This video is AWESOME!!! Love your style and can't wait to visit all the cool shops you suggested. Thank you. Hope you keep us updated on your progress.
It's been a busy week at work, which means not a whole lot of time to look at my planner throughout the day. This was a great inspiration and motivation for me to get back into my planner!
Oh my gosh, I LOVE the Pomodoro Technique. It is incredibly effective and helps me get my work projects done on time, and with focus. I love the sticker to track it! Thank you so much, and I would love to see a "Plan with me" video. Best wishes, Kim
I totally watch these videos just to see what you get up to on a day to day basis and I also look at what you're eating for some inspiration! I actually plan everything in my life on my google calendar which is synced to my iPhone 6+ because I love being paperless. I also use my reminders app on my phone religiously as a working to-do list with multiple different tabs like Groceries, Receipts, Reminders, etc. just like you're notepad page that you washy tape on the end of the month. Anyways, thanks for another awesome video! You're the kind of person I wish I was friends with!
+Elizabeth Miller I wish we all lived close so we could have big meet-ups and talk about beauty + life. Thanks for the comment! I love to hear how people plan. : )
I love that your planner is beautiful yet functional. It's the perfect amount of stickers for my taste. I would love to see more plan with me videos to help me learn how to plan. Particularly I would love to see how you plan goals. It's something that I'm struggling with now
Hi Ashley, I love your all your Plan with Me videos. They are very inspirational. I would say your videos are the best planning videos I’ve seen on UA-cam! Thanks for sharing all the things you use to make your planner beautiful and functional. I get to know InkWELL press planner from your channel and immediately fell in love with it. Just bought their newly launched 2017 planner as a gift for my friend and she loves it too! Love your makeup videos a lot too! Can’t wait to see more videos from you~~!
Binder style brings me back to the days of using a Filofax. I miss it and every year think I'll go back to it. Always LOVE your planner videos, Ashley! Very inspiring! xo
Love Love your planner videos. I purchased the Inkwell Press planner per your recommendation and I absolutely love it. I get a lot of great ideas from your planner series because you still keep it simple and clean! Hope to see more this year.
Oh, thank you thank you thank you for having an eye for keeping your planner aesthetically gorgeous, but also practical and professional. You, more than anyone else, have inspired me last spring to get my own planner and personalize it to my needs while still keeping it simple. Thank you!
Ashley, I just have to tell you that you are a GREAT example to me. Thank you so much for sharing your planner organizational tips! I have searched for planner inserts that I feel I can honestly use to maximize my time and failed miserably. I think the LucKaty stickers are going to be most helpful! I have been subscribed to you for a couple of years (this account of mine is new) and I feel like I know you and we are just best buds organizing life together. Anyway! You are so beautiful and poised, and exude confidence and kindness from every pore! Have an awesome day!
+Alicia Olsen Alicia, I can't tell you how much I appreciate your comment. I've been having the worst day - I think my camera or mic is broken : ( - but reading this put a smile on my face. Thanks for sticking with me and for the kind words.
Beautiful planner. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions. Looking forward to hear how this planner worked for you at the end of the year. Shalom.
Your planner videos are so inspirational...I need to work on mine now! I'm using the Rifle Paper Co. planner this year and am loving it. Definitely going to check out those sticker shops! :)
Oh my gosh, LOVE your planner videos! Ok, let's be honest, love all your videos... You've inspired me to get my butt in gear again and get going on my planner. I have the flouro pink from Filofax and love it!
Your planner is organized, functional, minimally decorated, and so pleasing to look at! I'm jealous of your handwriting! I have the Inkwell Press inserts in my Filofax A5 patent nude and I love it! I also have a Bullet Journal that I use mainly as a brain dump/daily download. Would you consider doing a Bullet Journal flip through sometime? It would go so well with your chic and minimalist style :-)
+Jennifer Jacinto One day I'm going to get a Patent Nude - I think it's the most stylish Filofax! RE: Bullet Journaling...I started following Boho Berry on IG, but I still really don't get Bullet Journaling. I'll have to look up some basic starter videos so I get a better understanding. : )
I was pretty smitten by the patent nude. Yeah look into bullet journaling - I think it's genius. I'm almost finished reading "Getting Things Done" so the bullet journal is great for listing "collections" and "projects." You can also incorporate the method into your current planner if you wish. Thanks! :-)
+makeupTIA btw I found a similar bathroom glass storage container at Target over the weekend with copper colored metal. Thanks for the inspiration. I also mentioned it/you in my recent blog post and I would love it if you could check it out materealgirl.wordpress.com/2016/02/24/a-stationary-love-story/
I've been hoarding our company's promotional erasable pens every time I go out with out the Sales team... Thanks so much for an erasable pen recommendation! Much cuter and they are refillable I see! Day Designer fans- I saw they sent out a free download printable today for the A5 planner!
