@@JesseJamesSalonBoutiqueLLC2016 I only did transformer for a short while back in 2019, but I am still frankplanning. 5 planners into one. It's the only way that works for me...to have everything in one "home base".
After watching you and Marquita set up the frankenplanner, I started thinking I needed to try it. I just now set up my first Frankenplanner, and I am surprised at how excited I am. This is why I kept trying bullet journaling but it kept failing. The frankenplanner is perfect since it's everything all together but still compartmentalized. Thanks for sharing!
I've been watching your videos non stop so ive seen all the new ones and now watching the older ones and its so cute t hear you call it an "itsy" shop 😂 you made my day!
@@squairdplans I mean honestly I think they missed the mark when calling it Etsy! It should absolutely be Itsy!!! Seriously though, thank you for showing your videos because I am so OCD and type A that I have to have my planner set up the same way you do so I was having such a time finding someone I really related to and I'm just thankful for your guidance as I try to get my life in order lol
I was going to keep all separate planners for 2020. At the last minute I decided to FRANKENPLAN. So far I'm glad I did. I enjoyed your video. I like dividers also. I need to label mine. You surprised me by stating you aren't a vertical kind of planner. I watched all your videos on various ways to plan using different layouts. I recommend you to new planners who say they are struggling. Those videos really helped me. I'm looking forward to seeing how you use the Faith planner. I'm using one for the first time. Thanks for sharing your talents. 😊💕
Glad you are tryin frankenplanning! I really love it! As for vertical planning, I can decorate the spread just fine, it’s the using it part that never feels right. No lines, tall boxes, predefined spaces...just not my thing. Horizontal is much more “me” 😁👍🏼
Just want to thank you. I combined my HP monthly planner with a HP Journaling planner. It worked out so well and I never would have thought of that. I kept 3 months and used the dividers in the back one for projects and one for budget. I stored the rest on the other disc. It's awesome. Thanks for the ideas.
I love it! Your channel is solid gold and I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m a horizontal planner and not at all a vertical 😩 but I live in Sweden so it’s not all easy to by hp planners.. I made my own classic skinny and created a horizontal layout and I love it! Keep up the good work 😍❤️
Wow, my head started spinning a little past the halfway point in the video!😳😉 This is my first year with a planner and I'm just using one mini! LOL I knew that if I started with too much I'd get overwhelmed and throw in the towel. Baby steps.👣 It's fascinating to see how the Pro Planner Babes do things.👍🏻
Yeah, it can be a bit overwhelming but I started small like you and have built up to this setup. I never would have though I needed this many planners but apparently I do. 😜📒💕
I really liked this setup and how you were detailed with your decisions. I have mine setup with 3 planners so far. Marking the monthly & weekly with dashboards is a good idea. Thanks for sharing!
Every time I see your cover for your daily planner, I see the letter e instead of an ampersand and wish I had bought that notebook. It looks like a monogram to me. They should offer lettered covers on their website. I bet they'd sell. Also, I love it every time I hear you say "live together in happy harmony." It never fails to make me smile. It's so poetic. :-)
I've been meaning to pick up a laminator...great way to use one. 👍 How did you punch the disc holes? I really want to use my happy planner punch but it can't handle more than 2 sheets of paper at a time, let alone plastic. 😒
Actually, I use the happy planner punch for my laminated sheet. The key word is to have just one sheet. I tried double & that's pushing it. I put the laminated sheet in, aligned it where I wanted & then took it to the carpet & put used my foot in the middle section to hole punch. I know it sounds scary but it's worked every time & it's clean through & through.
I can't get with a vertical layout for my planning, so I decided to use it for my expense planner and the vertical works great to write down the daily expenses!
I’m interested to see which ones you’ll keep using. I’ve paired mine down to one mini horizontal 😁 and I’m enjoying it. I’ve ordered a skinny mini to see if I like it for daily inspirational quotes. I’m constantly fighting the urge to buy more planners just bc they’re cute. Love your goals section!
Yeah, I'm interested in seeing which ones I actually keep too! 😆 Already overwhelmed a bit having fun trying the new layouts. I wish I could pair down to a single planner but I got too much going on at the moment. 🤷🏽♀️
I plan on frankenplanning my Happy Planners today😊. I know late to the game, but hoping it will streamline my am chores 😁! Thank you for sharing your tips and I hope that it helps you too💗🤗!
