I worry the paper may feel thin to me or something, compared to my traditional binders...gah. i dunno. we'll see, i guess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952905 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 15:05:46 +0000 photojane 1952905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: Then I say, go for it! I like the design, and the meal planning insert is awesome. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952896 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 15:03:48 +0000 blackbird 1952896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@avivoca: YES i don't like the narrow columns!!!! </p> <p>@photojane: I agree, all the rectangles were chaotic on the Plum Paper designs. At least for me. I've looked around but this time of year, everybody's kind of sold out. And honestly, I could print it at work and drop it off at the UPS store right on the way home, so it would not be inconvenient for me at all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952825 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 14:46:46 +0000 photojane 1952825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: ahh... got it. Plum Paper does have an option that is just lines, but they're columns instead of rectangles. I was specifically looking for one that was NOT rectangles. Too chaotic for me. :silly: </p> <p>The rectangle kind is pretty common in store-bought planners. That's basically all I saw when I was looking around. Have you looked around at all? I do like the one you found, but I am too lazy to go get it printed and bound. Ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952813 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 14:43:47 +0000 avivoca 1952813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: I'm like you, I hate having times and the morning/afternoon breakout on my planner. My only problem with my current one is that the weekly pages are in narrow columns, which I didn't realize I was against. But I love the overall design, so I'll stick with it at least for the rest of the year.</p> <p>I would love to have a Filofax eventually. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952806 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 14:41:55 +0000 blackbird 1952806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jetsa: That one's close but i don't like the morning and afternoon break outs. I make my daily lists as a "to do" list. I know i'm really nitpicky but i'm really particular about my calendar :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952801 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 14:41:12 +0000 blackbird 1952801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like this </p> [attach=618/14/nfcs0p.600x450.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952796 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 14:40:31 +0000 blackbird 1952796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: The kind where it just lists the day and i can write all my crap in.

We only have 1 color printer here so I'd have to print at home but still way cheaper than a name brand one and cuter than the black one I've been using. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952625 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 13:54:14 +0000 blackbird 1952625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jetsa: whaaaaat jealous.

I think with the cost of the document, personalized cover, printing/binding, and shipping, it was around $50. I'm really happy with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952619 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 13:53:05 +0000 jetsa 1952619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for this thread, I just realized I could easily make one at work duh. We have a spiral machine for spec books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952606 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 13:48:40 +0000 photojane 1952606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never DIY'd one, but I just bought a planner from Plum Paper Designs on Etsy, and I LOVE it. It rivals (I think it's better) Erin Condren, and it's cheaper. You can customize it however you like, and can add extra pages for different needs. I have a 10% off code I found on some random blog if you're interested. </p> <p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/PlumPaperDesigns" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/shop/PlumPaperDesigns</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-planners-printing-your-own#post-1952587 Thu, 20 Nov 2014 13:41:45 +0000 blackbird 1952587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a hard time finding the weekly/monthly planner spread i want (plus i love this meal planning insert!) </p> <p>I'm thinking about this:<br /> <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/186612324/2015-daily-planner-half-size-life?ref=sr_gallery_10&#038;ga_search_query=half+size+weekly+planner+monthly&#038;ga_search_type=all&#038;ga_view_type=gallery" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/listing/186612324/2015-daily-planner-half-size-life?ref=sr_gallery_10&#038;ga_search_query=half+size+weekly+planner+monthly&#038;ga_search_type=all&#038;ga_view_type=gallery</a></p> <p>But then I have to print it myself (no biggie) and then take it to the UPS store to have it spiral bound and whatnot. </p> <p>Has anybody done this with a planner or something similar?