i wanted to point you in the direction of a pen id recommend since you like the pilot frixion pens. the tattoo-design on the one you have is a bit of a deal breaker for me but i found they carry other frixion pens too that are slimmer, finer, and come in a variety of colors. they are sold individually or in sets and even make fine markers too. i love them all and highly recommend them! i would also recommend checking them out on the jetpens dot com site. that sit has an amazing pen selection.
The Japanese Frixion pens are all over Amazon. Look into them -- they have many different styles. They even have erasable highlighters, which I've been using for a half a year now.
Heads up! The pilot pens are amazing!! However if your planner gets cold (I live in Canada, so if I leave something in the car) everything that you erased comes back. Also, if it gets too hot, like if you leave it too close to a vent or on the dash of your car, it will erase everything. Just something to keep in mind!
Great video! Will definitely look into Inkwell Press inserts next time. I, too, was using a coil bound planner but like the binder style better. Will subscribe to your channel.
Your planner is so adorable!! I wanted the IWP A5 inserts but by the time I could buy them they were sold out! I think that it wouldn't have been enough space for me though. I've been using the Day Designer inserts and I would definitely be cramped using the IWP! Though, I used to have the bound IWP.
Love watching your planning videos! You have me drooling over all those Rifle items! If you're looking for colorful binders, Webster's Pages makes the cutest ones called Color Crush. They're also a scrapbooking company, so you might have to check online stores like Scrapbook.com for them. :)
I'm using the IWP inserts in a Filofax and I just love everything about it (so much so that I started doing PWM vids, ha)! So pleased to see how you are setting yours up, I really love your planner videos. Practical and pretty at the same time. Thank you for sharing! I saw you were looking for suggestions for a colorful binder choice - have you checked out Kikki K? They have some pretty and fun colors and also some textured leather ones.
Really enjoyed watching your video as always! I just noticed that you wrote " re-fold dresser using Marie Kondo method " on the planner, could you please share your thoughts about the method and probably your declutter process as well as result with us ? Thank you !
Love this video! Would be interested to see your method for setting up your flex planner for the week. I am struggling with a good system. I have the quarterlies so much smaller space :(
Wow - I wish my planner looked that neat (in tidiness, and ascetics). It's absolutely lovely! I love the Pilot Frixion erasable pens! (The Frixion colored pens are great too!) A darling video, as always! I do have a request - you are always so "put together", perhaps you could do a video on personal style? It seems to be a trend right now, I'd love your take on it. :)
I needed to look out for a different way of planning ,the way I do it now aint working ,your way is nicer, neat and functional like what I need currently .OT it's cute that your family have their BDs in the same month 2 aquarius and 1Pisces
Have a look at the Kikki K binders they are super cute... Can't believe it has taken me this long to stumble upon your channel... Fellow redhead planning cat lady from the UK here :-) :-) x
Have you ever checked out Cloth & Paper? They are amazing for inserts and tabs as well as accessories if you are not crazy about the blue Inkwell tab pages. :)
I loooove your handwriting, it's very tidy! And those rosegold paper clip, where are they from? I bought a gold one from kikki k but yours are so much cuter 😍
I am getting so inspired to start with my first planner (since school) soon! Your videos are so easy on the eyes, this one gave me a good sense of how to get started. One question - do you discard or keep all the old pages of your binder? I can't imagine discarding something that you put a lot of time into...Thanks!
The writing of the erasable pen may disappear overtime. Let's say you store the planner in a warm place, the writing will disappear over time. I'm not sure whether the ink will stay there for a long period of time. If you don't plan on keeping the planners as a keep sake, then it will be okay.
I love all your videos! And Rifle Paper Co too :) Because of you I've started looking into cute washi tape! Also, what editing software do you use for your videos? Your titles are always so pretty!
I went to Inkwell to try and purchase the inserts but they're sold out and don't do them anymore! :( Anyone know where I can still get them by any chance?
There are some on the resale market, but the inkWELL Press quarterlies which are A5 and in the same format as the inserts Ashley uses available on the inkWELL press website. I used one for the last quarter of 2015 and loved it, it's what motivated me to purchase them for this year. They're functional and beautiful, the paper quality, though still very good, is better in the inserts, but still very nice and the price is reasonable enough to make it affordable to try it and see how you get on with the format. Happy planning!
That stencil is the most genius thing I have ever seen. Buying it now! Love these videos, they are such an inspiration or how I lay out my planner.
This video is AWESOME!!! Love your style and can't wait to visit all the cool shops you suggested. Thank you. Hope you keep us updated on your progress.
Thank you for this video, Ashley. I also use an Inkwell Press A5 insert. And I adore Luckaty's stickers. She has beautiful and functional stickers.

