SEPTEMBER PLANNER SPREADS
Month-At-A-Glance
I decided this month that I would be fully committing to a scrapbook look with a lot of pasted in background colours and images that I liked from Pinterest (check out the board, HERE)!
On the top left page, I used a ruler and Tombow Monotwin black pen/marker to create a mini calendar. I love the look of bold black cursive as titles in my spreads—I think it really fits with more of the scrapbooking vibes and is also so forgiving in comparison to a font style that really relies on precise line work.
Habit Tracker + Self Care Ideas
After pasting in some more Pinterest-found images, I brought out my circle template to create a circular habit tracker. If you follow my channel, then you know I typically go for really basic square/rectangular grids for my habit trackers each month, but I’ve seen some people online do circular ones and I just had to try it for myself! The habits I decided to track with this one were hydration, meditation, and workouts.
On the next page next to the habit trackers, I decided to write down some fall-themed self-care items to give me ideas when I’m looking to enjoy some “me time” in September. Some of the things I wrote included: playing hooky from work, making a homemade pumpkin spice latte, organizing my apartment bills and business expenses, etc.
Gratitude Log + Quote Page
On the left page, I created a spot for a gratitude log. It feels like it’s been a while since I’ve dedicated an entire page to a gratitude log, and I ended up so in love with how this one turned out. The layout is simple: just the numbers 1 to 30 listed vertically, with a spot on the right to quickly write down something I’m grateful for each day.
The quote on the right page says, “Document the moments you feel most in love with yourself— what you’re wearing, who you’re around, what you’re doing. Recreate and repeat” by Warsaw Shire. I think it’s such a beautiful quote so I wanted to give it its own special space.
Weekly Page
After making a spot to write out some mini to-do lists for each day of the week, I had some gaps that I wanted to be filled in. For the first one, on the bottom of the left page, I created a spot to record the book that I’m currently reading on that given week. On the right page, I just wrote out this reminder that I’m always telling myself variations of: “you don’t need to apologize for how you spend your time.”
