My Disc Planner:
My disc planner is a "happy planner" product. They are available at their website thehappyplanner.com, and they are also at my local Joanns and probably other craft stores as well. My planner is a combination of a dated 2020 planner (classic size, vertical layout) and two happy planner blank notebooks. I took some of the blank pages and the dividers out of the blank notebooks for the sections in the back of my dated planner. I also purchased a happy planner hole punch on Amazon. I purchased my planners and notebooks at Joanns, but here is a link to the same products on the Happy Planner website:

I have really been enjoying starting from the beginning and watching all your progress! 😅 You are veryyyyyyy good at enabling. 👈👆👈👆
Wow on planners...bullet journal, personal planner and cross stitch journal...everything important on paper...amazing finishes for such big projects...on to your other parade❣️
LOL, planners everywhere :)
I love all the planner ideas! I am a planner person, too but I haven't gotten that much into my stitching journaling. 😁 Thank you again for entertaining me with your videos, Brenda! ❤️
You are welcome! I love planners, the planning is as fun as the actual doing!
This is one of my favorite floss tubes! You are such a inspiration to me! Can’t wait to see you again.
Thank You Sharon! I am missing you, and I think of you often :) How are things going at your house? Getting any stitching time? I love seeing how your table is decorated each month :)
Brenda... thank you so much for sharing your FOs and FFO'S. Now I understand how to work a BULLET JOURNAL. Your explanation made it Crystal clear 🧐. I love watching your videos ❤️♥️! HAPPY STITCHING TODAY AND EVERY DAY IN 2020!
Thank You Karen!!
Hi Brenda, I have been enjoying your FlossTube for a year now and have enjoyed following you. So much information and inspiration this past year. I really enjoyed the explanation of your planning and journals. So much information and, again, inspiration. I started Planning last year due to keeping track of life and that age thing (and I'm only in my 50's!). My stitch journal suffered but I what I did track was helpful. So thank you for the time you take to do these videos. Here's to a happy, healthy, productive and peaceful 2020.
Thank You!! I am glad it was helpful. My planning gets a little better every year, good luck with yours!
Lots of pretty stitching - very inspiring. You got my decorating ideas spinning. Almost all of your pieces would look so cute framed in white in a fun grandkid room. Teal walls with white trim, apple green large check curtains, vintage quilts and fun happy colors. You may already have a room like that - you definitely are drawn to happy colors. Thanks for sharing as always. Hope you have a wonderful year ahead - less headaches and more stitching and family fun. Happy stitching!
Thank You Cynthia!!! You have me pegged, lol, that room you envision sounds lovely. I will have to work on watching for frames this year, and get some of those beauties up on the wall :)
I loved the planner section, I keep a bullet journal too, but don't have so many stitchy pages. I just keep track of my wips and I write down what I worked on everyday.
Thank You, I love watching planner videos. Some days the planning is as much fun as the actual doing of the thing :)
Wow! Your finished pieces are just stunning! Houses and birdhouses (not attempting the French words) is absolutely breathtaking. I wrote it down as a must have. Bird houses are my favorite thing and this one is just lovely! Happy stitching!
Thank You :) I agree, it is one of my favorite finishes from this year.
I love the sweater. Very nicely done. You are very talented. Ty for sharing.
Thank You!
Thank you for sharing your planner ideas. I have been using the Bullet Journal method for 8 years. It worked great for me in the Corporate world and still is very effective outside of that world. I teach Bullet journal classes at our local bookstore as well as offsite locations for teachers and local businesses. You have been so generous in sharing your ideas and stitching techniques that have all been very helpful to me. I do not have a UA-cam channel but would like to in some way give back to you. If you ever need assistance with your bullet journal layouts or would just like to know more about the bullet journal method and how to apply it to your everyday please let me know. I would be happy to have virtual sessions or any other way that is most convenient for you. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Thank You Lisa!!! Wow, a bullet journal expert!!!! I only discovered bullet journals about a year and a half ago, and they are working so well for me. I need to take the time to do a little more research and find ways to make mine even better, but I seem to just never find the time, lol. I will organize my thoughts and make a list of questions I want to ask you. I am writing your name down in my bullet journal right now!!!, LOL
I would love virtual lessons too! Lol! 😊
I would be happy to do that for both of you!
