You are so inspirational. I am 21 year old woman beginning to work on my future career plans. I love using your videos as a resource as you just seem to be such a strong leader! Thank you for setting an example for young women like me! Much love.
I've become a UA-cam junkie of sorts, but the greatest tip I ever received was from Ms. Nikki: Don't just buy a lot of supplies, take note of what you really need or you'll end up spending hundreds of dollars on stuff you do not need. Thank you Nikki, for being such a huge blessing. Big hugs💕Happy New Year💗
Nikki i have never been a fan of planners all the stickers and washi tape put my head in a spin, but you have turned that thought completely around, love your classy planner style.
I was a planner addict when I taught and worked. Now that I'm retired I use a plain vanilla journal (from TJ Maxx ) that I write in, sketch in, and keep track of my cleaning schedule. But I still love to look at planners! I scrapbook so my love of all things paper has an outlet. Thanks for the inspiration!
Hi Nikki... I have been following your channel for 2 years and just love, love, love every video you make. You have helped organize my home! I am so grateful. Thanks
Ahh. My morning coffee and a new Nikki vid! Great start to my day. Great planner tips and gorgeous pens. I am a paper planner for life and I believe in combining work and home as a way to be productive and organized. As always, TFS!
Thank you so much. I have tried to use my smart phone for years. But I love having a planner. And I was feeling a bit embarrassed until I watched this video. I am going back to my planner. I love how you organized the business and home daily section. I cant wait to by a new one for 2018. And the best part is that resource book and the cute little meal prep book! Thank you so much!
Very good advice! I went on a crazy sticker buying frenzy when I first saw everyone's beautiful layouts. I've since discovered I prefer my planner to be more functional than decorative.
I am a phone/computer planner. Google calendar, docs, sheets, etc. I organize the whole family on Google Calendar. I can add events for my husband and 17 year old and they show up on their phone. I have even ditched my desk calendar that I used to have. I feel 'free' having it on the computer. But, I do appreciate the 'tactile' aspect and 'pretty' of your planner.
Jill Bauer Ahhh! Sounds like planner peace :) I like digital, especially for calendaring. One of my friends was showing me Cozi for actually planning, but I'm a statistic. I do better with eye, brain, hand, tactile for internalizing my goals and plans. And then I'm paranoid. I don't like the idea of any of my personal information floating around the ethernet :/
Good morning my friend! There is nothing better than having my morning coffee with you! I am a new planner. Just bought a recollection planner from Michaels. Thanks for your tips!
Your advice for purchasing a first planner is excellent! I purchased my first 2 years ago and spent way too much $, and then ended up not being comfortable with the size, format etc and quickly abandoned working with it. I've recently decided to give planners another try and have just purchased a more economical "self-created" simpler system. Love your videos - I've just discovered them and have been pouring over them all afternoon!
Nikki, I absolutely love your videos! Your voice is so easy to listen to. I have absorbed so much information on such varied topics. Thanks so much for sharing!
I'm not a planner but I feel that you gave great tips for someone interested in planning or a beginner planner. If I ever change my mind, I know where to look to get started. Thank you once again
Nikki, ...I mean, the minute I start watching one of your videos now, I can FEEL endorphins flood my brain-- anticipation, excitement, euphoria, and human purring! You bless my world and I love you for sharing your many talents with all of us. Whenever people are impressed with my organization I will always credit you and tell them they can learn how to do what I do by checking out and subbing your channel. I think this is a calling you were meant to fulfill in this life. When I think about the help and happiness you are bringing to others, I am happy. I am watching your videos slowly but surely like someone eating expensive bonbons--savoring, not rushing! I don't want to run out!
Hi Nikki! I just got my new Erin Condren planner! This is my second one. I use the hourly layout and I absolutely love it. I decorate it to the max. I use it everyday. I just wanted to pop on here and tell you that I love your videos and I watch them all of the time!!! I also made my first purchase with the Grove Collaborative. Thank you for inspiring me!!! I love organization and cleaning. I have told everyone I know about your videos! You are lovely!!! I hope that you are having a wonderful day!!!
Last year I was in Goodwill and came across a brand new Filofax A5. It was purple leather from the U K and was still in the package. I paid $3.92 cents for it. I don't write in it that much because my handwriting is not nice, but I love holding it.
