Weekly Favourites [15/11/2015] Overdue

Sorry I am overdue with this blog post. I have been unwell and our car got hit while it was parked on Wednesday. So I keep going to try and write last weeks 'Weekly Favourites', but things keep getting in the way.


I brought a Silhouette cutting machine this week, haven't spend a lot of time playing with it yet, but can't wait to get making stickers, tabs, stencils and paper clips.

Weekly Favourites [08/11/2015]

This week I have been looking at the 'Happy planners - create 365'.  If you are not familiar with these, here is the link to the website. (Click here)

I actually ordered mine from Amazon as I live in the UK and I haven't seen them anywhere else. Here is the link to the one I ordered on Amazon.

I am not going to be using my Happy planner as a actual planner. I will do a blog post of how I'm going to use it as soon as it arrives.

Two other things I have ordered this week, is an Index card holder with index cards and a small desk weekly planner. I ordered the Index card holder from Paperchase and the small desk weekly planner from Amazon. 

I will do another blog post on how I will be using the Index cards. I am very excited!

The small desk weekly planner is going to be used to just quickly jot down what happens during the day. Sometimes I find it easier to jot things down quickly on something that's already open on my desk, rather than in a notebook that I have to get out my drawer.

Something I have been looking into this week is the GTD style (Getting things done). I do have the book (the old version), but I actually haven't read it all. 
Please check out my latest blog post - GTD - Planner weekly review


Lets jump into my weekly favourites this week! Please grab yourself a cuppa tea and sit, relax and read :)

Planners I was going to buy (instead of the Happy planner):

• Ban.do planner
• Heidi swap memory planner
• Heidi swap black and white planner (couldn't find it from UK, but think Anna Brim is selling the gold one, I believe)
• Inkwell Press planner - which I don't think is available in the UK.

So here is some youtube videos that made me want these planners:

• Heidi Swapp Memory Planner August Flip 2015 - Christina Weber
• NEW The Happy Planner ($24.99) Overview + Haul | Charmaine Dulak
• Create 365 - The Happy Planner | In Depth Review and Thoughts - HappilyAHousewife
• Ban.do Large 2016 Agenda Unboxing and Review! - Plan with TheRachMark
• Inkwell Press- Memory Keeping Episode 2 - Florence Antonette
• Completed 2014 Memory Planner and My Planning System for 2015 - Chelsey Vorosmarty
• Shop Bando Memory Planner Process Video - Tracey Clem

Blog posts I read up on about Index card system:

• 24 Things You Can Do With an Index Card
• Capture ideas quickly with index cards
• The Pile of Index Cards (PoIC) system

My Pinterest board - Index cards (not much on there at moment)

Inspiring pictures of pretty planners:

Weekly Favourites [01/11/2015]

I noticed on some people's blogs that I've come across, do a 'weekly inspiration' blog post each week. So I was very inspired by a few of them blogs and decided to do a weekly favourites blog post myself. So every week on Sunday, I'll post up my weekly enjoyments. Things that I have been inspired by and also what I've been loving in that week. So they might be blog posts, youtube videos, phone apps, etsy favourites, instagram people and so on. 

Every 2 weeks, it will be a themed blog post. (Example: Topic being bullet journals, daily planning, weekly reviews, monthly habits etc...) If it is a themed blog post, I'll put the title up the top saying what the topic is.
