Hey Guys! In today's video I'm sharing my updated classic happy planner set up. Making some tweaks and sharing some of the new planners that will be added to my planner in January. If you have never setup a frankenplanner before hopefully this video will give you some insight into my thought process.
Received my TOM planner today I’m so excited! I’m trying to find really cute planner covers/binders with storage pockets, any suggestions for the 7x9.25 size? Thanks in advance so happy to find your channel . I may also purchase the happy planner for my day to day planner as well.
Your videos are so soothing, I hope that doesn’t sound strange. Your voice and your nails are beautiful. I have started back using my planner thanks to you and all your wonderful videos.
I did this exact same thing! I got the Teresa Collins planner last month and I changed it to my cover along with the gold expander discs immediately! Too pretty! I’m currently franken-planning 5 planners. I am an organized person. You inspire me so much to stay consistent!
Yay! Thanks for THIS video of deconstructing and reconstructing your planner Alaina! I was looking forward to this vid 🎉 I didn’t know combining the planners made it a frankenplanner but that makes sense 😄
2:02 I love this design. It seems way less stressful to me to have a set of weekly tasks (instead of daily tasks). I'm a fan of neutral, lighter colors as well. It feels much more professional so I can take my planner from home to work easily, as opposed to having super bright colors which seem almost too much for a workday. 14:09 100% agree. "A paper planner is like having a personal assistant." It's a simple item that helps me get things done, track what I'm actually doing, and helps me get the momentum I need to hit my goals! Awesome video!!
I subscribe before I watched a single video just because I’ve recently gotten into researching more about planners and journaling, however I haven’t found many black female content creators in this sector. So after I saw a video of yours pop up in my recommended and saw not only your beautifully styled thumbnails and eye catching titles, but that you were a beautiful dark skinned black woman in this space I just HAD to hit subscribe! I’m glad I did after watching this first video 🥰👏🏾✨
Thank you for sharing!!! I just purchased the same expander pack over the weekend from Michael's to add to my classic. I picked up the homeboy but I put down because I already had my planner and a new was NOT in my budget even though it was on sale and I had a coupon but now I'm like...DANG IT. Thank you so much for giving me an idea about incorporating and adding different ares to my home planner instead of having multiple planners.
I love this! I've ordered both the weekly and daily passion planner but this has me wanting to return them and make my own frankenplanner! Do you still use your passion planner?
Praying for a safe surgery and healthy recovery for your wisdom teeth!! I got dry socket when I got mine taken out in high school. Not fun at all. Be careful the first time you eat/drink
Love your planning videos 💜what size Tul are you using for the classic? I will be setting up mine for 2021! Thanks for all your awesome planning videos and ideas‼️‼️
Thanks so much for sharing Alaina! I like the new planners - especially the gold, black and white layouts :) I was using an EC planner, but I am moving into a Simplified Planner for 2021 - I ordered the TUL notebook cover so I can set up my frakenplannner. Watching your channel has helped me SO MUCH!
Your planners always look nice and functional. I’m trying to put together a planner for 2021. I hope it all comes together. Where did u get the dashboard inserts. The clear ones with the black hearts on them. They are labeled at the top?
Those new daily sheets are everything. I stocked up when they were on sale a few weeks ago. If they would make them in netural that would be all I would buy.
Homebody looks better when you show it. It didn’t look as nice on their site. Now that white one I wanted so bad and couldn’t find it. Now I don’t need it
I am new to the planner world. The terminology is Greek to me... dashboard??? I have no idea what the purpose of a dashboard is! I wish someone would slowly and clearly go over the basics.
@@courtneywitherspoon8584 , I did, but I still didn’t get a full understanding. I’d like to know the pros and cons of the different components. Ex: Vertical and horizontal. Why would you choose one over the other. I know some. is personal preference, but why?
It's really personal preference based on how you process information. Do you like to plan your day hour by hour? Do you prefer more space for writing? Are you focused on tracking your goals? For me, I like a monthly spread followed by a note page and horizontal weekly spread (vertical spread is columns sometimes with hours or sections, horizontal is more block-y and gives me more space to write). The dashboard layout is simply a one page overview for the month: what you want to buy, what needs to get done that month, maybe a summary of meetings or appointments.

I just adore listing to you as you plan your life.
Can I just say I declare myself a fan of your planner, i absolutely love it! Great video!
Thank you so much!! ❤️

My husband bought me that same label maker and I loved him for it 😂 they’re so fun!!!
I have almost the exact label maker! I have the brother P-touch D400. I fell in love with them like 5 years ago :)
Hi! Where is your cover from? I have the classic size and HP and noticed that Tul only has letter size covers. Is it the junior size? Please help.
I enjoyed your enthusiasm about these planners! That just tickled me pink ☺

Agreed about the colors. I wish HP offered more neutral.
I love this! I've ordered both the weekly and daily passion planner but this has me wanting to return them and make my own frankenplanner! Do you still use your passion planner?
I enjoy watching your videos.
This is inspiring me to setup my own frankenplanner.
Thanks 🙏 for sharing ! Going to do my first one for 2021 😀

I am literally using these two exact planners for 2021 😍
Your planners always look nice and functional. I’m trying to put together a planner for 2021. I hope it all comes together. Where did u get the dashboard inserts. The clear ones with the black hearts on them. They are labeled at the top?
You convinced me to use Big Happy Planners!
I love planners❤
Those new daily sheets are everything. I stocked up when they were on sale a few weeks ago. If they would make them in netural that would be all I would buy.
Me too!!
I just ordered the Teresa Collins happy planner ☺️
Loved it!
Martha Stewart has nice disc bound covers also.
Are you gonna update how you use each planner now?
Thank you for this great video. Please tell me the name of the planner company at Office Depot. The link you attached showed a desk.
Office Depot sells TUL products and they are increasing the line with new disc colors, and more variety! I've been a fan of it!!!
I like your business card sleeves. Are they in your Etsy shop?
The white planner is the Teresa Collins collaboration. Her signature colors are white, black, gold and pink.
Homebody looks better when you show it. It didn’t look as nice on their site. Now that white one I wanted so bad and couldn’t find it. Now I don’t need it
Where can i get a happy planner?
From happyplanner.com and Michael's, mainly. HP has some good sales on today.
Yes! Joann’s, Hobby lobby, Michaels or Happy Planner.com
Alaina, I believe you mentioned once where you get the dividers with the tabs at the top. Would you tell us again? Love your planning style.

Do a search for "planner basics." Plenty content out there!

@@kit7647 thank you! I appreciate the insight. Do you have a RUclips channel? If not, you should consider getting one!
Wisdom teeth is the worst, good luck!
