2016 gift guide: the planner

planner

hi hi hi!  it's gift guide week!  i know we're in the second full week of december, so i tried to keep my gift guides primarily exclusive to amazon, more specifically i tried to find “prime eligible” options for these things.  prime is a BEAUTIFUL thing guys.  but also – it would be a GREAT gift to a person who doesn't have prime… just a thought!  also if you use this link to give the gift of prime – they give you an option of 3 months for $33 or a full year for $90!

okay.  todayyyy we're talking about gifts for “the planner.”  this is your friend who loveeeessss organization.  also it's really tailored to starting a bullet journal – it's sort of a “starter kit” if you will. i've gone through SO many different supplies since initially starting mine and now i have a set of stuff that is my “go-to.” (also, for those of you who aren't sure if the person would even like bullet journaling, i would have loved ANY of these things individually when i was using either the erin condren or the day designer planners.)  I'm exclusively planning through my bullet journal and really loving the concept.  eventually i'll get to putting together a post about how i use mine.  but if you're looking for inspiration – i learned the basics of what it is from kristen's post.  ANYWAY.  pens, paints, and notebooks, OH MY.  let's go!
