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 |
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:
And the final section I have is the ideas section. This time the FREEBIE is from Jen at IHeart Organizing:
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!
