The Planner

A beautifully crafted planner designed to be reused year after year, in a ring binder format with a subtle aesthetic. With a 2024 year insert.

Wrapped in a woven cotton book cloth, embellished with premium gold hardware and filled with thick pages of soft white paper, only the finest materials have been picked to create a charming accessory for the desk-proud.

The planner itself is handcrafted in the seaside town of Margate and designed and printed nearby in the English countryside. The design is beautiful, yet simple, to allow for your own creativity to blossom.

Each detail within the planner has been considered with the utmost care and thoughtfulness, to create the perfect planning companion for whoever may be using it. Whether it be a personal diary of events and celebrations, a florist’s calendar of bookings for the year ahead, or indeed, a stationer’s sidekick for week by week organisation.

The ring binder format allows for versatility in its use with additional inserts available (see current options here). The inserts themselves are designed in a way to make them adaptable to your own needs, whether it be with the year, month and week overviews, areas for goals, notes and to dos, or space to include extra note pages.


Why?

When searching for my own yearly planner as a designer and stationer, I really struggled to find what I needed. I yearned to find a tool to satisfy my love (and need) for planning and organising, with pen and paper, whilst being understated in its design so not to distract from my own creativity.

The only option I did find was costing me a small fortune every year, and even that wasn’t perfect. I also can’t bear to throw away any stationery-related items, so those past planners were starting to stack high!

So for the year of 2024 I set out to create my own planner, which I could refill year after year, with a simple but beautiful design, and of course being a thing of beauty sat on my desk every day. Upon sharing a few sneak peeks of the process of creating my new perfect planner, I received such wonderful comments and realised it wasn’t just me with a need and appreciation for such a thing! So now I’m bringing them to you...
