I hope you all had a wonderful October and a fun and spooky Halloween if that’s your thing. Our Halloween was spent…
Today I am sharing with you all a Happy Planner Haul. I have picked out my planner for 2024 and along with it some new sticker books and a notebook that was on sale. If you would like some Happy Planner goodies you can use my affiliate link here and receive $10 off an order of $50 or more.
First let’s talk sticker books! I love to decorate my weekly spreads. It’s a calming way to set up for my week and gives me something fun and inspiring to look at when I am checking off to-do’s. I have shared in the past that I am not someone who keeps a full calendar and runs around crazy with lots of “to-do’s” but of course life has a few have-to’s that are important to keep track of. I am also trying out adding a paper business planner to my planning system. I currently use a digital planner which has worked well for content creation but as I am launching my creativity shop this holiday season I think I might want to keep track of everything on paper. I am trying things out with an extra insert in my personal planner and will see how it works out before investing in another planner just for that.
The first sticker book I purchased was “Beautiful & Brave” which is really pretty with soft colors and inspiring quotations. There are 478 stickers sized perfectly for my Classic Sized Planner.
Next up is “Bookish” a sticker book dedicated entirely to all things reading. I had to get this one and you are a follower of my Book Club updates or my Booktube Channel you may know why π I always watch the video before I purchase sticker books. Usually I am pretty happy but once or twice I have received a sticker book that wasn’t at all what I thought so watching the flip through on the product page is helpful.Β Seeing this one in person hasn’t disappointed and I am excited to come up with some fun ways to use these stickers.
I also had to pull in my love for all things gardening and plants so I picked up the “Don’t Stop Growing” and the “Garden Flowers” sticker books. Perfect for adding a little color to those grey days of winter but also to decorate the spring spreads when they come.
The last sticker book is “Woodland Seasons” which coordinates with the planner I purchased. I just love woodlands and mushrooms, foxes and all things that remind me of an enchanted wood. This one is going to be used a lot I am sure especially with the remaining month of fall.
That brings me to the planner I purchased-I picked up The Woodland Seasons 12 month Classic Planner. It has a vertical layout and metal discs. I was completely unaware it had metal discs until just now when writing this post and I have never had a planner with metal discs before. They are really nice! The planner is absolutely gorgeous and I am so excited to start it. If you are woodland lover this may just be the planner for you.
Lastly I picked up a Classic Size Dotted Lined Notebook called “Mail Call.” It has 3 dividers dotted lined pages and a really sweet cover. It was on sale so I picked it up figuring I could use it for filler paper for my planner or on it’s own.
So that is everything I picked up. I have a video below showing the items in detail if you are interested. If you have any questions about anything feel free to comment and I’ll do my best to answer. I would love the hear about your planning system too so feel free to comment that down below as well.
Until next time…

You chose such a beautiful planner – and all the fun, gorgeous stickers to go with it! I’ve always used a basic weekly planner, and I’ve never had a fabulous planner like yours! I recently got the Goodnotes app, and it’s been a challenge to get used to it. I’m tempted to go back to paper!

I have been using Goodnotes for my business this year and I love the idea of a digital planner but I didn’t enjoy it as much as paper planning. I really like the Happy Planners but a basic weekly planner can be just as pretty with some added stickers and washi too π