+ At Home With Nikki After watching your videos for a year now, I finally decided to start planning and following your tips, I was able to get into it, and now I truly enjoy planning. I find that going through the process of searching for a planner, accessories, ect, that it has helped me get things done easily. I went to Target's dollar spot and found a pretty pink one ! Thanks so much for posting these videos and the tips from both of your channels. They definitely have helped !
Looking forward to your menu planning results in that little diary. Menu planning is going to be a focus for me this year to save money and prevent waste.
Just subscribed today ! Loving your videos . I'm looking into doing a planner and found this really helpful . You really are the most organised lady ever . Definitely life goals xx
Hi, Nikki- awesome ! Thank you so very very much ! What a blessing. I enjoyed your presentation. I am inspired to get more serious in my planner by moving beyond my simple to do lists. I'm a glam-ma, an educator ( 35 years), very creative and a dance minister at CCC Brooklyn- so I need my planner to really be functional and look appealing. Your hints are amazing- because I have been very overwhelmed with choices. I am open and welcome to anymore suggestions or videos. Thank you again- you're a blessing ! Dobbie
Dear Nikki, I am a fairly new follower/subscriber and I just wanted to say "Hi" and thank you! I have binge watched you the last month and I love everything you do and share, you're style, your organization, your thoughtfulness. Your beauty and light shine through your videos! Thanks for sharing with the world for others to benefit!
This really helps. i was feeling overwhelmed because i never tried using a planner before and i am so busy, but i need it this year. i am taking STEM classes this year and every minute counts. i truly appreciate what you do. i am a new subscriber. God bless you and your family this year.
Hi Nikki i recently purchased a planner in October to use for Thirty One I'm a consultant, .and so far i the idea of having it to reference whenever i need it is so helpful..it's my first big planner I've always used a regular small purse calendar for everything but now I've purchased one for personal use as well.. thanks for all the tips God Bless
I totally agree to not rush and start off slow. Don't get caught up in the decorating and miss the goal of planning and staying on task with priorities.
I've tried doing a personal planner before but of course it got out of hand fast with all of the fun stickers and such, lol! I'm taking my time and hoping to use some of your tips. Love your planner.
Hi Nikki, Thank you so much for the informative planner video. It was perfect since I just got back into planning. Its been a lot of fun gathering materials and watching videos but I am fully engrossed and I love to stay organized. Thanks again for your insight. Have a blessed year!
I love the way you plan and try new things, especially the meal planning you'll be trying out! Now I would l to try that too! So elegantly beautiful! You're such an inspiration! Thank you! 💐
Oh Thanks so much for this video - I love it! I started a UA-cam channel a few months ago, I work a few hours a week, am busy with lots of church things and have a toddler running around the house. I feel like things can get overwhelming sometimes. I haven't ever tried using a planner seriously. That might just be my thing!
Hi Nikki I'm fairly new to your channel. One thing I have to say. I love the fact you are so organize in your life. This has inspired me to get on board. Thank you😃💫
Thanks Nikki!!! for the video I've been thinking about planning and getting a planner I really needed to hear that take it slow thanks so much for sharing
This makes me so happy!! I absolutely love anything stationary. Pens, planners, paper clips, stickers, folders, I love it all. I'm so glad I found your channel. Your planner is gorg! I'm subscribing.
Always love your videos! You have such great ideas! This video - wow! Hairpins! Such a creative re-use!!! Also, the notecards! Oh my goodness! My husband and I get SO many note cards from charitable organizations - never can write that many letters these days, so I will use them to write notes to myself! Also, love the idea of combining professional and personal planners into one. YOU should market that idea!!! Not sure I will use a planner that can use inserts like that, but it is a wonderful idea! (I remember you shared a video where you had two wallets - will have to search for that one, too.) So, off to plan I go! Thank you! Happy New Year!
Always enjoy your videos Nikki. If I can not sleep during the night, I watch your videos and some times start cleaning ! Thank you so much for all you do regards Susan Maccoll from Australia 💚💛💙
Nikki, I recently purchased a calendar that has worked for me in the past (Franklin Covey), and then went straight to UA-cam to hear from you. I needed some pointers and clarity, and you gave me that and more. Thank you so very much. By the way, you look fabulous, absolutely gorgeous. Your hair, lipstick, and nail color are very flattering on you. You look so pretty. Anyway, Happy New Year, and thanks again.
I found 3 ring planner insets for my Dayrunner at the Target dollar spot for $3!! Daily pages. Dividers etc! I'm sure they could be hole punched to fit more than 3 rings. Just FYI for anyone looking for budget friendly options.
