It cracks me up the amount of people who are 'my way or the highway'. I'm 66. An empty-nester. Will I set up a planner exactly like yours? No. Will I take some of your ideas and tweak them for my planner. Yes. So re-date your pages as much as you like! (Just a note, I'm a Monday start person. But my work week for my part-time job starts on Sunday. So I keep my monthly on Sunday and my weekly on Monday,.)
I am a Team Monday! I wish EC would offer the calendar as a Monday start. I feel like all of her weekly and daily views all start on Monday. I am always have to re date. I like just getting the top washi with the days and dates and it allows for extra decor. :D Thanks for sharing. I am going with the Bold Blooms and I have already re dated my July-Dec.
I am so excited! My EC is coming on Monday and I can’t wait! I also got the compact vertical like you did! I also was using a monthly EC planner. This is the first time I’ve ever used a July start also. Yeah, big changes for me! But, I’m excited!
HancanPlan has a 7x9 cleaning routine for daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual sections with check off columns. The daily and weekly do not have enough check off spaces for the whole year. Anyway, I am planning to put my reasonable ideal cleaning routine on it for reference. I have yet to fill it out. I also have the house project to fill out. Haven’t taken the time to sit down and plan it out. I follow Flylady mostly, I also read Clean mama.
Loved this video! I am in a EC DD for work this year and the EC vertical for personal and home. I’ve set everything up and even decorated for holidays etc Like your formula one - I am a football girl! Chicago Bears all the way. I love to have game days in my planner. Thanks for all the videos
Another great video Kristan! I went with the 7x9 DD in Evolve this year - because I still have my weekly “Kristan” page🤣 I just don’t have to draw it anymore! I ended up recoiling so I could just mice all the blank pages to the back. That’s where I go to find all of my trackers, brain dumps, etc. This video kept me company!
Thank you so much for the shoutout darling! And for your kind words!! You honor meee! 😭Yes, one of the best ways to improve our handwriting is to SLOW DOWN. It's gonna be speed vs. precision for a while but eventually it will stick! This was so thorough - it looks amazing! I'm seriously motivated to get the back of my planner set up now - I can't wait for my order to get here lol! This was so satisfying to watch. ♥
Love 😂 how you handle weird comments :) so true like why would anyone feel that they have a say in your planner lol. I love your channel and your style 🌸
I have the EC vertical planner and I decorate only the monthly page usually for the holidays of that month & I use the weekly vertical with my work schedule on the top, middle box: gym workout, & bottom box social events etc. & bottom I put birthdays holidays
Team Monday start!!! Didn't think to buy the kit sheets so thanks for the tip, been buying the full sheets but I run out of the numbers real quick and it's way more expensive 🤦♀️
I re-date for the Monday start, too. I work M-F so I like to have my two weekend days next to each other. Also, why is the week a Monday start and the month isn't?? It drives me crazy!!
@@BrendaJones492 As long as it's the same. I used to use the Passion Planner and you can pick a Sunday or Monday start and then the months would match the weeks, but there wasn't enough room for my giant handwriting!! 😂
Please consider doing a video on your brainstorm your month card you made from Cultivate What Matters. I’d love to see your thought process on what you included. Thank you!
I am a Monday start now probably since around Jan or Feb of this year. I just moved my Hemlock and Oak bookbound to rings this week and it seems like it'll work for me through December. With my smaller budget, I may go back to diy and use my money for the deco stickers that I love instead.
Thanks for the long videos! Kept me company almost all day 😂 I wish EC would include the ruler/stencil/bookmark with monthly planners-or at least sell it separately!
One of the reasons I left EC several years ago was because I PREFER MONDAY STARTS - I think it’s because our family time is Friday through Sunday night and this keeps it visually together which makes it infinitely better for planning ✅
Kristan - Can you tell me how many pages the standard 18 month ECLP has? (Or if it's on the EC website and you can point me to it, that would be great. For the life of me, I can't find that kind of info on there. :) Thank you!

Having a separate video with your home cleaning schedule planning would be wonderful!
It's on the list ☺️
Love the checkered flags and your F1 stickers/schedule.

Always used the academic year, but first time using a life planner instead of the monthly.
Yay, I hope you're loving your new planner!
The tulip cover is my absolute favorite!!!!! What a great video!!! You have given me some great ideas!!
Yay! Thank you!
Haha love that you hide them!! 😂
100% Team Monday-start!!! My professional life is Monday start. Keeping Sunday-start in personal planners messes with my brain.
I feel the same!

I still haven't made that cleaning page yet 🙈 My routine is a mix of things I learned from Clean Mama and Flylady 😊

Yay, thanks for watching! Our sports obsessions are real, gotta plan for them 😅

I really really really almost bought a DD but figured I can always try it next year. It seems like the perfect solution now!

Great tips! I'm always telling my kid to slow down (his handwriting is ... yikes lol). Sounds like I need to take that advice as well!!

I love how your vertical is set up. Very functional. Thank you for sharing! 💕

I think Passionate Penny Pincher Planner is Sunday start on both the months and weeks!
@@BrendaJones492 I haven't tried PP in a while, but they do sell a little sampler book to try the layouts and paper.

Glad you enjoy them and thank you for watching! Many people agree with you about the stencils.
I love that! Let the haters scream into the void! I wish we could do that with all the internet (and real life) bullies lol. 😂
💜💜
you should cut a piece of card stock for the tab so it will be sturdy and durable . kinda like sandwiched in between .
That is a brilliant suggestion, thank you!
One of the reasons I left EC several years ago was because I PREFER MONDAY STARTS - I think it’s because our family time is Friday through Sunday night and this keeps it visually together which makes it infinitely better for planning ✅
I agree, our family time is the weekend as well! It seems so weird to split it up.
I transfer the 2025 date to the calendar at the beginning or to the month.
I just got my first EC planner ever. I am so excited. QUESTION: can I use my 20% coupon that I got with my order in the physical store?
I think I've seen people do it, but the coupon says only at erincondren.com so I'm going to ask and let you know!
@@KristanKremer thank you!!!! ☺️
@@erinparra3371 Yes, the coupons CAN be used in store 🎉🎉
@@KristanKremer Woop 🙌🏻 Woop 🙌🏻 thank you!
@@erinparra3371 You're welcome!!

Sorry for the late reply! I actually don't know, but I will find out and report back 😊
I"m sorry it took me so long to reply! EC said this: "There are 290 pages in the 18th month planner + 20 tabbed pages." I hope that helps!
Can you tell me what size the Evolve pen is???? Like .50 or .70?
I don't know exactly, but I think it is more like a .5mm directly from EC. I use Pilot V5 RT refills inside it that are .5mm.
I use my back cover for a brain dump.
