Pip Tip Tuesday & GET TO WORK BOOK Giveaway
Planning is like the beautiful child of two long loved crafting traditions: scrapbooking and journaling. It's 2D (puffies unfortunately don't fare well in a planner), and can document the minutia of your life in a way that's satisfying and beautiful. Better yet, it's functional and LOW pressure since there's always a new layout and week ahead of you.
It's a lot more fun to stay on top of your schedule when you can keep it in a beautiful planner, embellish it with stickers, and admire it every time you check in on what's going on.
There is a fine line however between planning and decorating. And, trust me, it's a VERY slippery slope! Hopefully, you have the luxury of spending as much time as you want on your planner set up. If you don't have tons of time however, it's still possible to join the planner craze (and still worth the investment in all those sticker, pen, and washi hauls, haha)! This week's tip...
If you use the color combo inspo I talked about last week, you can have a minimally decorated planner that looks super fresh and inspiring and keeps you on track. And, the beauty of it all is that if time opens up during the week you can add to it!
Be sure to keep the other stickers and stuff that would go well with the layout close by so you can pop them in when you get a free minute or two.

Make the form follow function!If you're busy busy busy, it's crucial that you balance the form and function of your planner so that you can not only have a pretty schedule, but also actually get sh*t done! In order to do this, I start decorating the spreads in my planner with a few "base" layers: washi tape and color blocked stickers to highlight important or recurring things. From there, I write in what's coming. And, sometimes, that's all I get to! This usually takes about 11-20 minutes and voila!
