Taking the day off to go to Chillies and Hobby Lobby!! That is the absolute sweetest, I love it!

I love Hallmark Xmas movies and all of their movies! When life is always so busy and stressed, a Hallmark cheesie movie, with knowing that it will end with all the good guys getting together, is a blessing! Thanks for the planner ideas!

Thumbs up because Hallmark Countdown to Christmas is the bomb!!! JS

We all have shirts in my family for everyone that say, “this is my Hallmark Christmas movie watching shirt”. We love Hallmark!!

Yesssssss! 🎅🎄

I’m watching this on mute because I’m with my mom in her physical therapy session, but I love everything I’m seeing. I can’t wait to watch it again later with the sound!

Who doesn't love Hallmark Christmas movies?! They are great!

The doctor paper is good for babysitters too! I like the idea of taking pages out of old planner and put in the new one.

Coloring pages are great for the kids to use when out and about . I like to do it to for stress relief.

I am SO with you. As soon as October starts, I'm in a whole other mindset, because I LOVE October to New Years. My favorite time of year is the fall/winter season! My new neutral hourly is supposed to be on my doorstep tomorrow, so I'll be able to get in and look at it. I hate having lost half hour times, I do plan to use that top bar for weather, and I might do like you and do meal planning at the bottom!

The dashboard idea is sooo great! I also take out the stickers on the back and find myself using them a lot more because of it AND you are spot on with the laminated tab on the monthly page. It drove me nuts to have to use a different marker so I’d slap a sticker over it. Love it!

You blew my mind with that page you snipped out! I want the last couple of weeks of June in my new planner because I’m going on a trip, but I really didn’t want to uncoil the whole thing for just a couple of pages. I just tested the snipping on a coloring page and it works like a charm!

I love hallmark channel movies!!!!!

I do the same thing with my stickers! I hate flipping back and forth to use them, so when I know I'm going to sticker something, it's so much easier to take them all out and spread them apart so I can visualize everything.

Netflix still has Christmas movies!! Just watched one a few weekends ago! Love me some cheesy Christmas movies!! 🎄🎄

With your love for Hallmark movies, you'd love the stickers that PumpkinPaperCo has on her Etsy shop for the holidays. It's a girl on the couch with her hot drink and popcorn watching Hallmark movies. It's so adorable!! 🥰 Great video! I just purchase my first EC planner so I'm super excited to try it next month.

Oooooh I'll check that out!

I’m back!! The thing that bothered me most about the new LP was the monthly tab, but you brought up a really good point. I also hated that plastic part being in my way for writing on those calendar pages. I had decided to just use a paper clip to attach the month page to the tabbed page since those sort of new dashboard pages are not something I’ll need to look at daily. I also like knowing that the month icon can be completely covered in the neutral. That is not the case in the colorful. This was a great setup video. I hope we can meet some day! PS, I got that same cover!!

I really think that you may be my new favorite planner! I like the way that you demonstrate function and not just what you received from Erin Condren or swag. Please continue to show ways to best utilize our planners. Thanks : )

The color pages are great for adding pages you want to keep! I usually put items from my kids there with an adhesive runner!! It’s a great addition for memories!

Hallmark all the way! I watch them all haha from Christmas to every Saturday premiere and the hallmark movie and mysteries #sleuthers

You. Are. So. Ready! 😯 Suddenly I feel like my planner needs to get here asap so I can get set up! Lol That monthly tab has always driven me crazy so I am totally on board with that change!

Agh!! The comment about tabs makes so much sense. Now I’m excited about ordering. Debating on getting the hourly this year.

Yay! loving your videos Sarah!

I’m so glad I came across this! I loved watching the set up walkthrough, I subscribed to your channel and can’t wait to see more videos 🤗

This was so helpful! I am going to try some of your notes page ideas!

Girl, you had me with Hallmark Christmas Movie! I'm now a new subscriber. I'm going to be an hourly gal in 2020 as well! Thank you for the tips and tricks for planning!

