Why I Switched to Bullet Journaling
I made the switch from a filofax ring planner to a bullet journal back in April of this year. I felt that my Filofax, A’s much as I loved it, just wasn’t fitting my life at that moment in time and had become to ridged and inflexible in my life though I still loved writing down my plans and things that mattered. It was hard to properly realise and accept that the system I had been using for years…

Finding Myself Again
Not long after my last post (way back in April) I found myself struggling to get motivated and just generally feeling totally overwhelmed and stressed, nervous and anxious all the time, add that to my insomnia and you have a very wired me that can pretty much do nothing apart from exist – hence the lack of posts (When I get super stressed or anxious I tend to withdraw from everything). I sought…

Aside from my Parker IM Roller Ball and Fountain pens the only real ink pens that I love are Staedtler Triplus Fineliner pens. I forget when I first came across these pens but it was a long time ago, it feels like they have always been in my life and I forget how many different ones I have purchased over time, though I do know that I have gone through 3 of the 10 pack of pens in the time that I have been purchasing them.
So what makes me keep buying them? I love the range of colors for one, there seem to be so many different ink colors and tones to choose from, that you can buy the pens as singles or in larger sets, that the writing line is just 0.3mm – so truly fine, which makes for some pretty creative and tight doodling or really small writing! I love that the pens don’t seem to bleed or fade and I love that they make my writing look a lot neater than other pens! I love how the pen barrel is thin and triangular which can minimize hand fatigue when writing and that the pen is really light and smooth to use. Basically, I think, what I am trying to say is this range are the perfect pen for me!
I use these pens for everything too, from doodling and writing my plans in my Filofax, color coding notes and drawing images to just brightening up a page with a few simple boxes drawn in a bold color, they are the perfect addition to my filofax and bullet journal (more about the latter soon!)!
Here’s my collection at the moment (what I could find of them – my go to ones!)

Plans
Plans is a sub category that I used a lot when I was in college and University, it was similar to a to-do list but more specifically orientated around things I wanted to do rather than things that needed to be done in a certain time frame, for example, things like watch xyz tv show, rent out movie to watch one weekend, visit museum, etc. I started a Plans section so I could group all these…

Month On 2 Pages
Month On 2 Pages
I don’t use Month On 2 Pages (MO2P) inserts anymore, but, when I was in School, College, Uni and working a few different part time jobs I found this kind of insert to be the most useful for planning my time and knowing where I needed to be at a glance. I did have some for one of my planners the other year but aside from setting them up I never really used them so decided not to add them to my…

This Weeks Spread (for week 27th Mar – 2nd Apr)
This weeks spread uses a kit from Filofabulouss that I purchased not long after Christmas! I did look for the same kit to post a link but the one that Sarah now sells is slightly different to the kit I purchased. I added some purple glittery washi to the kit to become my hole re-enforcer strip and also some silver strip tape which I used to cover the printed type on my filofax diary inserts.…

This Weeks Spread (for week 20th – 26th Mar)
This week I have gone for one of my favorite subjects ever – pirates! I bought this kit from The Ginger Cat Co . Here’s my layout… I got recommended The Ginger Cat Co on a facebook group when I was looking for a new shop to buy from. There were so many stickers that I have enough to do a few more layouts later on in the year. I did have to cut down the checklist stickers as they were a bit…

Archiving Layouts - 2
Archiving Layouts – 2
I wrote a post on the 10th March (you can read it here) about archiving my layouts, my initial idea had been to gather all my pages together and keep them safe until the year was over, then put them together and attempt to create a book with them. This all sounded really good in theory but, and its a big BUT at that, I have a really bad tendency to switch my planners about, from pocket to A5,…

This Weeks Spread (for week 13th – 19th Mar)
This weeks spread is inspired by St Patrick’s Day which falls on friday this week. St Patrick is the patron Saint of Ireland. I wanted something that had elements of the Irish in it and chose to purchase this weekly kit from Oodlemadoodles for its use of cute pots of gold, rainbows and four leaf clovers. As always, I am totally in love with the spread and am really enjoying having my planner…

Archiving Layouts
Though I love a stuffed planner my Filofax is starting to get to the stage where it needs to shed some weight soon! This has led me to start thinking about how I can start archiving my pages of layouts that I have created. I was originally thinking about keeping all my pages safe then at the end of the year putting them all together, fixing them to each other and making all the pages into a book…

Ball Point Pens
I make no apologies or secrets of this – I am totally passionate about pens. I own such a vast array of pens that I could open my own pen shop! And I always seem to be on a quest to find the perfect pen to write with, for me there is nothing worse than a pen that gloops, skips, catches, scratches or just stops writing even though there is ink left in it! Today’s post embraces my love of pens…

Lists
Lists seem to be popping up all over the place in my Filofax, from daily lists consisting of household chores, weekly lists of things to remember (like collecting my medicine prescription…), shopping lists that happen mainly on fridays and sundays, books to read, films to watch, tv shows to catch up on, and lists of things to do/not forget that happen sporadically, it seems my life is run by…

There are so many different ways to incorporate a Birthday/Occasions Reminder into your planner the list is almost endless and, even in its most basic form, can be adapted to any planning style or any planner size! This post will help you with setting up a Birthday/Occasions Reminder in several different ways.
The first way is probably the most basic and one I have used previously – the pull out Year Calendar
You can purchase this kind of calendar from Filofax online or some stores that carry the Filofax line of inserts. I really like the ease of use with this style of insert for the purpose of Occasion Reminder, you can see the whole year at a glance and see when certain events fall. The downfall of this for me was that once it was filled in, unless I had something else to add it wasn’t something I was checking on a day to day/week to week basis.
You can use sheets of paper titled with the month, dates listed in a margin and then write in the occasions you want, if you leave the pages without a year on them they can be carried from one year to the next. Month on a page inserts would be perfect for this if you decided that you would rather purchase than make inserts! These could then be placed in its own section in your planner or at the start of each new month in your planner.
I really like the idea of having a monthly overview at the start of the month so you can see in detail what is happening that month and be prepared for the days ahead. I am currently using these dividers in my Filofax to separate out the months and write down all my Occasions on. The dividers are set so that the beginning part of January is on one divider, the second part is on the second divider which has part of February on the reverse, the second part of February has the first part of march on it etc…and it is the only thing I think I would probably change – I’d have half of Jan n the front of the first divider and the remaining part on the reverse etc, so that each month is on one divider rather than 2. But, that aside, this system is working for me so far!
I have seen other monthly view dividers, from gridded layouts (like in the Happy Planner) to laminated designs, if you have a search on instagram (#montlyoverview is a good starting point) you will find lots of inspiration!
What sort of Occasions Reminder will you be using?

Birthday/Occasion Reminder
I love getting new diary inserts and being able to start planning out my year – writing out birthdays, bank holidays, special occasions and other things that happen through the year, however, one of the downfalls that I face sometimes is forgetting the occasion until the week that it falls in. Maybe this is because I use WO2P and only really look at the week I’m in or the next week on, rarely do…
