Monthly Planner Desk Pad

Monthly Planner Desk Pad

This calendar has been a life-saver for keeping me organized while working from home - I just finished my first one and didn't hesitate to order a second. I especially love the habit tracker at the bottom, it reminds me to do small things for myself in between work tasks! Given that each one has enough sheets for almost 2 years, it's more than worth it.

Note that the amber is a little more brown than the gold showed in the picture (though it may have been updated since I bought it in 2020). Nice paper finish and the 17x11 is a perfect size.

Love the overall look of the planner, very clean and pretty. I really wish they would redesign the month field. Instead of providing the month name, they provide the month number. So you circle the month number ‘2’ for February. Visually this isn’t very user friendly. I need to see the actual month name, i don’t know anybody who thinks of the months by what number they are

The paper itself is super smooth and lovely to write on and touch. It’s super thin though, which means ink pens or any markers or highlighters are going to bleed through to the next page behind it. I’m already a annoyed by the blotches from this but I’m trying to write super lightly to avoid it. The quality of the sticky holding the pad together is also not great quality so I wouldn’t play with this calendar too much, leave it aside and don’t move it around or you may accidentally pull off some pages from the pad

Personally I wish this started on a Sunday not a Monday but that’s a minor note, just will take some time to get used to

One thing I really love is that you input the days and month which means no pages go to waste. With traditional calendars you have to end up throwing out irrelevant months, here you just fill in whatever month info you need and get use out of every page!

Overall a cute calendar with potential but could use a quality bump and design tweak

Je ne peux m'en passer! Je l'adore!
