Freebie Ideas!!





Planning gets expensive, especially if you fall into the sticker trap and feel the need for more.  It gets hard looking at all the pretty pages on Instagram when you don’t write pretty and feel like you are a little less than some other planners.  We need to remember

1.       We all know how hard it is to get that “perfect pic”.  Rarely do you ever get the picture right on the first try and you need to move a few things, tweak the lighting or even start over.

2.       Everyone has a different budget, gets “gifted” items or are spending above their means… I don’t want to throw anyone under the bus, it’s important to remember that nothing is worth going into debt to create a pretty page.

Some talented artists are giving us things free! These are some of my favorites:

Victoria Thatcher – I cannot say enough about Victoria Thatcher! She is SO awesome and has some beautiful work that she is giving to us FREE! 

Clementine Creative love the tabs for my planner, printed on both sides you get a really cool result

Mom Envy – lots of things on Fauxnonichi and other free planner printables

Planner Addiction – lots of layouts for the week, color themes


We Come in Planner Peace – a Facebook group that you need to join, but they have some fun things in their files that have been created by the group. 

Even do a search on Pinterest for Happy Planner Printable Free there are so many things there that you can find. You need to weed through, there is lots to see!

Ultimately, you can even build your own planner this way and not pay a dime, you would need a hole punch and some other tools, but this gives you a cost efficient way of creating your planner.

Addendum to Meal Planning

So, I was planning last night and as I work on my planner I also watch You Tube videos to get inspiration.   As I am flipping through the people, I see that Kell of Plan has a Meal Planning Video, it has changed my way of thinking about meal planning! She gave me inspiration and I am excited for planning my meals for this next MONTH! Check out her video here … So instead of using a mini page and drawing out my month, I created this printable for 2 months’ worth of planning. Just print 2 sided, flipping on the short side if you can, otherwise having 2 sheets will work too.   Just trim them down to size and viola; you are good to go! I liked her idea of trimming the post-it’s to fit in the squares and then you can move them to your planner if you wanted, or you can write it directly on the calendar itself. Can’t wait to see if this changes my life! J

Do What Brings You Joy!

As I flipped through Instagram there were many times when I doubted my talents, and myself and I questioned whether I should continue to do these things. The good news is that since I started my planner Instagram I have felt more empowered and have gotten such positive feedback on the things I do.   I remember telling my husband I was going to start my page and he said don’t take anything personally.   I promised that I wouldn’t, and I believe that he has prepared himself for the worst.   Luckily, this group of people are a wonderful group and for the most part, live by the golden rule.     Starting planning has really made me start thinking about things differently and I am starting to try things that I haven’t done for YEARS. I am drawing again, I practice hand lettering and feel like I can actually do it, and it is all making me a better person and want to be a better mom.   My son has started to want to play and make things with paper and I ha...
