Hello everyone! Happy New Year! I hope you all had a great Holiday season! I am back with a AWESOME product line review, and even better a giveaway for a EC $50 gift card!
I had the chance to review the Life Planner from erincondren.com. If you are not familiar with Erin Condren products, head on over to their website and take a look around. They have so many awesome products to choose from!
The fun starts as soon as you arrive at the Erin Condren website to start selecting your products. Since most of their products are custom designed, you know that you are getting exactly what you want! I picked the Life planner, since well my life is crazy and I like to have the visual of a planner in front of me VS always using the calendar on my phone.
Erin Condren offers 45 custom designs for the basic life planner! With that many options, there is for sure something for everyone! I choose to make one this year using pictures from my families fall photo’s and LOVE how it turned out.
One cool thing to know about Erin Condren, is that all their Life Planners are assembled by hand, not by some machine. So you know that your planner will be looked over by someone to make sure that no defects are in any of the pages, and to make sure that it is assembled correctly!
Once the planner arrived, the fun continues! Not only was I anticipating the planner, but all the extras that come with the planner. The planners all come with both pre-printed and blank stickers that you can place within your calendar to mark special occasions, birthdays, anniversaries, parties, doctor appointments, vacations etc. It also comes with some cute gift and personalized sticker tags.
As you flip through the planner, they have placed quotes throughout the planner that are just a simple extra touch to fill otherwise blank pages. The planner starts with a “special dates” quick glance view that is broken down by month. I love this section, as I can list all the birthday’s and anniversaries that I need to send a card for, and with a quick glace every month know who I need to get something to. The next section is a 2013/2014 year view of the calendar. It then goes directly into the month breakdown.
Each month is has a laminated tab for easy flipping / finding when you need it. The tab will take you directly to the month view for that month. It is spread over the 2 pages and offers a nice size space for each day for notes to be written in, as well as a note area on the side of one of the pages. The following pages are a week by week view of the month. Each day has its own column that is also split into 3 parts of your day {morning, day, night} there is also places to make notes about the week. The only think that I found hard to get used to with my EC planner was the fact that in the week view, it starts with Monday and ends with Sunday. After all the months, there is a Notes section that offers both a lined and blank pages. The last section is a contacts section.
The planner also has a double sided pocket in the back for keeping track of any loose pages that you may want in your planner. There is also a clear zippered pouch that is perfect for keeping the gift tags and a few other items in.
Last, on the inside of the back cover is a 2015 / 2016 calendar. I love that they place the following 2 years for a quick look ahead. Sometime you just need to see when a date will fall if you are planning an event / vacation and it is nice to have it right there.
My overall thoughts on the Erin Condren Life Planner is I LOVE IT! It helps keep me so organized, and let me tell you I have a lot to keep straight in order to be organized! Plus the personalized cover makes me smile daily.