your planner is a dream! thank you for sharing!
Wow! Great video to the point! I've struggle with decorating and planing with my very first inkwell press planner. This has been a huge help!
Your mission statement is so beautiful!
Love Love your planner videos. I purchased the Inkwell Press planner per your recommendation and I absolutely love it. I get a lot of great ideas from your planner series because you still keep it simple and clean! Hope to see more this year.
I just started using my first planner...an Inkwell Press Flex. I love your planner style! Thanks for sharing!
Your videos and your planner layouts are awesome. Your handwriting is sooo neat!
Oh, thank you thank you thank you for having an eye for keeping your planner aesthetically gorgeous, but also practical and professional. You, more than anyone else, have inspired me last spring to get my own planner and personalize it to my needs while still keeping it simple. Thank you!
I agree! It's pretty but practical, I can't take the super cutesy, stickers on top of stickers... This is perfect!
This is such a beautiful video!
Such a beautiful video and planner set up! Thank you for sharing!
This is my favorite of all your planner videos :)
Yes to more planner videos! I'm going to have to get one of these binders.

Love this!! Have always wanted to try a binder
Binders are really fun! I love being able to add and move around sections. : )
This was SO helpful and I love your system!
+Mollie Rose Which video was the one about the time management technique?
Loved the layout! I've been wanting new ideas for mine. I also put the daily weather forecast for the day with weather stamps and the hi/ low temps
You have the best planner videos on youtube!
This is a fantastic planner video!
We have matching phone cases ☺️ I love Rifle Paper Company!
+Anna Marinello 👯 looove RPC!
This is so very helpful! Thank you!
I love your planner videos! This is how I discovered IWP and would love to see another with me video.
I love Luckaty. She is awesome. The stickers are wonderful. I am going to look into the other stickers you mentioned.
Beautiful planner. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions. Looking forward to hear how this planner worked for you at the end of the year. Shalom.
I love your planner videos they put me in such a relaxing place please do more!
Awesome setup
+Christine Rivera Thanks, Christine!

