halloween Treat Tags and lots more. I also have more of her planners on my Etsy Wish list.
I have not gotten into the full decorating of my planner however I do like using stickers in my planner. I have two main Etsy stores I like to order from, The first one is HipDigiChick this was the first shop I ever purchased from and I fell in love with the range straight away. My must have's from this store were the Washing Machine, Weight Scales, Cleaning Bucket, Go Walk Running Shoe, Yoga Frog Vacuum Cleaner and Workout Bottle. When my order arrived they kindly added in some extra stickers which of course have now ended up on my Etsy Wish list.
My Second Sticker Store is Lime & Mortar, This is an Australian store so postage is much cheaper for me, and the customer server is the best I have ever had (online or in store) I have ordered lots of stickers from Leanne and she has even made custom stickers from me too including forklifts, Tupperware blows, Weeks of the year and Girl Guide logos. I have also purchased some of her sets which if i order the "Short" size fit nicely in my planner and as you may guess yes i have a lot of Lime & Mortars range in my wishlist too.
