Mary Ellen you really should consider making printable stickers (if a sticker book is too daunting) you have quite a following and people would print/cut their own stickers to have your doodles in their planner. Icons, doodle boxes, decorative doodles and lines, etc. just a thought 😍
If anyone can conquer how to decorate and pen the dashboard, it’s you! I’m looking forward to seeing how you evolve it. Thank you for this fresh new content! I’m inspired!
I was a little anxious changing back to a dashboard this week. It never stopped working for me, I just wanted to try something new last year. But I got it decorated and wrote in!
Love it! I'm so used to planning my days on my mini dashboard that I totally got you when you said you don't know how to put stickers on the week side.
It’s so funny because I feel the same way as you except about a vertical layout. My mind just doesn’t work that way, but the dashboard is perfection to me! It’s crazy how we are all so different.
THANK YOU for the encouraging words about not making the first week of the planner perfect! I have tried a few years ago and failed at the first month. Now I am trying again and of course the first week came out horrible. All over the place. But I know I can get better. I was planning along with you! :)
I've started naming my spreads and stickers when I have sticker time with my toddler. I did my spread a few weeks back when I had a moment between newborn and toddler needing mom, before I had to go back to work 😂
I was so excited to see this spread because I decided to use a dashboard layout for the first time this year. I felt it was a sign to get back into my planner when I heard you were switching to this layout. I’m a little nervous about decorating it. Wish me luck, and Happy New Year!
So adorable! I'm using a Big Dashboard for the first time. It's fun to change things up! Looking forward to seeing how you decorate the Dashboard! Happy New Year! 🎉
So I absolutely loved this video! My daughter and I have started naming not only my spreads, but the animals and girls that I add to it as well. I love making new spreads and starting off in a fresh new planner.
Yup, I was pretty anxious about starting my 2024 planner because, like you, I switched it up…no quite as drastic as you, I went from classic vertical to a bog vertical. I did do a blue snowy spread for my first week and I love the way it turned out but next week will,have lots of color! Happy New you to you and all of your family, including those fur babies!
I haven't started to actually do the spread yet. Just getting the pages in as I am doing a franken planner. Hits and pieces of every planner. I started two weeks ago usually a classic cause I used a big. Bought four divided them into threeonths. Went to actually plan in them and it said nope going back to big and then I am grabbing from other bigs to make mine and I love it. Just gotta decorate now. I tried like you to do the classic and just loving the big better. Good luck to you, Mary Ellen on the classic. By the way, my name is Mary Ellen too, but I get called Mare.
Huh. I love that sticker book and totally forgot to buy it! Good luck with dry January! I am trying to drink (non caffeinated) herbal tea in the evenings for a cozy relaxing vibe. Something like that might help. I am trying a dashboard with you this year so I am excited to see how it goes for me. I think I will go through a ton less boxes because I will just use little icons for my kids' extracurriculars.
I have also switched from a vertical layout to horizontal for 2024 so this has inspired me. Also, wishing you and yours a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year❤
I'll admit, I am wary of that dashboard layout. You made it look great. I love the cheerful colors. I only named my last spread of 2023. Not sure if I will make it a 2024 thing.
This spread turned out cute! I'm super excited that you switched to a dashboard planner this year, because I also switched from a classic vertical to a classic dashboard. I've also started a creative journal in a HP Big Notes. 😀💖👍
Love the fun spread. I’ve adopted a dashboard for my health planner so I’m glad you’ll be working with one as well. You’re layouts are always so fun. Blessings to you and yours for 2024.
What a cute spread! It's so cheerful and that is a great way to start the new year. I have a sassy girl too. She was growling at the dehydrator waiting for the chicken jerky to get done. LOL Happy New Year!
What a cute spread, I agree, it's nice to have a bright & fun spread for the New Year! Love those sunny risograph sticker books, might pick them at some point! I got the risograph planner though, it's so bright and pretty! 💛
You definitely inspired me to change up my January monthly and first week of 2024 layouts. I usually stick to winter themed for January but I loved your ideas of making January layouts for fun! I haven’t named any of my spreads, but I did guess “a sweet new year” before you said it! Best wishes for a Happy 2024! 🎉🥳
Once again, you’ve crushed it. This is so incredibly cute! I wish my brain could work like yours when I’m making my spreads. You have such a great talent!
CBS This Morning (January 3rd) has a list of the Best Non-Alcoholic Drinks for 2024. They will probably post it here or later on their streaming channel CBS News, in case you're looking for something new.
Haha Bumble is hilarious.
That is the most fun to-do list! 😁

