วีดีโอ

is that Kaweco pen a fine line? do you know how thick?

It looks like you struck the right balance despite moving to a smaller size paper. On vertical spreads, although I like the uniformity of how it looks, the actual writing experience of only being able to write one or two words before having to skip to the next line disrupts my creative flow. Having more horizontal space really helps.

can I ask for the link you purchased?

I have to admit that your title alone got me to click!

I can’t wait ‘til you try pocket… 😉

I like it but for me the rings r to small

Translucent matte sticker paper?! 😍 So many great ideas here. TFS!

I love your mini and it never ceases to amaze me. I have a Mini on the way and will set it up. I'm a personal girl, but a mini would be perfect for my handbag. Thanks for your videos

your jellyfish charm is sooo cute. i’m glad you were able to work out the vertical for yourself in mini 5! mini 5 is so stinkin cute but i found i needed more room for my health planner so i’m in pocket

I am decidedly *not* a mini5 person, myself. But what I find great about the way you share your planners, Simone, is that no matter what you’re using it’s full of creative ideas that I find inspirational and practical. I also ❤ hourly planning, and adding in some horizontal micro journaling sounds like a fun thing to try!

I totally agree - if it's digital, it's basically invisible!

I have a dual ring system from Zack’s Leather on Etsy (A6/personal size). I love it. I use the left side for my calendar/weeklies and some projects. On the right side I keep my to do lists and notes. He customized it with 20mm rings on each side. Highly recommend it!

I'm new to ring planning this year and love to see how everyone utilizes their rings. I have been stumped about how to archive my inserts, and using loose binder rings is such an amazing idea! I have so many floating around - I won't need to buy any! Thank you for the ideas and lovely videos!

the pilot birdy would be a great choice as a pen body for this planner. love those kaweco pens... the green body is my fav color

Could you share where/how you got this planner?

Mind blown! 2 sets of rings? Sorcery!!! Can’t wait to see how it works! ❤❤❤

I love these types of double rings set up I have a mini set up with these from a seller off etsy minus the card inserts. The first time I saw this done was years ago on a regular size 3 ring binder

what a find! it looks lovely. i have never been in this small size but i always like seeing how you work it

Wow very cool! I definitely think it can be very functional if you often flip back and forth writing things, as you noted the reference can be in the left and writing in the center!

Love this idea. I done need my trackers with me at thr office 3x a week but having an option for one book that truly allows me to have both life and work and keep them separate is a great idea. I wish this was in pocket size!

such an interesting design! thanks for sharing your setup in it! very cool :)

wow! how cool!!

BABE WAKE UP! SIMONE POSTED A NEW RINGS VIDEO!!!!

I'm not sure of it's functionality or purpose but I think your set up with the reference side and the daily side makes so much sense. This is kind of based on a 1921 design of the pre-cursor to Filofax and was carried by Grace Scurr, who started at Norman and Hill (now Filofax) as a temporary secretary. When the company’s offices were blitzed during the war, it was Grace’s diary, in which she had recorded customers and suppliers, that literally saved the firm. And it was Grace (who went on to become Chairwoman, retiring in 1955) who coined the name Filofax - “a file of facts”. The duplex rings were popular in the mid-30s with the military and with doctors. The designs back then were personal rings. This is the first pocket style I've seen.

What an amazing concept!! This could change the whole planner world!

Aw.. You and my mom share the same birthday!!❤

can you do a comparison of the Filofax sizes/options? I want to start in one, but not sure which I’d like.

your flipthrough was soooo satisfying! best of luck with the startup!

Such a nice video

I've been searching for an archive binder solution forever, I can't wait to see what you make!!!

Not having found a good method of archiving my pages is what keeps pulling me out of rings! I absolutely love your voice. It’s so calming. I watched this on a day where my anxiety was acting up, and it helped me so much.

I can definitely see how the 2 rings are not so great for the smaller stuff like the polaroids. I would love to see a video on how you make those dividers on vellum with lamination! I would make so many 😂 And thank you for sharing!

submited! very excited for this. archiving its definitely the thing that keeps me away from truly enjoying rings

it would be nice to get these archive binders delivered to europe, without having to pay with a kidney to other resellers. the franklin covey costs almost 100 Euros on amazon, which is litteral theft.

Thank you! Yes, we need something better! Someone needs to do it lol

hey the algorithm just showed me your channel! I am one of the people who wants the archive binder! I just started with ring planner and I keep wondering why the archive step isn't discussed more! That's what stopped me from getting a. plotter which only holds 40 pages.

Loved this flipthrough! I was wondering, how do you make your theme dividers? Perhaps you could make a video on that? :3 👀

YES PLEASE!!!’ I’m doing the survey now! ❤ THANK YOU! Someone needs to do it. If you do it, I’ll be loyal FOREVER.

Submitted my survey - I do love a bit of quantitative research. Thank you for doing this. BB 🌛🌝🌜

I got no further than 28 seconds in - the point at which you mention creating planner archives - and immediately hit Like and subscribe. I’ll watch the rest and will do the survey next. So excited! I just ordered some cheapo binders this morning to use for archiving, but they are less than ideal. Can’t wait to see what you come up with. ❤

Hey Simone, I have a question, and apologies if you’ve explained this in a previous vid, but I wondered if you bought your themed dividers or if you created them yourself, and if you did, could you share how you do this? Thank you and BB 🌛🌝🌜

The cat ears poking out are such a cute idea 😻

links please!!!

New here but I love your style and chill vibes so much! I'd love to learn how you make your dividers and inserts because they're fantastic! Maybe also a detail video on all your gear and supplies? And how do you come up with your weekly review prompts? I'm interested to try that out and the mood tracker for sure. Thanks for making videos!!!

Hello! I love this video sooooo much! I'm a personal-size kind of person, and I use Plotter's weekly insert, mainly because I write a lot and I often have to refer to things noted weeks or months ago (I have an office job, and sometimes some people are not as orderly with their notes, and so you have to check your own), but looking at your mini planner, it makes me want to have one just like that. :)

I have a question. When you use the Tome river paper do you slit the holes or is it to thin 🤔

❤ i love your videos - so inspiring! I always change something up after watching them. Last time i deep-dived mini pens and now have gel D1s in my Filofax barleys. Now i am debating between stickers or stamps for my daily pages dates. Arghhh! I have 2 Minis, 1 Personal and a silly amount of Pockets. (All vintage and bought cheap whenever they cross my path). I am a little brutal with the archiving - i transfer all the important information onto Personal size notepaper with the year at the top and they are all filed under Y for 'yearlies' in my Holborn. That way i can flip back quickly for holiday, appointment and any other important dates. Love your style - keep treating us to your flip throughs.

Hey Simone, Absolutely no complaints from me, just keep on doing what you're doing delivering your flip-throughs and thoughts long form. For me as a planner-ista, I love seeing how everyone else uses their planners and the level of creativity that it is out there - it's really inspiring for me as it's a configuration of my Self that has been sadly dormant for a long time. Plus as a solitary witch in her crone phase, I love connecting with other witches. BB and I hope you have a magical Samhain 🌛🌝🌜

Good morning, having my morning coffee watching your video. It makes me smile. I love the fact you used your cat pickles as spot holder. I love the scary inserts. I like the fact you don’t push buying things. You mentioned making a binder for your minis that would be interesting to see or you never know you could develop something that you could sell. Anyway thanks for sharing and have a great day.

really enjoyable :-) i don't mind a bit of repetition, as you call it. my videos often are kind of similar in this respect but i see it more as catching up with someone, how are they getting on with how they've set up their planner/pages etc
