I have lots of paper crafting things that I could use. Even with those, I've simplified quite a bit. Sometimes less is more. :)Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12192064538924964308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-2626006671770190492015-11-18T15:41:08.839-06:002015-11-18T15:41:08.839-06:00Thanks for all the tips!

I don't think I have used any sort of planner since high school. I hope it'll help me be more productive. I'm glad I don't have to spend a bunch of money on accessories for it.GraceYveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06899186077683057512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-42125982900225773182015-11-18T11:15:03.125-06:002015-11-18T11:15:03.125-06:00I love making my own notepads and pages. i defini...I love making my own notepads and pages. i definitely have the material around the house.Jaime Barfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00972868515863957645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-33942188759418711482015-11-17T21:56:25.539-06:002015-11-17T21:56:25.539-06:00I just made the most wonderfully awesometastic dis...I just made the most wonderfully awesometastic discovery on the topic of inexpensive planner supplies, and I'm just a little excited to share. Most of those cute post-it's, tape flags, page markers, etc. that are sold on some websites for $3-$7ish (plus shipping) can be found on eBay for literally under 50 cents, with free shipping! They come straight from China, so it takes a couple weeks to get some of the stuff, but when it's that cheap, it's sooo worth the wait. And, I've seen tons of cute washi for under $1, also with free shipping. After this discovery, I may have gone on a huge shopping spree, but didn't spend more than $20, and received well over 25 packs of cute supplies. If you're looking on eBay, just try these searches - sticky notes, tape flags, post-it notes, etc. happy shopping!<br /><br />P.S. Good work, Giftie, and thanks for all the info you share in your blog. Your blog has helped and entertained me so much, and is one of my absolute favorites.Just Ginniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12535259506874709000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-87464435810123217712015-11-17T18:58:36.571-06:002015-11-17T18:58:36.571-06:00My planner setup is a three ring binder, pen, penc...My planner setup is a three ring binder, pen, pencil, lined and graph paper and a hole punch.

I plan my upcoming week and once done,if there is time I will decorate the prior week. I don't decorate the current week because things pop up during the week and I won't have room to write them in. I also find it distracting.wrinkleranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12130799218649501647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-84233819788987111002015-11-16T23:58:24.244-06:002015-11-16T23:58:24.244-06:00Thank you for that post.

I started to fall into the "stuff" groove also but finally wised up and saw that I did not use all the "stuff" that I had (wanted) to have. When I used those decorations it did not leave enough room for me to write in the spaces! So I just mark special dates like birthdays and anniversaries with special stamps and write appointments in now.<br />Works much better for me. Thank you again.❤️Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15778742969241818682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-1807090645125253602015-11-16T10:17:19.524-06:002015-11-16T10:17:19.524-06:00I like my (small) Post-It note collection and my d...I like my (small) Post-It note collection and my different clips, but when I take my planner with me, all I <i>really</i> need is my planner and a pen.

When I wrote my Planner Peer Pressure post, I confessed that I fell into the same trap of needing all the 'pretty' (washi, stickers, paperclips with all kinds of stuff hanging off them). That stuff wasn't going to help me 'plan', but rather would suck up my time decorating. I destashed all that stuff (okay, fine, I did keep 3....okay, okay....4 rolls of washi) Stickers take up too much room on my pages, but, since you brought up the Jedi, I succumbed to these puffy SW stickers that I did attack to paperclips for markers. HAD to have these!<br /><br />I read an interesting blog post over the weekend about how the planner community has morphed with the crafting community, which explains why a lot of individuals are combining the two in order to satisfy their need to plan and decorate. If that's what enables you to open your planner and get things done, then do whatever works. My focus is fragile as it is (lol) so the less page chotchke the better for me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-60568034558283281512015-11-16T07:23:59.081-06:002015-11-16T07:23:59.081-06:00Like Gertrude, my planner is a coping mechanism.

Aside from my 6 and 7 hole punches ($2 thrift store finds,) most of my pretties come from the Dollar Tree, 99 Cent store, or Target $1 Spot, gotta have a repositioned glue stick these. And, because I use a vertical layout, there's not that much space anyway.<br />Carla https://www.blogger.com/profile/06072064131320398306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-44344214331613278172015-11-16T06:40:28.890-06:002015-11-16T06:40:28.890-06:00Don't worry, I still love you, even without th...Don't worry, I still love you, even without the Jedi trick (too far away for that) ;-) In fact, I wrote something similarly unpopular at the end of my blogpost today (but I only realized that after reading your post)... <br />I love looking at planner accessories and stationary, but I hardly ever buy any. Planning is not a hobby to me, it's a way to cope. If I'd be able to spend so much money, there are other things I'd buy. Geertrudehttp://motuwethu.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