One thing about selling downloadable stickers is that you can do a few at a time, when ever you get a chance. 💖🌞🌵😷
Love your channel! I plan on naming my spreads and giving the people and animals names starting 2024!
If anyone can conquer how to decorate and pen the dashboard, it’s you! I’m looking forward to seeing how you evolve it. Thank you for this fresh new content! I’m inspired!
I love Bumble ❤ l have a Black, and White Shih Tzu named Wesley; and they look so much alike. Please show more of Bumble this year!
The polka dots look like smarties!!!
Bumble cracks me up 😂
Love the cuteness and bright colors!
Very cute. I did bright fun colors for my 1st week spread too. Inspiration to keep me awake going back to work. Lol
I haven’t even got my planners picked out yet!! Hopefully I will get it done tonight

Happy New Year to you, Mike, and all your family 🎉
Love it! I'm so used to planning my days on my mini dashboard that I totally got you when you said you don't know how to put stickers on the week side.
Just love your videos! I feel like I'm sitting down having coffee with you and just chatting! ☺
I love this so much!! What a great spread to the new year!! And I like you in this style planner because you are having to try new things!!
Would LOVE to see an after the pen to see how you end up utilizing this layout!
It’s so funny because I feel the same way as you except about a vertical layout. My mind just doesn’t work that way, but the dashboard is perfection to me! It’s crazy how we are all so different.
Love the bright colors! 😍💕

I have started naming my spreads! I also didn't do a traditional New Year's spread this year.
So darn inspiring and cute!

First comment, yay!! Happy new year!! 🎉 I’m trying to jump back into planning so I’m a little nervous too.
Not naming my spreads. Cute spread. Happy New Year! Praying for wellness and healing of illnesses.❤😊
A perfect name

Love it. Happy New Year
I name my weekly spreads now too. My first week Jan 2024 is "New Year, Who This?". Lol
Very Cute Spread... Definitely will cheer you up! You did great with the Dashboard layout. Happy Year 🎉
Love it! Your spread is bright and cheerful. Happy New Year!
Wishing you and yours a happy and healthy new year xxx PS love the spread
I have also switched from a vertical layout to horizontal for 2024 so this has inspired me. Also, wishing you and yours a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year❤
Me too! Love seeing some different ideas that aren't vertical, I was starting to second guess myself!

Oh this is so adorably sweet...great job! Yes I will try to name my spreads this year..sounds like fun!☺
Happy New Year! I was looking forward to this video. I was so ecxited when you told Dashboard will be your catch-all planner. 😍
Once again, you’ve crushed it. This is so incredibly cute! I wish my brain could work like yours when I’m making my spreads. You have such a great talent!
Omg so cute! I love it ! Thanks for the inspo!
I definitely started naming my spreads because of you. Thanks for sharing! Love how bright and colorful and inviting this is ❤
Happy New Year!
My dog hears Bumble and now she's woofing, lol
Pretty spread... Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! I love hearing sassy remarks from your partner in crime. Thanks for the video!
I switched to try the horizontal, and I'm stuck lol
Cute

You have inspired me to start naming my spreads this year! I think you should change your IG handle to planning with Grumble LOL I love her sass 😂❤
🤣
🎉🎉🎉
But then you get such little space for actual planning
Tissues and dirty underwear. Delilah will wiggle all over them (tmi) 😂
