Filofax Friday

Wow... It's been a while!  I'm getting back into the habit of blogging regularly, I promise.  My only excuse is that life happens.  The end of school completely threw off my groove!  I've been really busy, and just haven't been able to get around to posting.
Anyway, here's this past week:

Monday & Tuesday

Wednesday & Thursday

A friend and I made a quick business trip down to Idaho.  It was a good time, but it was quick!

Friday & Saturday

I'm really enjoying having my kids all day for the summer!  Lots of play time in the sun.

I hope you have a great weekend!  I plan to!

Filofax Friday: A day late... Again

Life has been so busy on Fridays I have not had time to sit down on my computer and blog... I could do it from my phone, but typing on that little screen just isn't appealing to me.

After next weekend, life should slow down considerably and give me some room to breathe!
Here's my week.

I love this washi tape!  Buttons and other sewing notions!

Fleur de lis!  I love fleur de lis.  So much so, that I even have one tattooed on one of my toes.

That's a project life card that you see there.  I've got my son's invitation list for his birthday party that he's having next week on the other side of it.  It's nice to have all my planning right there.

His birthday was Thursday, and he LOVES race cars, so I went with a race car theme.

Have a fabulous weekend!

Another Filofax Saturday!

The last couple of days have kind of been nutso for me.  Too busy to sit down and blog...  So, while I've got a few minutes before anyone else gets up... Here's my week!

Saturday & Sunday.  I didn't do any stickers, but I love the polka dot washi!

Monday & Tuesday.  Monday was Memorial day, so I went with a Patriotic theme.

Wednesday & Thursday.  I love the Ladybugs!

And Friday and TODAY!   I LOVE THE MUSTACHES!!

I made a trip to Hobby Lobby yesterday and found a ton more cute stickers and washi!  Stay tuned on Monday for pictures of another headpiece I'm making!  Have a fabulous weekend!

Filofax Friday

Sorry that I didn't post my Thankful Thursday post yesterday.  My phone died, which is how I post all of my pictures, and it was just impossible to get to it... Look for a double dose next Thursday.

Here's my week!  You'll notice a lot more sticky notes.  I've taken a cue from Jennifer from http://www.mypurpleylife.com and started putting a fly leaf in between my current pages.  This way I can stick notes or whatever I'd like to it and still see the day that I'm on.  After the day is over, I transfer my notes to the corresponding page.  I'm loving how it works!

Sunday & Monday

Tuesday & Wednesday

Aren't those Peacock stickers awesome?  They're from Sticker King.

Thursday & Friday

Here you can see the fly leaf in between my pages.  This is really working well for me.  I've been writing down inspiring Scriptures or quotes every day  and it's really helping me stay positive throughout the day.

Is there a system that you use to help you keep your chin up during the day?  I'd love to hear about it! Leave me a comment!

Filofax Friday: WARNING: photo heavy post!

I love Fridays.  I really do.  And I love Sunday & Monday's pages.  The washi is from Martha Stewart and the fairy stickers are from a local grocery store.  In fact, you'll see a lot of stickers from that particular grocery store.  I lucked out this week and was able to pick up 12 sheets for $1 each!  Scroll down to see more!

Sunday & Monday 

Tuesday & Wednesday

Thursday and Friday

Aren't those froggies adorbs?  (I felt funny typing that word... I don't speak like that, so now I'm wondering if it's weird to type that way... Oh, well, what's done is done.  I'm not changing it now.  Adorbs they are!)

My new washi tape storage!

I know I've already mentioned this in a previous post, but this is seriously one of my best ever finds!  It's called a Mini Stack, and I found it at Goodwill for $2!  Three drawers that are perfectly shaped to store washi.  I heart it.
Now for the stickers... Are you ready?

And... on top of all that, I had a surprise in the mail yesterday from a friend from high school!  She sent me some scrapbook paper and a bunch of stickers!  Thanks, Holly!

So I know this post has been mostly about decorating, but I've been really busy otherwise, too.  My Etsy shop is up, (check it out: https://www.etsy.com/shop/EnVoguePogue)  You'll still see "BabyDoll's Haven" at the top, because I'm having a new logo designed for me.  There's only a couple of things listed right now, but in the very near future, there will be more.  LOTS more.  This coming week, I'm hoping to make my first dust cover for a Filofax.  For me.  Then I will sell some.  My A5 Domino doesn't need protection so much for the leather, but my charms keep getting caught on other things in my bag.  (Terrible problem to have, I think...)  So I will put together a cover for myself, and monogram it or something.  I can't wait!

