Last week, I gave you a look into the first two weeks of planning in my Erin Condren for the first two weeks of July. I will link that post at the end of the post. Today's post, I will show you my weekly layout for the week of July 13th. Also I will show you how last week's looked like after the week was over.
Here is last week's layout.
As you can see, the later half of the week is fuller than the first of the week. This is because I typically do all of my stuff on the later of the week cause I have Thursdays and Sundays off. The first part of the week, I am usually busy with work stuff, and don't really do anything.
Here is what this week looked like before planning.
Now this is completely blank. I tend to do a bit of pre-planning. I add if there are any bills due for the week at the first of the month typically cause they do not change. Also if anything is due at the library I will put it in there as well. Any events that happen to be going on I will either put it in pencil or put a post it note with what's going on. Towards the end of the week, I will start planning my to-do list of the next week, so I put it on a post it note as well. The post-it notes that I used here was the post-it brand where the back is completely sticky.
I typically plan Sunday night. As you can see I do put that I plan on Sunday. When I start my planning, I pull out what washi tape that I want to use for that week and stickers that I plan to decorate with. Then I will pull out all my color coding dotes and stickers (you can get these at Office Depot, Hobby Lobby, Wal-Mart, and most dollar stores. After I have all, I will white out the words at the bottom of the page where I put my washi. Why? I have notice that most of my washi the words show through, and I think it looks neater. At the left hand corner where I put my to-do list, I write out the words there as well.
Here is what this week's layout looks like.
I decided to go with a Red, White, and Blue color them again this week. I had this washi that I did not get to use for my fourth layout, so I decided to coordinate the layout colors with what EC had used.
Washi--Wal-Mart
Stickers-- Michael's (Unsure whether it's still available).
Small color coding dotes--brighter ones (pink and yellow) Hobby Lobby brand Avery; darker ones (blue and red) Office Depot- store brand
Yellow and Pink large color coding dotes-- Dollar Tree
Square Color Coding-- Wal-Mart--Avery brand
I did use my label maker this week to make the label for TO DO. I also used some white labels I had to indicate my days off. I am unsure where I got these, but you can get plan white labels pretty much every where that sell office supplies. I also used my Paper Mate Flair Pens, which are currently my favorite brand of pens to use in my ECPL.
At the top, I always put the week's forecast which I use the Weather Channel app from my phone for it.
I hope you all have a wonderful week, and I will hopefully see you all here next week with a New Plan With me.
