Just wondered if anyone here has a paper planner?
Filofax, Erin condren, Franklincovey, van der spek, gillio etc.
I am 28 and find the planner community on FB to be quite bitchy so reaching out on here despite having no kids.
I’ve tried so many over the years, recently ordered a custom VDS which cost around £400 (takes 8 weeks to make) because none of the others were really doing it for me in terms of design. It’s been fun to design one by myself. Hopefully I like it just as much in person. I’m using Franklin covey compact inserts. I like true a6 too but they’re too hard to get hold of and I just don’t have the time or inclination to make them. I’ve tried stalogy and Hobonichi, but I just don’t like a bound book very much, despite how annoying rings can get while writing. It is worth it for the customisability.
I do a bit of YT but am very much a tiny channel with only around a hundred subscribers. As I say, I avoid the groups on social media as I had some trouble critiquing a product and names and shamed the company and someone rang the police saying I’d committed slander.
i still have an iPhone but there’s something satisfying about pen and paper!
Luckily my partner indulges my stationery fetish although he doesn’t understand it 😂 he used to work in the Filofax factory though and has plenty of tales to tell.