Wow, you finished a lot last year. Your sweater is really awesome 😍 Now I’m curious for your WIP’s and have to watch that video too 😉 Keep up the good work!
Thank You Kitty!
Thanks for sharing your methods of keeping track of events in your life. I use Goodreads to keep track of books I have read and want to read. At the end of the year I can download the information to an Excel spreadsheet with all the details including title, start date, end date, author, ISNB, and many other details. Then if I want to print it off I can. i also have a 5-year journal from Levenger. It has just a few lines for each day, but it is fun to look back at previous years to see what was happening on that date. I have a couple of my grandfather's old diaries, and they are a treasure to read.
Loved hearing about your organization, I have a goodreads account, but keep forgetting to update it. I didn't even know you could download at the end of the year!!! Thank You!! My mom keeps a 5 year journal like that, I love it!!
Great planning ideas! Between you and Jen Lee I should be able to track my stitching, which I’ve not ever done successfully. Thank you.
Thank You, and good luck with the planning!! I am doing better now that I keep my planner right next to my stitchy chair, and write it in every night before I get up to go to bed :)
Beautiful finishes! What a wonderful idea with a migraine tracker, will probably do it next year
Thank You Ana! Best wishes with the migraines :)
Wow! It’s been so fun watching your progress this year! I’m just going to say I love all of your projects! I keep a bullet journal too - next time we get together we should make some time to plan together! I got some great ideas from you today. Thanks for sharing your stitching and planning and I’m off to watch your next video- happy new year!
Thank You Sharon!!! Who knew we were both BuJo people!!!!! Yes, definitely, next time lets have some planner conversations :)
Your explanation of your journals was most interesting and gave me food for thought. All I currently do is a monthly list for knitting and cross stitch projects I have completed, but that might just change. I especially like the Sunday sit down to reflect back on the days of the week. I am 73 and am sure that would be a helpful brain activity.
I am glad it was helpful :)
🤗Thank you Brenda for this informative video! Great ideas! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Hi Brenda, lovely to see all your amazing stitching, you accomplished many finishes throughout the year. Let it Snow is a particular favourite of mine, I have stitched it myself but don't particularly like the frame I have it in so may be changing this. I would be interested to see how you FFO yours. Also love the pretty colours in the Soda Stitch designs.
Thank You Susan! I am not sure how I am going to finish it, I am sure yours is beautiful!!! I might frame it, or I might make it into a pillow to put out at Christmastime. I love the colors in Soda Stitch as well, for some reason I love bright clear colors, lol!
Wow, you were busy last year! Very nice job.
Thank You Sarah!
Thank you Brenda. Interesting ideas on keeping stitchey records which is something I want to try and stick to. I’m a bit hit and miss! X
I am glad it was helpful, best wishes on keeping your records!
I really enjoyed this video especially all your planner info. I have a master wip book but might track my stitching more this year. Also found your bullet journal interesting as never quite understood that idea before.
Thank You Lynette! I am glad it was helpful!
Brenda that was a great video and I loved seeing all your finishes. Congratulations on getting so many done! I'm especially interested in your healing garden - I'm also a migraneur and track my headaches. I may email you with some questions. Your planners are awesome! I don't stitch the same volume that you do, but I want to track my projects and this gave me lots of ideas. Thanks for making all 3 videos! So fun and interesting to watch! Happy New Year and happy stitching for 2020!
Thank You Janet! Yes, feel free to email me! Always nice to talk to someone else and know that you are not the only one :) I love planners, just the organizing and planning makes me happy, lol. Aside from the actual doing of the thing!
