Planners and Planner Inserts for 2015

Today I'm bringing the community 'big guns' together to share with you what they all have to offer for the New Year. Unusually for Philofaxy we are going to feature non-ring bound solutions as well as ring bound. I realise some of us (myself included) use both formats. 

We lead off with Laurie 

Plannerisms - Laurie

After many years of trying and reviewing hundreds of planners on her blog Plannerisms.com, Laurie never found the planner she was looking for so she created it!

The Plannerisms planner is designed to help you incorporate your goals into your daily schedule. Its flexible format can be used any way you like. Monthly pages, weekly pages and goals pages throughout the book allow you to track your goals quickly and easily.

See the big picture on the monthly pages, and plan the details on the weekly pages. Write your daily intentions and check them off without rewriting them each day.

The Plannerisms planner lets you focus on what’s important in YOUR life, and helps you get where you want to go in life and in the world. The Plannerisms Going Places planner is available on the Collins UK website for worldwide shipping.

He specialises in clean and uncluttered layouts like this, his new Daily Dashboard 2 pages per day layout:

Life is Crafted - Arienne Gorlach

The Life is Crafted planner range was born from the vision of infusing life’s big picture, inspiration and soul-driven actions into the everyday. Arienne Gorlach, creator and life coach,  believes that what  you schedule becomes your life, so choosing well and crafting your days with intention is vital to leading the existence and successes you truly want.

My Last Eureka - Diana

The blog www.mylasteureka.com was born in 2014 after a time e task management workshop that Diana followed at the University of Münster. Diana likes to play with time management systems and come up with some small ‘eureka’ moments that she distributes as freebies on her site. A small shop is connected to the site and gives the followers the possibility to purchase the printed inserts. In the picture you can see the first template draw by Diana. The Daydex.

The Daydex is a handy customizable powerful time management system available in different templates for Filofax, Midori and Moleskine planners. Check her site for details.

Lime Tree Fruits - Raine

LimeTreeFruits Planners was created to bring back the FUN in organizing and planning your days. A while back Raine {the creator} was minding her own business, trying to get thru her first semester of an MBA program while maintaining sanity through the transition into a new job. The ducks weren’t really in a row so she decided to research a game plan for the new semester and the new year approaching. Her reliable friend “google” pointed her to an intriguing and appealing little tool: A good ol’ Filofax. Soon it became way more than “just” a planner. It turned into a real tool to unleash her creativity. 

Tired of the endless search of fun and exciting planner pages she decided to unpack her brushes and create those missing pages herself. And that is how LimeTreeFruits Planners were born. It started with one single design of a monthly planner and over the years developed into a full package of 150+ illustrated pages to make life organized and manageable while having FUN along the way.

Whether you are using them to help you be on top of tasks at home or at work, LimeTreeFruits Planners are sure to bring you a smile {and some giggles!} as you go through each colorful month {and weeks, and days, and all sorts of extra fun pages! :) }

You can find more about those juicy smile-inducive planners at www.limetreefruits.com/planners-2015

I know there are plenty of others out there. So a quick mention here for some we are familiar with. 

• Pembroke Papers - www.pembrokepapers.com
• Piaric - www.piaric.com 
• Qimmis - qimmis.com

There is also of course Philofaxy, as you know Ray and I share in the development and creation of a large range of inserts. You will find them on the Diary Inserts page. 

We have also created a wide variety of files for other non-diary inserts. Please take a look on our Files page and there might be something you can download and adapt to your needs.

Thank you for all of the contributions from our fellow planner and insert creators.