I'll also be making a dress for one of my good friends' daughter, who is going to be confirmed in the Lutheran church in the next few weeks.  I'm excited about that, too.

I also have several projects that are waiting to be embroidered with names and business logos.  I don't think there's any way that I could keep all of this straight and get it done in a timely fashion without my planner.  I'm so glad I have it!

Have a happy, happy, Friday, and a fabulous weekend!

Filofax Friday

Spring is in full swing here with all the busyness that comes with it.  The boys have baseball, Scouts, and Hip Hop, Haven has dance a couple of days a week, I've got meetings and tons of other things going on, my husband is just as busy as usual, and he's helping coach the boys' baseball team this year.  I have to tell you, though, I'm considerably less stressed out about who's going where now that I have it all in front of me.  It's GREAT to feel this organized!

My grandparents are coming into town this weekend, too, so it's nice to have our plans with them all mapped out in front of me.  And... I'm thinking I need another trip to the Dollar Tree for more stickers and washi!

Monday & Tuesday

My older brother's birthday was on Monday, so I used some fun cupcake stickers.

Wednesday & Thursday

I love the pink leopard print!  And I wrote the references for a couple of my favorite Scripture verses on some chalkboard stickers.

Friday & Saturday

Airplanes and cars!  These are just too cute.  They make me think of my oldest son, which just brings a smile to my face.  Heck, thinking of any of my kids brings a smile to my face.

I'm off to enjoy my weekend full of friends, family, baseball, and food!  Have a good one!

Filofax Friday

Happy Friday!  I hop your week has been as good as mine was.  I LOVED having my boys home for Spring Break, but we were all ready to go back to our routine.  This week was fairly busy, and we've and something going on almost every night.  We enjoy being so busy, but it does make for a rushed dinner hour, and most evenings we don't get to eat together as my husband gets home from work about the same time that the rest of us are rushing out the door to our various activities.
I'm becoming more and more reliant on my Filofax, though.  The busier we get, the more thankful I am that I have it and that I can see everything that we have planned at a glance.
Here's last week's pages:  Ignore the labels on them, please.

Sunday & Monday

These have got to be some of my all time favorite pages!  I love anything Paris inspired, so this was just perfect for me!  My only regret is that I only got to look at them for two days!

Tuesday & Wednesday

Thursday & Friday

This one was so much fun!  If you look closely at the "Caution" tape, it says, "Caution Hot! Caution Fabulous!" etc.  The other washi women in dresses.  SO cute!

Saturday & Sunday

Our boys have their first baseball game tomorrow, so I added a couple of baseballs.  Unfortunately, I didn't have many sports themed stickers, and no sports themed washi at all.  I may have to remedy that, ASAP.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Filofax Friday

Our weekends start with Friday since my husband is home from work.  Not only that, but this week was fairly event-less since my kids had Spring Break.  I've included pictures of my day per page layout and decorations for the week.  Enjoy!

For Friday & Saturday, I used these owl stickers I found at the Dollar Tree along with some that were sent to me in a RAK.

The pink washi is from the Dollar Tree, and the polka dot is from a package of 30 small rolls that I found at Target.  Not much on the schedule!

The finished product

Monday and Tuesday.  I found the black chalkboard stickers at the Target Dollar Spot, and I used a silver marker to write on them.  I love how it looks!

FRUITY!

Here's my Month on Two Pages view.  April Showers!  You can see all my color coding and my repeating appointments here.  I refer to these whenever I'm planning my daily pages.

I've been seriously contemplating getting a personal size Filofax.  I love my A5, and my only concern is that I won't have the room that I need.  The Personals just coming in so many more colors!  I find myself turning green with envy over anything in the purple color range.  I love the new Lavender Patent Original!  Any thoughts?

Enjoy your weekend!  I plan to!

Filofax Friday

As you know, I've changed to a day per page layout, and I'm LOVING it.  I wasn't sure if I'd like it or not, but I really, really do!  So, instead of decorating a week at a time, I've been doing it every other day.  Here's this past week:

I love these little sticky notes by SMASH.  They are absolutely awesome.

This one's gotta be my favorite this week.  :)

And I was RAK'ed this week!  I love everything I got, and I can't wait to use them.

The day per page has really been working for me.  I feel so much more organized and I love the To Do list on the side of every day.  I've been able to stay on top of things even though I haven't been feeling well.  My color coding system seems to work better here, too.  YAY for experimenting with new things!
