I Should Have Sewn...: Tutorial Tuesday: Blog Planner

cover

Calendar view

My Main goal for this year is to be more organized. While over the last few years I have slowly become better with being on track, prepared and organized. I feel that there's always room for improvement, especially when it comes to here. I always have tons of ideas to blog about and things I want to share but never can remember them when I sit to write, or I can't seem to find the paper I wrote the idea on. This is where a Blog Planner comes in to being. I already have planners for SewAnna Button Designs and for our Household so why not here. I looked at several free ones on Pinterest but didnt like the design or felt they didnt exactly fit my needs so I opened Photoshop and made my own.

Weekly overview

The Binder its self is simple. I have a monthly calendar overview. Which allows me to see the month at a glance. Then there are weekly pages that allow me to jot down Idea's, keep track of To-Do's, track my stats, and keep track of post for that week. There are check circles for keeping up with whither I shared the post, its only drafted or is published. The final page for the month is a Review/ Giveaway tracker. this allows me to keep all the details of the review or giveaway in one place. It repeats for each month. I kept it simple and expandable by putting it in a binder instead of having it bound like I originally wanted. This makes it easy to add or remove pages as I need them. I made the color scheme Yellow and Grey since I am still obsessed with it at the moment. I'm working on a few other combos as well and will share those when they are done as well.

All I did to assemble it was Punch the holes and put it in the binder with dividers. Super easy. You could save all the hassel and have it bound (its about $12-$15 at the places I checked)

Enjoy! and if you have questions or suggestions leave a comment. I'll get back with you.
