Sharing my full process for this entry using #if_unyieldinghope over on my YouTube channel today...ā  It is a little over a week until my husband's birthday, so I am trying to wrap my brain around what I need to get done to prepare!

It's a million degrees outside, but I am already dreaming of Christmas! Anybody else?!?! One of my favorite planner accessories is all the beautiful disc choices that are out there!

I am sharing several tips for storing planner supplies over on my YouTube channel today. Go check it out, and leave me a comment with one of your tips!ā  Having the months of the year on stickers makes it so easy to date undated planners or re-date planners you may have found on clearance! I use them for these month at a glance pages to track and plan all kinds of things from meals and exercise to social media. You are going to LOVE this beautiful collaboration between @rongrong_devoe_illustration and @jojosprettypapershop - seriously, don't miss out!