Your planner videos are so inspirational...I need to work on mine now! I'm using the Rifle Paper Co. planner this year and am loving it. Definitely going to check out those sticker shops! :)
lovely! So inspired! Thanks! xx
Ashley, honey ....You don't EVER scribble ! Wish I was patient enough to write small and prettier ~ As always, Love your videos.
Oh my gosh, LOVE your planner videos! Ok, let's be honest, love all your videos... You've inspired me to get my butt in gear again and get going on my planner. I have the flouro pink from Filofax and love it!
Love your planner videos! Can you do another meal prep video?
This is my first time watching your UA-cam. I love my inkwell I have the a5 in a purple Filofax Malden!
Your planner is organized, functional, minimally decorated, and so pleasing to look at! I'm jealous of your handwriting! I have the Inkwell Press inserts in my Filofax A5 patent nude and I love it! I also have a Bullet Journal that I use mainly as a brain dump/daily download. Would you consider doing a Bullet Journal flip through sometime?

Thanks! :-)
Oh my gosh I just LOVE all of this. Can you please share where you got the container you are storing your washi tape in? It's so clever!
+MommieStar In the bath section at Anthropologie! I think it's meant for jewelry, but it's perfect for people with way too much washi. ; )
+makeupTIA awesome! Thanks for sharing!
+makeupTIA btw I found a similar bathroom glass storage container at Target over the weekend with copper colored metal. Thanks for the inspiration. I also mentioned it/you in my recent blog post and I would love it if you could check it out materealgirl.wordpress.com/2016/02/24/a-stationary-love-story/
Love this! Has really motivated me to organise myself a bit with planners - I'm terrible at keeping mine up to date :'(
+Ella's Edit Some weeks are like that for me too. I find that when I keep my planner out on my desk, I'm much more likely to use it. : ))
line the dividers with a sheet of clear laminating paper, would be super easy and double durable.
+Abigail Carter Good idea. Thanks, Abigail!

a tiffany blue would be super pretty if they had one in a colour similar to that!

At 9:32, what is the lined check box stamp you used on the note paper?
+Crystal VanTassel Hi, Crystal. No stamp - that's just what the notepad looks like. It's from Rifle Paper Co. : )

just began planning this year, love your ideas. Thank you for sharing. Question: where did you get your phone case?
+Jana Edwards It's from Rifle Paper Co. : )
I'm extremely disappointed that inkwell press is no longer making inserts. I was going to order some tonight.
I needed to look out for a different way of planning ,the way I do it now aint working ,your way is nicer, neat and functional like what I need currently .OT it's cute that your family have their BDs in the same month 2 aquarius and 1Pisces
Have a look at the Kikki K binders they are super cute...
Can't believe it has taken me this long to stumble upon your channel...
Fellow redhead planning cat lady from the UK here :-) :-) x
I keep missing it, but who did the dividers for you? The monthly tabs?
Have you ever checked out Cloth & Paper? They are amazing for inserts and tabs as well as accessories if you are not crazy about the blue Inkwell tab pages. :)
I loooove your handwriting, it's very tidy! And those rosegold paper clip, where are they from? I bought a gold one from kikki k but yours are so much cuter 😍

One question - do you discard or keep all the old pages of your binder? I can't imagine discarding something that you put a lot of time into...Thanks!
If you don't mind me asking, where did you get the clear box with gold trim to house your washi tape? Thanks!
What's the font of the title ("planner setup") of the video?
Really enjoy the quality of your videos! :)
The writing of the erasable pen may disappear overtime. Let's say you store the planner in a warm place, the writing will disappear over time. I'm not sure whether the ink will stay there for a long period of time. If you don't plan on keeping the planners as a keep sake, then it will be okay.

Happy planning!
+Katy Larson well the thing is I have a binder planner and the quarterlies are just like notebooks right?
+Charlotte Suen I removed the staples, and punched it with my A5 Open brand punch. I use the punch to add note pages and extras with it. As well.
+Charlotte Suen sorry, forgot to mention I cut the sheets apart.
I dragged my feet on getting a new planner and now Inkwell are sold out for the year :(
Love their accessories but sadly their planners are split leather which means the base layer is leather and then they coat it with a synthetic layer.
