Personalised Planner {Give Away}

Are you frustrated with the general planners out there ?  Would you like to design your own, personalize the pages, add birth dates and not have to transfer them to another planner again ? Simply have it arrive in the mail ready for you to use ?

Look no further I have found the planner for you it's called Personalised Planners! This planner was birthed out of one ladies frustration over not being able to find the right planner to suit her needs so her husband designed her one and as they say the rest is history...

Features

• Excellent quality paper
• Designing and ordering your planner without creating an account.
• Creating an account. This option allows you to add important dates to your calendar via personalized lists.  These lists are available to use and add to any future planner so if you make a planner as a gift it will not contain your birthday list unless you add it.
• A planner or a Notebook
• Your choice of size (Small, Medium, Large or A5)
• Your choice of language inlay (Australian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, British, German, Austrian)
• Your choice of design for the front and back
• Add friends and families birthdays to the inlay (personal dates)
• You pick the start and end date of your planner.
• Choose your own photo for the cover or choose a cover designed by a professional designer.  There are five years worth to choose from.
• Chose your own inlay layout and design. (colour, writing space, daily details, theme) 
• Personalize your writing space.
• Choose your Daily Details.
• Your choice of design theme for the top of the page
• Choose your own modules for the base of each page. (3 modules with a choice of 13 options each)
• Customize the back pages of your planner (Three sections to personalize)
• Customize your owner information pages (three areas)
• The option to save your work in progress and come back another day to complete it.
• Your colour choice for the elastic closure and ruler 

Would I change anything ?

• There is only one thing I would add to this planner and that is the ability to chose the size of the font used in the personal dates section as these are printed in a size 6 which can be difficult to read on the page.

Extra's**

• Calf or Elk leather cover for your planner
• Gift Cards
•  Accessories (rulers, elastic closure, pen)

** NOT included in the prize.

Enjoy exploring the possibilities they are endless. I look forward to blessing one of you with a personalized planner courtesy of Personalized Planners

Blessings

However, other circumstances prevail, proving to Nora the importance of just being herself. Just Plain Nora is recommended for children, age eight to twelve.

Jimmie from Jimmie's Collage and The Notebooking Fairy has donated a TWO sets of her eBooks books for two participants to win.

Have you wanted to implement Notebooking into your home school ?  Jimmie has created an excellent eBook that will help you not only implement notebooking but answer these questions:
Am I using notebooking to its fullest potential ?
How do I know if my children are really learning ?
How do I use notebooking to help my children learn and to remember what they learn ?
What should I expect from different ages ?

This book is not a workbook or a set of lesson plans nor is it a curriculum.  It is a how to manual that teaches the teacher the ins and outs of notebooking.
Notebooking Success is available to purchase for the Summer Special of $5.50 over at The Notebooking Fairy.  **

Jimmie recently took part in a 10 Days of Language Arts blog hop from which Designing Your Language Arts Curriculum was birthed.

The ten topics covered are: grammar, spelling, vocabulary, poetry, reading, literature, building a library, writing, Shakespeare, and public speaking.

The eBook is in PDF format and can be purchased at Jimmies Collage for $3-00.**
