My Planner Supplies! Pt. 1

In my opinion, planning wouldn't be as much fun if I didn't have all these awesome supplies to use while doing it! There are so many places you can order supplies from, so I'll talk about that in this post!

I buy most of my functional stickers from Etsy. As you might be able to tell, I love Oh, Hello Stationery Co. The majority of my stickers have been purchased from here, and the sticker quality is pretty great! My favorite stickers to buy from her are the page flags, half to-do lists, and the MDNs (the stickers that replace the morning/day/night titles).  Here are some pictures of those!





Oh, Hello also has quite a few decorative stickers.  Some of the ones I have purchased are shown below, but she has quite a few more on her Etsy shop!  I love using the cupcakes to denote birthdays, and the appointment sampler to visually show me when I have a hair, nail, or doctor appointment coming up!


These stickers are what came in the back of my Erin Condren Life Planner.  They were in the form of a sheet, but I cut them like this to help fit them where I store my stickers at.  It seems to have worked out very well, and didn't hurt the stickers at all! Blank stickers, as well has birthday, anniversary, appointment, etc. stickers are included in your Erin Condren Life Planner purchase!


These two sticker books are really awesome, and well worth the money as well! I bought the recollections book at Michael's for about $3.99 (I had a coupon for 40% off!), and the Happy Planner stickers for $4.99 each.  


I use the rectangular stickers for denoting appointments or special events.  While they are on the smaller side, I still like them and they give a lot of color to your planner! I haven't really come up with a use for the circular ones, yet, but I'm always looking for new ways to use them! If you have any suggestions, leave them in the comments! :)



My favorite functional sticker books are definitely the Happy Planner ones.  The stickers fit almost perfectly in the vertical ECLP, which I was super excited about! I don't really like ordering from the Erin Condren website because, they seemed to take forever to ship out my planner.  Since I don't like waiting for things to come in the mail, I swung by the closest Hobby Lobby and picked these bad boys up!




Last, but not least, I can't forget about my pen.  Out of all the pens I have written with in my planner thus far, this one is definitely my favorite! While it does smudge sometimes, it doesn't smudge nearly as often as the other pens I have used.  It writes with a nice crisp line, and it's super thin so it doesn't look very bold.  If I find another pen I really like, I'll be sure to let all of you know!


If you have any comments or suggestions of other Etsy shops, or stores I should visit to collect more supplies let me know! Look out for part 2 of my planner supplies coming soon!

  1. I use my circle ones for times of events and they layer it on top of the event sticker I used. I write fairly large so it's hard for me to fit what I'm doing on one sticker. Hahaha.

    1. That's a good idea! I have the same issue! I'm planning on buying all the machines I need to make my own stickers so I can actually make them the size that fits my handwriting lol :)