Love your planner Nikki. I purchased an EC planner for this year. I too love beautiful pens. You gave awesome tips for organizing your life. Thank you for sharing.
I would love to spend a couple days with you to have some of your energy and ways rub off maybe. You amaze me every time I watch you. You are my super hero.
I 'am glad that you are doing a video on how to start planning this is something I do want to get into this will be very helpful for me. Great Job Nikki !!!
That's how I started out. I bought a cheap planner. Later on I started doing more research and found some great planners online. It was all she wrote after that lol I started buying more planner supplies, joining groups etc ❤️️🙏🏿
Ma'aam, YOU ARE AMAZING !!! I LOVE the GOLD. I decided in Oct 2016 to change to GOLD colors to keep me engaged and I love the privacy tips. Thank You for sharing. This video definitely provided great value for me !!! Infinite Blessing to you.
can't wait for your inspiration page...thank you for the tips...I found that I use three planners. one for family and meetings etc.etc.etc...one to journal as I am a teacher and this helps me to remember the day...and then I have a small one for my clutch bag
I share you feelings on clean and simple planners with just enough extras to make them pretty and functional. I've been a Franklin-Covey gal almost forever... but I started out slow, like you recommended, before I invested in a really nice planning system. Great advice, as per usual!
I love this video. You are to the point and not fumbling during the demonstration. I didn't know planners were such a big thing. I haven't carried one in years now that everything is online but thanks to you; I may start. Danka!
So excited to get back into my filo, your video made things feel SO much less overwhelming. Trying to plan with ADHD, it can be really hard to figure out where to start. Showing how, where and why you like to keep things was incredibly helpful. Fantastic volume control, wonderful and understandable speaking voice, and all around beautifully thorough video. Subscribed, and looking forward to watching you reach your goals! I cannot wait to show my friends your channel!!!
I love the idea of how you have combined home/work. I have been trying to work out a system that lets me use the one planner, I will have to try it this way. Thank you, Nikki!
Nikki great video! Your planner color scheme is so sharp, I love it. Very professional, sophisticated and chic. I really appreciate this style, there are lots of "cutesy" planner folks Out there. Been looking for the type of style you rep. Thanks again!
Hi Nikki As I stated in another vedio I'm relatively new to your channel and boy have I been missing out! Yes I'm easily drawn in by paper products, gizmos and tiny gadgets; so I'll have to pace myself. Nonetheless I'm looking forward to learning more about the benefits of using planners properly. You've helped me greatly in that regard. Thank you for sharing your talents and time in this way; it's needed. Regina
Happy New Year Nikki! Great planning tips , ( a mini printer, yay!). You inspire me to be more consistent with mine, especially with goals and menu planning. I love love all of your videos, but it's my first time commenting. I like to listen to your cleaning playlist when I'm cleaning, etc. , and always enjoy learning or "revisiting" a new thing or two every time! Thank you for all your hard work, (even though you make everything look easy), and for sharing ideas and a bit of yourself with us. Hugs from Canada 🇨🇦🤗❄️📒😊
I ordered my first Erin Condren customized with my own photos for the covers. Back one with all the grandies, and the front with my Aussie family and some inspiring scenery of Brissy. I am so excited and wish so much they would send it out soon & I can implement your tips. I have used other ones before. Can't wait to show you it. They call these "Diaries" down under.
Great tips and planners I definitive need to have a plan for this year. I have 3 girls, my husband and 3 dogs at home and that will help significant for starting my days. They all have different things to do and it just makes me forget things.
Thanks for sharing! Love the black and gold! So far I have always been using a very simple and small planner for work, writing in it in pencil because people tend to change appointments. I generally jot down some private things here and there but it's true that it's a challenge, for the privacy issue and not to make it too cluttered. I bought a second planner this year hoping to start using it for my personal goals, but have not started yet, a bit intimidated. take care and happy new year!
I love this (and all of) your videos! You're such an inspiration! I fell deep in the planner hole in 2016, but this year I'm determined to be more practical and productive with my planners. Thanks and Happy New Year😘
good advice about not jumping in full throttle in the beginning. I did that, after spending oodles of money realized the Personal size was too small! so i spent even more money on the A5 size and that's working much better for me.