@@squairdplans dainty details lol...we are using it 2 different things. But you did gave me an idea. I dont like the monthly calendar pages. I was going to glue them together but I will either use it for bible verses or daily gratitude
I like the size of MAMBI pages, but not the proprietary size (Ka-Ching). And the covers are so LOUD! They often scream mottos that seem to be someone else's voice, not mine. At one time, I tried some refill packs to incorporate into my Circa and Tul binders, to see if the pages were a life-fit for me (not so much), if not a proper fit for my covers. And I got tired of them not fitting into the covers. So when I saw MAMBI Happy Notes Planners on deep discount, I thought I would try them out. Even though the covers were so LOUD! Then I discovered that the insides of the covers were calmer and less obtrusive - I quite like them! Even the tiny purse-size version I purchased a long time ago had and amazing neutral interior cover, and now looks so pretty with my grey fabric Martha Stewart disc binder, to which I added the smoky platinum aluminum discs (Tul). I put the 4 remaining discs of that set onto this (now) lovely cover of hand-painted-looking dot grid cover, and they two binders look beautifully coordinated. So for people who like the size, but not the covers - look inside!
LOVE This video. This is my first year to Frankenplan and as time goes by...more planners each year so I am up to several myself, plus a guided journal and all the other fun stuff I like to keep handy. This is so helpful. I have watched twice and am setting up as I watch. I have more I have to buy..of course...lol. I need more Dashboards so the tabs line up correctly and some pen loops and pocket pages but then I think I will have a great set up. I think without this help I would have just stared at my planner in dismay trying to figure it out...lol. (God is working with me on diligence).
This might actually work with my brain! I have been debating on what to do I was planning for about a year now. I toggle between printed, digital, and bullet journaling. I have in my head how everything needs to be laid out but I can’t find a physical copy of it! I was attracted to the digital journal because of all the sectioning available Along with the infinite number of pages you can fit. The problem is, I like the art of writing with a pen.
I hated not being able to move things forward from one planner to the next when I used a coil planner. So helpful to keep everything together in one place and be able to move things around as needed! It is my planner peace. 😁💕
Megan Morris I bought mine mostly at Joann and Michaels over the last 2 years but I have links to them in the video description if you want to shop online. Also, I made some if you want to DIY your own. Here’s the video link: th-cam.com/video/JEpYPcuTyAo/w-d-xo.html
Loved the video. Will have to try this. Question regarding the health section, will you have the meal planner pages or just write in the meal on the weekly section. Also where would you put future appts ? Thanks for the great ideas.
I will write in my food on the weekly spreads, in the biggest section. And I use the perpetual calendar in the front of the planners to keep track of any events outside on the month I’m in. As I decorate each month, I will reference it and transfer to the monthly...and then the weekly spread. Hope that makes sense.
I am using the same cover as you for my faith planning but I use a horizontal layout to do my journaling about what I'm reading and use the monthly to write out verse of the day. I also have the Homebody planner as my main planner to write everything in. Did you say you have videos of your faith planning? If so I will have to look them up. I like the way you did your morning routine sheet. Very creative!
Hi, so I got the pencil pouch a while back at Joann. It was in there store brand seasonal stuff and I haven’t seen in store for over a year. Not sure if they are available online but it will definitely take a bit of hunting to find.
I’m new to the planning community. Did you make the habit tracker page you showed at ~19m or is it something I can purchase? Do you have a video on that?
Frankenplanning is when you combine multiple planners or layouts into one planner. I break it down in this video if you are looking for more detail: th-cam.com/video/sScPlDwhvKA/w-d-xo.html
They are called “dashboards” though I can think of 3 other things called dashboards in the planner community, so 🤷🏽♀️😂. Anyway, they are all from the happy planner. I should links to a few sets in the video description if you want a closer look. 😁👍🏼
I do love me some organization, especially on paper, so it’s not that bad. The thing throwing me is the vertical layout, but hoping to get it together this month. 😉
Squaird Plans ... I decided to try some different layouts this year just to see if I truly am a horizontal planner or if there’s some thing I like better… So I’m going to once a month do something different
So, now that you've had this monster of a Franken planner for six months, how is it working for you? Just curious. I found myself derailed by the pandemic, so my planner has become more of a journal. Planning on adding more sections next year though. I think I found my hobby.
I have been using it pretty much as intended except for the planner babe weekly layouts. I abandoned those around March. I will probably discuss more in planner flipthrough or setup video next week so stay tuned! 😁👍🏼
Mostly from my local craft stores and my Etsy shop, squairdplans.etsy.com, but here are a few online stores that carry Happy Planner products: The Happy Planner :: bit.ly/squaird_happyplanner Amazon :: www.amazon.com/shop/squairdplans Michaels Stores :: bit.ly/squaird_michaels
I think 3 planners was just right, 4 doable, 5 maybe too much. Still figuring out what I need and what I don't. Enjoying figuring things out though. How many planners do you use and for what?

In the vertical layout, you track your expenses, income per day and use the third vertical as notes of improvement. I am loving your setup.
Wow! Awesome suggestion! 👍🏼Thanks so much! Off to hunt for some business tracking examples to help me get started! 🤗💕💕💕
