I feel like I’m an outlier in the planner world. I don’t switch sizes at all. I’ve got two Van der Speck A6 TM covers, and I use one for spring/summer (pink), and one for fall/winter (cream). I’ve been using the same setup for 2-3 years, and just bought the same for next year. I did add a tiny tweak on that order, as I got a small weekly chart on the note page that each week of dailies start with (I u se DIYFISH printables). I usually switch out all my dashboards and decor every month, and I match my fountain pen ink with my sticker subscription. For my dashboards and decorations, I use a 6”x6” scrapbooking paper pad, and some diecuts from the same collection. I made 12 sets last year, so this year I have mostly reused my decorations from last year. After all, I haven’t seen them for 12 months, so they are kind of new again! My setup is basically just month on 2 pages for forward planning and daily pages. I also keep some note paper and a few sheets of trackers so that I have one ready if something suddenly changes with my mental health , and I need to keep track of it to talk to doctors/therapists. For the weeks I’m away for the summer, I print weekly pages, as I don’t have as much to do when I’m not at home. Also, it makes my planner less bulky when traveling (I only keep the current month of dailies in my planner).
This is a really useful video as I wasn’t sure how to start with a new set up still toying between a5 and personal ! Personal much more portable a5 much bigger what to do!! Excellent ideas thanks heidi
My pleasure! Glad it helped you - they're both really good sizes - I'm going to be doing an in-depth A5 pros and cons video in the next week or two, so that may be useful for you too :)
Nice to see another video Ellie and so glad you’ll do two more. Almost time to use your sweater dashboards again!
Thank you! I need to start planning that one out - any excuse to plan my planning, LOL!

Ooh that sounds super creative! I wish I could stick to one planner, but I think I need the change to force me to make time for it!
@@sortstuffout The shortest way to planner peace is to have a very tight budget😂