Hi Nikki - I have never had a planner, as such, but I'm forever buying little note books and making lists. A planner looks so much more organised and I may have to investigate this idea in more detail!! Love your videos and your whole outlook - I struggle at times when things get too much and there are days when I don't know where to start, but I've been subscribed for a little while now and I'm looking at previous vlogs too and I have been inspired by some of your ideas Nikki. You're really good at what you do - blessings for the new year. Ps I've also subscribed to your newsletter x
I love planning! I've been doing it for years, now I'm intrigued with the decorating aspects! So much pretty stuff!! You always have such great ideas!! Hugs, Tmika
I'm so glad you said that your business and home combined does not work for you, because I have tried this various times and has never worked. You are great thanks for all you great inspiration.
I love the idea to use a smaller book for meal planning. I'm trying to get back in the habit as well. At the end of each week, I'm like... I don't know what to cook! I really helps the week flow better when I prep
Your planner is so beautiful and classy I imagine it reflects you too. You also have some original ideas - like the hair pins as bookmarks - which i love, thanks.
Yay!!! Been hoping you would do a new planner video soon!! Been on Amazon and Michaels's looking thru the different planners. You look beautiful as always.. Happy New Year!!
TY! You have a beautiful, neatly organized planner. I like that u have a place to write down references. I have a place in my planner for that too - it is one of my tabs, not a separate book like you have.
I am using the Recollections planners because they are so reasonable in price. I got all of mine 1/2 price. I have them in 9 different colors. I usually change them out every 2 months. I get bored looking at the same color. I don't change purses though. I have a black one and a tan one. I am sure it would be different if I didn't stay at home all the time. I got some very good ideas on what to add to my planner from your video. Thank you Nikki.
Planning has become such a trend! I have been lost in the "washi tape" world. I can not get enough of washi tape! I have since slowed my roll...it's a good thing I have not got into stickers and themes. 😂😂😂I enjoyed this video and your tips on planning. I love your planner...it's simple and chic! You mentioned you plan to do an "Inspiration board" I would love for you to make a video. 😊
Hi my friends happy new year to you and your family and thank you so much for sharing your experience and beautiful Ideas God bless you and your family my friends.
I use a small planner that I can carry with me at all time, Google calendar (on my phone) to work with small planner, and a detailed planner for school and work (that stay in my backpack or at home).
Thank you for the tips on using a Planner I often use my iPhone but after watching your video I'm definitely considering buying a planner. I love how organized you are, I have to start being more organized specially now that I'm starting a business. Looking forward to more videos. I'm interested in learning how you shop for groceries online.
I was anticipating you doing a planner video for the new year, thank you. I've been going back through your prior vids to get ideas of what size, supplies/usage, style etc. to consider. This helps. A novice's question, why are the dividers called dashboards?
Hello Nikki - I'm trying planning for the first time and absolutely LOVE this video. Thanks for the pearls of wisdom regarding not rushing. HNY from a new fan follower!
Nikki, thank you for this video. I'm just looking into planning & enjoyed your tips for getting started. This entire video was extremely helpful & I know I will implement many of your ideas & helpful hints. I just found you & enjoy all of your videos thus far.
Wow, great video! I wish I would have watched it before I went to Michaels because I got overwhelmed. Almost all the planning things were so cute, and I wanted to buy everything lol. I'm going to use these tips to organize the things I bought. God Bless
Lovely. I love how put together you have everything. I'm new at planning but I do it mainly for decoration but I'm trying to plan also on one of them at least. Love everything you suggested and talked about on this video. Thank u for sharing. I really like the part of the tracking cards.
You are so inspirational. I am 21 year old woman beginning to work on my future career plans. I love using your videos as a resource as you just seem to be such a strong leader! Thank you for setting an example for young women like me! Much love.
I've become a UA-cam junkie of sorts, but the greatest tip I ever received was from Ms. Nikki: Don't just buy a lot of supplies, take note of what you really need or you'll end up spending hundreds of dollars on stuff you do not need.

Nikki i have never been a fan of planners all the stickers and washi tape put my head in a spin, but you have turned that thought completely around, love your classy planner style.
I love your videos! I'm 15 years old and definitely learn some great tips every time I watch your videos.
I love how classy and simplistic your planner is! 😍

Very good advice! I went on a crazy sticker buying frenzy when I first saw everyone's beautiful layouts. I've since discovered I prefer my planner to be more functional than decorative.
MellyMaeRose I'm the same way. my planner is to PLAN, not just be a sticker book.

Hello. I want to learn to do that. Any resources u can recommend? Thanks
Jill Bauer have you tried a digital planner? I just put one on my iPad Pro and I'm loving it. :)

Jill Bauer What if technology CRASH how would you keep up w/your schedule?
