Day Planners


I am a planner
I (like most people) have a busy life, and I love to stay organized.
And so I created some day planners. 



These planners are soft covered books 
that I made with layers of fabric, paper, glue, etc, 
and 2 were decorated with tea bags and my hand carved stamps 
There final coat is a layer of wax that makes them feel so lovely to hold. 

When closed they can be secured with an elastic,
 that also holds a pen in place along the edge of the pages.








When opened there is a pocket page, that I have placed a 2015 calendar inside
but really it can hold whatever is needed.


The pages have the months and dates written on but not the days of the week.
In this way the books can be used for this upcoming year or a future one. 
The user can always write the days of the week in, if they desire. 


At the back of the book there is another pocket for tucking bits and pieces .



This one was made with fabric on the outside (versus tea bags as the other two were)
and decorated with a leaf stamp and some of my sketches. 


But inside, the pocket and the pages are the same.

I am hoping to add a couple of these to my Etsy shop in the next day or two.

(as well as offer 15% off everything in the store, and raise some funds for some bikes)
