Five Ways to Pimp Your Planner

By Novelicious

If our round up of adorable organisers
inspired you to ditch your electronic diary in favour of a paper one,
then this list is for you. The beauty of a paper organiser lies in
its scope for customisation and the stationery-purchasing
opportunities it provides. With washi tape, patterned paper,
stickers, and coloured pens, you can turn a plain old Filofax
from a business staple into a work of art.



Midori Paper Bird Index Clips
1. Index clips are a brilliant way to
add section tabs along the top of your organiser pages. They also
make excellent bookmarks for your diary. These penguin clips
by Japanese designer Midori have the added bonus of ‘cute’. You get eighteen clips in the set, three each of yellow, grey and white. £8.50 from The Journal Shop. 


Floral dividers
2. These floral dividers are handmade in the
UK from pretty card stock, and will provide instant colour and
interest to the inside of your organiser. CharlottesWeb86 on Etsy
sells a wide variety of patterns and sizes, so you're sure to find something to suit your style. The 'English Garden' set of six
A5 dividers is £10.


Rainbow Planner
3. If Filofax diary pages are a bit
bland for your taste, but you don't want to spend hours with washi
tape and stickers to brighten them up, how about purchasing the
rainbow planner printable inserts from A Bowl Full Of Lemons? These are colourful and well designed, and there are co-ordinating extras such as 'to do' lists and menu-planners available, too. The basic kit includes monthly planner, weekly diary, cover and notes and costs around £9. 


Appointment Stickers
4. As long as they're small enough, you
can use any stickers you like to make your planner and diary pages
more attractive and to highlight important dates. However, these
appointment stickers from Paperchase provide handy labels such as
'birthday' and 'deadline'. The stickers cost £2.25 for a pack of two sheets.    


Filofax Assorted Sticky Notes
5. Sticky notes are useful for adding extra space to diary pages and for making temporary notes. This set can be handily clipped into your organiser like an extra page, and it includes different different sizes and colours. £4.50 from Filofax.