Good morning my friend! There is nothing better than having my morning coffee with you! I am a new planner. Just bought a recollection planner from Michaels. Thanks for your tips!
It's so refreshing to hear a common sense approach for new planner people. Thanks for another lovely video, Nikki.
Elegant planner just like your home and you! Thanks for all the great tips!

can't wait for your inspiration page...thank you for the tips...I found that I use three planners. one for family and meetings etc.etc.etc...one to journal as I am a teacher and this helps me to remember the day...and then I have a small one for my clutch bag
I share you feelings on clean and simple planners with just enough extras to make them pretty and functional. I've been a Franklin-Covey gal almost forever... but I started out slow, like you recommended, before I invested in a really nice planning system. Great advice, as per usual!
I love this video. You are to the point and not fumbling during the demonstration. I didn't know planners were such a big thing. I haven't carried one in years now that everything is online but thanks to you; I may start. Danka!
Love the idea of using the little pocket planners for menu planning. Went to Target today and picked up a couple of them. I love your ideas!
So excited to get back into my filo, your video made things feel SO much less overwhelming. Trying to plan with ADHD, it can be really hard to figure out where to start. Showing how, where and why you like to keep things was incredibly helpful. Fantastic volume control, wonderful and understandable speaking voice, and all around beautifully thorough video. Subscribed, and looking forward to watching you reach your goals! I cannot wait to show my friends your channel!!!
You are so professional , I admire you so much madam.
Thank you so very much! I hope your year is getting off to a great start! Hugs and Love Nik
Hi Nikki! You are really an epitome of very organize woman. Thank you for sharing. I really enjoy watching this video. You nailed it. God bless.
I really like the idea of a small planner to use for meal planning! Such a simple efficient solution to implement this in my planner, I love it!
Love love love ❤️. Happy New Year Nikki!!! Your videos always motivate me 🙂
I love the idea of how you have combined home/work. I have been trying to work out a system that lets me use the one planner, I will have to try it this way. Thank you, Nikki!
I love the way you organize your live.
Nikki great video! Your planner color scheme is so sharp, I love it. Very professional, sophisticated and chic. I really appreciate this style, there are lots of "cutesy" planner folks Out there. Been looking for the type of style you rep. Thanks again!
Hi Nikki
As I stated in another vedio I'm relatively new to your channel and boy have I been missing out!
Yes I'm easily drawn in by paper products, gizmos and tiny gadgets; so I'll have to pace myself.
Nonetheless I'm looking forward to learning more about the benefits of using planners properly.
You've helped me greatly in that regard.
Thank you for sharing your talents and time in this way; it's needed.

Happy New Year Nikki! Great planning tips , ( a mini printer, yay!). You inspire me to be more consistent with mine, especially with goals and menu planning. I love love all of your videos, but it's my first time commenting. I like to listen to your cleaning playlist when I'm cleaning, etc. , and always enjoy learning or "revisiting" a new thing or two every time! Thank you for all your hard work, (even though you make everything look easy), and for sharing ideas and a bit of yourself with us. Hugs from Canada 🇨🇦🤗❄️📒😊
Love the idea of priority tabs for my planner. I might give that a try.
I ordered my first Erin Condren customized with my own photos for the covers. Back one with all the grandies, and the front with my Aussie family and some inspiring scenery of Brissy. I am so excited and wish so much they would send it out soon & I can implement your tips. I have used other ones before. Can't wait to show you it. They call these "Diaries" down under.
Great tips and planners I definitive need to have a plan for this year. I have 3 girls, my husband and 3 dogs at home and that will help significant for starting my days. They all have different things to do and it just makes me forget things.
Thanks for sharing! Love the black and gold! So far I have always been using a very simple and small planner for work, writing in it in pencil because people tend to change appointments. I generally jot down some private things here and there but it's true that it's a challenge, for the privacy issue and not to make it too cluttered. I bought a second planner this year hoping to start using it for my personal goals, but have not started yet, a bit intimidated. take care and happy new year!
I love this (and all of) your videos! You're such an inspiration! I fell deep in the planner hole in 2016, but this year I'm determined to be more practical and productive with my planners. Thanks and Happy New Year😘
good advice about not jumping in full throttle in the beginning. I did that, after spending oodles of money realized the Personal size was too small! so i spent even more money on the A5 size and that's working much better for me.
I'm sooo happy i found you! like I'm just in awe at your creativity. thank you for making all your videos!
