VIDEO: Planner Organization + Stay Focused Blog Hop + Giveaways
Hi! Today’s post is a little different than most. Lately I have been getting a lot of questions about the planner I use. (I have shown it a few times on Instagram.) So I decided to share a video on it, along with some products I use with it. Also, this post is part of the Stay Focused Blog Hop… with lots of people sharing tips on planner organization.

Almost a year ago, my good friend Kristina Werner starting encouraging me to try the Erin Condren Life Planner. I was very resistant and skeptical… thinking it wouldn’t work for me. (I really wanted to be fully digital!) But in January I finally decided to give it a try. And I am so thankful I did. This planner has been life changer for me. I keep everything here – my work, my family appointments and my to-do list. And it has worked. Big time.
There are a few products that I use with my planner. Please keep in mind that I keep my planner simple, practical, clean, and not-needing-of-a-lot-of-time. There are some adorable planner nerds out there! Me? I just go with what is practical:
- Erasable Pens – These pens work very well. I use them all the time.
- Removable Circle Stickers – I color these guys with markers and love being able to move them around.
- Waffle Flower Stay Focused Stamp Set – This planner stamp set I has all the images I need for my planner.
- Calendar Case – This 10″ x 13″ durable (and practical) bag is perfect for holding the planner along with a few other goodies. (I use these for many other purposes, too. I think I have 10 of them – they are such a great price!)
There are a few other products I mention in the video. All are linked in the thumbnails below.
By the way, if you use THIS link to purchase an Erin Condren Life Planner, Kristina will get a $10 credit. She has been saving up these credits and giving away big gift certificates on her blog. Fun, huh? I decided to use her link since she is the one who introduced me to the system. Also, I apologize that the video isn’t the best. I had one of those days…
