Lovely new planner

The time is approaching for my new 2024 diary .
I'm a paper person and I like a monthly spread, a weekly view, and places for making notes and to do lists as well as sections to record birthdays, random musings and stick tickets in etc. I'm a one book for everything type. What's your favourite planner/diaries?

Another boxclever fan - I like the columns for different family members...

I love planners and could never find one quite right for my ADHD brain. I don't like filofaxes and prefer slimmer, larger than A5 but A4 is too big. I now have a Kokuyo B5 smart ring notebook and print off my own planner pages so everything is just as I want it. I love the flexibility and being able to remove pages and chop and change as it suits me.

I am currently doing new layouts as we have had a big upheaval in work and routine!

Have a look at Mum's diary. Cringey name but brilliant diaries. Lots of room for notes.

They also have a range called Blox which doesn't reference 'Mum'. I bought this one for myself: BLOX Diary 2024 (Champagne) amzn.eu/d/0dfV7Xb

I have this one and buy the calendar insert from Amazon. The planner itself has space for letters, appointment cards.

I'm roughly £7 a year to buy the calendar insert from Amazon.

Wow £500 Jesus!!!

I bought an Ottergami dotted notebook and made my own pages because none that I have ever found match what I need. I've taken a photo of the ones that I've made but haven't put any information in. I like the freedom to choose my own layouts, even though I find actually making them to be quite the chore. The paper is lovely and thick; I use a fountain pen and the ink doesn't bleed or feather.

I’ve ordered this one, currently using their smaller one but wanted more room for lists next year https://fraserandparsley.com/collections/planners/products/copy-of-weekly-to-do-2024-planner-4

I really like the look of these but they are sold out! I've subscribed so can hopefully have the notification to order next year. Thank you Smile

BusyB love them!

I use a moleskine weekly one, it's very simple a week on one page and a page for notes/tasks on the other side, and then some more general pages at front and back. Works well for me although am also interested in all the other options out there!

I’ve really enjoyed the Erin Condren vertical planners!

Amber17 · 14/11/2023 19:16

Big fan of the Circle planner - they’ve just brought out a wire-bound version this year that lays beautifully flat.

honeyfox · 14/11/2023 19:16

Paperblanks diaries are fantastic, been using them for years. You can choose the size, layout etc.

NearlyMonday · 14/11/2023 19:15

I put reminders in my phone but need a paper diary for appointments etc. I cause chaos if I try to add them to my iPhone calendar!

Eloffle · 14/11/2023 19:06

Boxclever press

I think I got one from tkmaxx but they're on Amazon too and good value for about £10.

I am fussy about having space for a weekly to do list and a monthly view and they have it (or at least some of them do!) Tk maxx / homesense are good for a browse of a few different brands.

I have a Clever Fox Planner. Lovely thick paper - I love it.

Typecast · 14/11/2023 18:53

Hobonichi Cousin or Hobonichi Weeks depending on your size preference. A little pricy but I swear by both of them.

ChocolateCinderToffee · 14/11/2023 18:53

The Folio Society do a lovely diary and last year I got one free when I bought a book from them. I don't know if this happens every year, to be fair.

Ponderingwindow · 14/11/2023 18:52

I used a Hobonichi weeks for years. This year I’m in a Hobonichi cousin.

I’m not hooked. I’m thinking of branching out.

Badbadbunny · 14/11/2023 18:51

I still use a good old Filofax. Used to use one in the old days, but then moved onto computer, but hated it, so went back to Filofax a few years ago.

Star11111 · 14/11/2023 18:50

I use the boxclever press family planner. I love all the columns and week views for the full family and separate columns for work, home, children, food, sports etc

Squirrelblanket · 14/11/2023 18:50

I've been researching this intensely and my current favourite is the Pareto planner, closely followed by the Fox pro weekly planner.

Dweetfidilove · 14/11/2023 18:48

The Mum’s diary for a few years when my daughter was younger. More recently a refillable tiny Filofax.

Fox planners mine is my life saver
