    I will be using an A6 blank notebook for 2025. I drew out my own weeklies and have a month-at-a-glance calendar (made from a stamp set.) I like the portability factor because I carry smaller-size purses these days, and I like to take my planner with me everywhere I go! I do have lots of TNs (and all the accessories), but use them more for journaling, although I may move back into one as a planner somewhere down the road. My handwriting is on the large side, so I struggle with the Monthly Calendar inserts and stick with Weekly! Your video gave me some new ideas, so thank you!

    Enjoyed your video. Nice setup! 😍 I’m almost done with my 2025 setup. I’m waiting on the 12 business card file insert to arrive and some minor decor and I’ll be done. I’m a bujo functional planner gal at heart. I plan to use the Travelers Company standard as my main planner to document everything and I also have the same setup in personal and pocket rings. I know myself and I like to use different planners throughout the year, but I’m making sure I have one main one that’s updated 100%. TFS! ❤️🤗

    I just set up a Plotter mini 5 with the intent to carry it as my wallet and edc but find it’s too small for my needs and then I also need a coin purse but it’s a Plotter so it can’t bulk 😂 I just changed to a small Hobonichi drawer pouch lol. But for EDC planner, I hope to test out a paper tess pocket daily! My main planner for 2025 that’ll stay at home on my desk is a b6 twines and paper - purely functional too!
    I always have hopes to use a TRC as a main planner one day! Maybe when I don’t have as much going on and so many schedules to juggle in this season of life.
    Love your set up! 😍😍

      @@deannaxplans Yes I so need a coin purse… so that’s why I’m just separating wallet and planner. The mini things are so cute but not practical for me. And the TRC inserts are pretty simple so I know it’s not for everyone.
      oh but papertess has been on my list forever because the designs are so lovely! I just have no idea why I would need it - 🤣 ahhh the struggle is real! I really want the daily pocket for no reason ❤️

    It was interesting to see your canvas wallet and hear your thoughts on it. I’ve just got an olive green one from Esty. It’s very stiff and like you I did wonder if a washing cycle would soften it. My zip is ok though.

      @tortagialla  Місяць тому +3

      @@OldWhistler7743 Thanks for sharing! I suppose there are many off brand ones and they seem less cottony and soft than the travelers official ones. But since I haven’t used it, I’m not sure if one is better than another. I just don’t like the stiff feel - not soft to touch! I think I might try washing it and report back because I don’t mind messing it up. I’m worried it’ll just get totally wrinkled and I’ll have to iron it - like I need more laundry work 🤣

    I totally get the not re-writing thing, then it feels like a hassle. I've been thinking about how to improve stuff I write in my planner that also appears in emails or on my work calendar so I don't feel repetitive. And also if I couldn't get cards out of the wallet slots, that would definitely drive me crazy!