Shepherd's Bush is a magical place.
I so agree!! :)
Beautiful finishes. While watching this I finished my first piece stitching on linen. I was afraid to stitch on linen but you have been an inspiration and I am hooked. Thank you 🥰
Thank You Lori, and congrats on your first linen finish!!! I'm so glad I was helpful :)
Brenda, it’s so nice “spending” some time with you! I love all your finishes and your planner! I’m a shores at hawk run hollow drop out 🤦🏼♀️ I LOVE yours so much! Maybe I’ll get back to it one day. Looking forward to seeing all your stitchy projects in 2020!
Kristie, you should definitely get back to your Hawk Run Hollow piece! Which one is it?
What beautiful finishes! Your planner is amazing. You are so organized. Congratulations on your finishes!
Thank You Paulette!
Of course I enjoyed your WIP parade, but the paper nerd inside me was in love with your planner portion.
Thank You!! And I am so happy to know another paper nerd, lol!!! I think the paper, and the planning, and the colors, and pens, is as much fun as the actually doing of the thing!!
I have a 3"×2" photo printer that uses Zink based adhesive paper (Canon Ivy). This might be useful for the retreat pages of your journal to help you remember people's names. Hp also has the Sprocket mini photo printer. Hope that helps 🌹
P.S. You can use the pics for your ideas page 😘
Thank You Viv!! Those are fabulous ideas!!
Every one of your FOs is so pretty! What a full, eclectic year of stitching, Brenda! Happy New Year🎉! Karen of Prom Queen Stitcher.
Hi Karen! Thank you, as I was reviewing the video before I published it I had the same thought "wow, that is a strange combination of styles and types of stitching" LOL. I do seem to like a variety of things for sure :)
Loved to see your FOs and how you plan. Hope you have a great stitching 2020.
Thank You!!
Love your finishes and wow what a year! Cant see what you do in the 2020!
Thank You!
Lots of finishes and I like your planner ideas!
Thank You Inge!
The bullet journal is a great idea. If you could and don't mind sharing your set up in would-be very greatfull. You are such a great and fast stitcher
Thank You :) I don't mind sharing at all, but I pretty much showed you almost all the pages in this video. I hand draw my pages, I don't use rulers or templates, just free-hand draw the lines and the lettering. And I learned everything I know at bulletjournal.com. I use a combination of colored pencils, brush markers (like Tombow, although I mostly have an off-brand), and the Staedtler "triplus fineliner" markers. I use the Pigma Micron black markers to "draw" the layouts of the pages, usually an 05 or an 08. And my favorite pen to carry with me for the every day writing in it is the Pilot Juice .38 pen. Let me know if you have any other questions :)
Every one of your FO’s is so pretty, Brenda! What a great year of stitching!
I guess it's pretty randomly asking but does anyone know a good site to stream new movies online?
@Houston Bodie flixportal
@Jamie Titus Thanks, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I appreciate it!
@Houston Bodie Happy to help :)
Awesome finishes for 2019!🎉. Happy New Year!🎉🍾🎊🥂
Thank You Chelle!
This was such a great video! Love seeing all your 2019 accomplishments and you gave great ideas for tracking projects. I've kept an Excel spreadsheet for years for my hobbies (quilting and cross stitching) but want to move it to my planner but didn't quite know how to organize it. Thanks!
Thank You Theresa! I am glad it was helpful, and I am happy to know another person who likes to keep records on their hobbies :)
Very nice!
Thank You Pamela!
Your finishes are the bomb, girl.
Thank You Loraine!!
Lots accomplished in 2019. I liked seeing your planning ideas. I'm trying to keep a better record of my stitching for 2020.
Thank You Debbie!
Can you give me the name and designer of the pattern of the houses and birdhouses above
Hi Sheri! I think you mean "Maisons et Nichoirs" by a mon ami pierre