So many good ideas and tips! Love the long sticker/sticky notes too, I need to go find some of those =)
Hi Nikki - I have never had a planner, as such, but I'm forever buying little note books and making lists. A planner looks so much more organised and I may have to investigate this idea in more detail!! Love your videos and your whole outlook - I struggle at times when things get too much and there are days when I don't know where to start, but I've been subscribed for a little while now and I'm looking at previous vlogs too and I have been inspired by some of your ideas Nikki. You're really good at what you do - blessings for the new year. Ps I've also subscribed to your newsletter x
I love planning! I've been doing it for years, now I'm intrigued with the decorating aspects! So much pretty stuff!! You always have such great ideas!! Hugs, Tmika
I too love the use of planner and thanks to you ,I halve it organized and beautiful as well.
I'm so glad you said that your business and home combined does not work for you, because I have tried this various times and has never worked. You are great thanks for all you great inspiration.
I love the idea to use a smaller book for meal planning. I'm trying to get back in the habit as well. At the end of each week, I'm like... I don't know what to cook! I really helps the week flow better when I prep
Your planner is so beautiful and classy I imagine it reflects you too. You also have some original ideas - like the hair pins as bookmarks - which i love, thanks.
Perfect timing!! I'm so ready for my 2017 planners. Thanks for the great tips, Nikki!
great job nikki this has literally changed my life thank you so much for these tips my life would be so messy without u
Yes, those little planners @ Target are awesome! I have another type for the desk. Thanks for all your great tips.
Yay!!! Been hoping you would do a new planner video soon!! Been on Amazon and Michaels's looking thru the different planners. You look beautiful as always.. Happy New Year!!
Thank you so much! Happy New Year Lena! Hugs and Love Nik
TY! You have a beautiful, neatly organized planner. I like that u have a place to write down references. I have a place in my planner for that too - it is one of my tabs, not a separate book like you have.
I am using the Recollections planners because they are so reasonable in price. I got all of mine 1/2 price. I have them in 9 different colors. I usually change them out every 2 months. I get bored looking at the same color. I don't change purses though. I have a black one and a tan one. I am sure it would be different if I didn't stay at home all the time. I got some very good ideas on what to add to my planner from your video. Thank you Nikki.
Planning has become such a trend! I have been lost in the "washi tape" world. I can not get enough of washi tape! I have since slowed my roll...it's a good thing I have not got into stickers and themes. 😂😂😂I enjoyed this video and your tips on planning. I love your planner...it's simple and chic! You mentioned you plan to do an "Inspiration board" I would love for you to make a video. 😊
Hi my friends happy new year to you and your family and thank you so much for sharing your experience and beautiful Ideas God bless you and your family my friends.
I use a small planner that I can carry with me at all time, Google calendar (on my phone) to work with small planner, and a detailed planner for school and work (that stay in my backpack or at home).
Thank you for the tips on using a Planner I often use my iPhone but after watching your video I'm definitely considering buying a planner. I love how organized you are, I have to start being more organized specially now that I'm starting a business. Looking forward to more videos. I'm interested in learning how you shop for groceries online.
I was anticipating you doing a planner video for the new year, thank you. I've been going back through your prior vids to get ideas of what size, supplies/usage, style etc. to consider. This helps. A novice's question, why are the dividers called dashboards?
Wow, I really like the way you combined work and personal. I have to try that!
Hello Nikki - I'm trying planning for the first time and absolutely LOVE this video. Thanks for the pearls of wisdom regarding not rushing. HNY from a new fan follower!
Nikki, thank you for this video. I'm just looking into planning & enjoyed your tips for getting started. This entire video was extremely helpful & I know I will implement many of your ideas & helpful hints. I just found you & enjoy all of your videos thus far.
This is so crazy. I am new to planning and organizing and was wondering where to start and then you popped up on my feed! Thanks for all you do!
Such fabulous ideas. I especially love the suggestions for other uses for hair pins and greeting cards.
Wow, great video! I wish I would have watched it before I went to Michaels because I got overwhelmed. Almost all the planning things were so cute, and I wanted to buy everything lol. I'm going to use these tips to organize the things I bought. God Bless
I could only hope to be this organized with planning my schedule, lol! Thank you for sharing your planning tools!
Lovely. I love how put together you have everything. I'm new at planning but I do it mainly for decoration but I'm trying to plan also on one of them at least. Love everything you suggested and talked about on this video. Thank u for sharing. I really like the part of the tracking cards.
