Hello again!
What's this? Another PWM that's not a video?
Yup. I'm learning that I'm not very good at goals.
If you're not too disgusted with my lack of camera skills... this week I'm using the Something Wicked full weekly kit in Happy Planner size in my Erin Condren vertical planner.
Despite my love of orange in some situations, when I think Halloween, I think purple. So I absolutely loved this kit!
I immediately flipped the book around to do my sticker stacking, starting with the side bar.
You can see in the picture below how the Happy Planner boxes extend more than a quarter inch below the EC boxes.
The Happy Planner washi is not the proper length for the bottom of the page, but the beauty of mixing the sizes is that the sticker column goes right to the bottom of the page. No washi necessary.
And don't you just love how my new nail polish matches the kit?
Simple things, I tell ya.
In my post where I compared stickers papers, I mentioned how this premium matte stuff is straight from heaven... maybe not in so many words... but one of it's virtues is how it lays down nice and smooth after being peeled up again...
and again...
In fact this was the most peel it up and stick it back down kind of week I've ever had.
At one point, rearranging the whole darn page!
The glue on these stickers is pretty strong, especially to itself (sticker on sticker) but the glue gods were with me this week and didn't cause any mess as I peeled and straightened, and peeled and moved, and peeled and straightened...
The last week in October is a busy one for our family. It starts with my birthday, has my daughter's birthday in the middle, which means a sweet sixteen party on Friday, and a Halloween party on Saturday, which means putting together five 1920's costumes and making a ton o' food. Throw school parties and work parties and you can just thank God that we're no longer at the school with the giant fall festival hoopla anymore.
Ok, maybe not that bad. It's all too fun to get too grumpy about, but busy, busy, busy.
I don't know if I was really that picky about which sticker each day should get or if my hectic week magnified my OCD... most likely both.
I did finally figure it all out, though, and I made use of my new little things optional boxes to change some of the asterisk Littles into phones and Instagrams.
I really love how the HP stickers cover the whole column. I recently reworked my kits to contain seven Little Things of each color so I could have those OCD organized rows of color, and aren't they beautiful?
With the exception of the washi sheet, I used almost all the stickers. I also left out the quarter boxes, since the full boxes were too cute to cover! In retrospect, could have used the EC sized kit and stacked the quarter boxes above the fulls to make up the distance to the bottom... maybe next year.
And that's it. Time to clutter it up with my awful handwriting!
If you're wondering why it's been so long since I did a PWM, and you're probably not, it's because October has been October around here, and I haven't had time to plan the chaos!
^ ^ ^ can you believe this ^ ^ ^
This last week actually came out pretty cute with the Gardening Gold kit stagger style...
excuse me, I did not intend to give you the finger shot!
Anyway, if you've made it this far, thanks for planning with me!
I think I'm going to give up on learning videos for now and concentrate on just getting things planned!
