DIY Hourly in Your Happy Planner or Erin Condren
Today I bring you a different kind of Plan With Me. Originally I thought I'd just show you how I use various PopFizzPaper standard rainbow stickers to pull together a planner spread when I don't have a kit, but as I sat down a different Idea came to me. What if I some how turned my Happy Planner into an hourly layout. Could it work? I decided I would try!
First I pulled together all Rainbow colourway stickers I had ( I swear I have others but I have no idea where they have wandered off to) and got to work. The first thing I did was cover up the notes sidebar. I usually use the bottom stickers from our kit to do this but instead used a cool rainbow washi I have. I carefully matched up the lines as best I could and worried about the rest for later.
Next was to set up the top header section. These new rainbow glitter header strips were just the thing I needed. I thought long and hard about what I would do, and settled on a colour a day. everyday except Saturday and Sunday got a glitter header. I used one of our weekend banners which also come in the rainbow colourway to mark off Saturday and Sunday. Next were the individual days.
This is where I started to regret this "brilliant" idea I had. First thing I realised was that I didn't have enough headers in each colour for the times I needed. Luckily the sheet of pastel headers stepped up to bat and saved the day. So I alternated the rainbow colour for the day with the pastel version. This worked for everyday except Tuesday which was orange cause we don't have a pastel orange header so I used pink again for that day. Each day took a total of 14 headers. I finished off with another glitter header to leave space for not timed items like bills and chores.
With all the stickers laid down, I put times down and stuck my very old work schedule header stickers over the time space in which I start. With that done I started putting down bill due stickers, and used rainbow puppy paws with skinny appointment labels for my dog's food. I love these rainbow TV trackers too which remind me I need to watch the new episodes of shows. The great thing about each day being a colour was that I ran out of space on Thursday so I could put them under Friday and know they belong to Thursday.
Last I had this full checkbox sitting around from a previous kit so I chucked that and a few adult rewards stickers in the sidebar for a bit of fun. I might fill the sidebar with rewards this week. I'm pretty satisfied with how it all came out. I'm not sure I will ever do it again but it was a neat idea.
I hope this was useful to someone and if you decide to do this for yourself tell me how it works out on Instagram @brooklynne_michelle or @popfizzpaper. You can also share your layouts at the PopFizzPaper Facebook group.