Loved this!!! Can’t wait till mine arrives. I went with Colorful Hourly.

I went with neutral hourly layout as well. LOVE this Thanks for making this keep videos coming :) Your handwriting 🤤🤤🤤

I cannot believe you’ve just convinced me I need an hourly again. This is so helpful to watch. I’m excited to set mine up!

This just convinced me to get the Neutral hourly. And I loved your ideas! I maybe borrowing some of those.....

I love your use of notes pages. I’ll be lifting a few of these.

I am a 12 month calendar planner in EC but I LOVE watching all of the setups - yours was great! Side note, my husband and I are also celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary this year (May 22) and I loved your list of ideas.

Lots of great ideas! Thanks! 👍🏻

Just subscribed based on your love of Hallmark Christmas movies!!! I love them too. They always have a happy ending. 😊

New friend here. I am so into September to Christmas. Love Halloween love Fall and thanksgiving but freaking love Christmas time. Thanks for sharing. Just setting up my planner now so looking for ideas.

I also rip out the stickers-way easier to use. I cover the coloring pages with calendars and reading challenges

Haha! I love your Hallmark Christmas Countdown!! My 18 and 11 y/o daughters and I love Hallmark movies and boy do we get some comments. LOL! Glad we’re not alone! 😁

Good idea! I will be cutting out the sheet of stickers too!

LOVE Hallmark too!

i can't wait to plan on mine. i wish they started in may rather than july. it will be agony to wait two months to use it. thanks for the suggestions for the different pages:)

I’m from that area of WV you are talking about! 😂 Love me some Chili’s ( and Hobby Lobby)!

The monthly laminated tab really bugged me as well. I'm glad it's gone. I call the 2 preceding pages my monthly dashboard. It'll help me with pre-planning and putting my habit trackers in. I love that the full boxes cover up the month on the side. I think they put that in mind.

Thanks for the ideas. I’m new to EC & my organizer is on its way. You have fabulous nails. Have you tried Color Street?

Great video!

Love the Hallmark Channel, I'm watching it now.

Super helpful, thank you.

I use a notes page for gift ideas. If my kids mention something when we are out that they would like I can write it down and when a birthday or occasion rolls around I have an idea of what they want and prices. I also include nieces and nephews and my husband on the list too. I use another page for books that I want to read so I don't forget them

Totally enjoyed finding and listening and learning from your ideas.

I noticed something called Bubble Pizza in your meals list. What IS that? lol. I really enjoyed your walk through on your set up.

It's canned biscuits cup into quarters and mixed with pizza ingredients. Baked in a bundt pan. Pulled apart and ate! Like monkey bread, but with pizza ingredients. My kids called it bubble pizza so it stuck!

I know im a little late but I noticed that while you were flipping through the July weeklies the first weekly says June on the top. Im not sure if you caught this or not but thought I should let you know.

Use the coloring pages for pen testing

I don't understand what you said about ripping out the extra months?

omg where do you get your hallmark stickers from? I need it!!

They're from the EC Sticker Book. I linked them in my description, but they're sold out at the minute. They should be back soon!

Haven't watched all the video yet, but I wanted to comment when you were talking about you not using the coloring pages. I don't use them either. But instead of ripping them out or just not using them, and to have extra pages- I just find something else and cover the coloring pages up. I think there were 4 coloring pages for the 2018-2019 lp, right? (glad there are only two for the new planner) I found a etsy shop that made a digital download of reading the bible thru in a year, I also have a book tracker, tv shower tracker, and a movie tracker. So there are some ideas if you want to end up just covering the pages up and still get to use the pages.

I don't know......I like Erin condren but I'm not really a fan of the new kaleidoscope theme.

With planners like that, I rip out my stickers too. I don't like having to flip back and forth to the page.

Why not use the entire 18 months as the normal planner instead of buying one every 12 months? Just curious

This is totally off the planner subject.... your nails. :) Are they natural or the glue on kind? ;) And of course, I loved this video!
