Monday Made It: Blogging Planner

I'm back again for this week's Monday Made It! 
This week I made a blogging planner using a ton of FREEBIES!  Be sure to snag some for yourself while you're reading!
Why do I need a blog planner?  Well, last summer I made my teacher organizational binder, which really helped me keep my desk looking clean and organized. 
A few months ago I made a home organization binder which helps me keep all things on the home front organized.

Now that I have those things organized, I decided to make a blogging planner to help me organize my lil ol' blog!
The first thing I did was google free blogging planner.  One of the first sites that popped up was The Eager Teacher
from The Eeager Teacher
I decided to use her dividers which you can download from her TpT store for FREE! 


 
Once I knew what sections I was going to have I went in search of planner pages.  I decided to go with another FREEBIE!  This one was from Simple Sprout:
For the calendar section, I'm using a flash freebie from Luckeyfrog's Lilypad:
Free printable 2013-2014 calendar
For the product section I'm using another FREEBIE from The Eager Teacher:
And the final section I have is the ideas section.  This time the FREEBIE is from Jen at IHeart Organizing:
Here's my final product.  I had it bound at Staples for less than $5:





I made my own cover so I could personalize my planner a little more.  Then I laminated the cover and the back page to make it a little more durable.
I mounted the section dividers on tabs so they would stick out of the planner.  A tip I read about {HERE}.


In addition to the planner pages, I made a little notes page to go on the other side.  I plan to use this side to go into details about posts, linky parties, and giveaways.

 I love how it turned out and am excited to use it!
