I’m a sucker for calendars and planning tools in general.
If they are colorful and pretty, I love them even more. Hopefully you’ll find that my colorful monthly calendars have just the right amount of pop to brighten any space.
Speaking of bright colors, one of my latest obsessions is my Staedtler Marker Pens. A sweet friend got these for my birthday this year and I use them every single day! If you are a pen connoisseur you will LOVE these. They are bright and have a fine line that is fantastic.
Have you heard of the bullet journal?
If not, check out a previous post of mine that will give you all the details. The Leuchtturm 1917 is the notebook I love for my yearly planner / bullet journal. It has dotted lines that allow you to draw the layouts that fit your life perfectly. For 2018, I got a rich, navy colored notebook. It makes me swoon!
Another great organization tool I love is my Pilot Precise V5 Retractable pen (fine line).
It might sound strange to have such a pen fetish, but these are AMAZING! I’ve given them as gifts to several friends…perhaps my friends are as nerdy as me, but they loved them.
This next image shows my year at a glance calendar in my new bullet journal using the Staedtler blue pen and the Pilot Precise V5 RT pen.
Don’t forget to look into the pens I suggested above. If you try them, I bet you become a bit obsessed too! Happy organizing and planning your 2018! Leave me a note below. It makes my day to hear from my readers!
Have a great day,
April
Thanks for the great freebie! I always like pops of color in my organization tools!
My pleasure, Jennifer! I’m so glad you like it!
I have never heard of Staedtler Marker Pens. I’m a preschool teacher and I need these in my life 🙂
Oh my, you will love them! I promise;-)
I’m doing a bullet journal for the first time this year, but it’s focused more on entertainment – so books/movies, etc. I do have “regular” planners for everything else though!!

I love that, Lauren! I love hearing different ways people use their bullet journals.
I’ve been so intimidated by bullet journaling. I love the color and creativity!
You shouldn’t be intimidated. The fun thing about a bullet journal is that you make it your own…it doesn’t have to have all of the artwork or different colors. Some of my favorite layouts are super simple. I’m practical to a fault, so I don’t make time for anything that isn’t functional for my day-to-day!
Ooh, I love the effect of that pen. I just started a bullet journal as well, but mine doesn’t look as good. I love my Leuchtturm though!
The Leuchtturm 1917 is the best notebook! Best of luck with your bullet journal journey;-) It is so fun!
Those calendars look great!
Thanks, Rebecca!
Oh no! You’ve just fed my pen addiction, now I will have to give these pens a try too! Thanks for the tip! I am trying the bullet journal too and the pens I’ve tried all seem to bleed through so far!
Thanks, Gem. I also like Sharpie Pen; it is good, but not as good as the Pilot Precise V5 RT. If you try them, let me know what you think!!!
These are so cute! I love the idea of bullet journalling and I’ve been trying to do it but it’s one of those things I really need to do all the time and get into the habit of it, otherwise, I’m never really going to do it. I just love the idea. Bullet journals are so cute!
Thanks, Christina! Best of luck with bullet journaling 😊
Love planning and being organized! Definitely about time to start thinking about 2018!
Thanks, Ashley! Yes, 2018 is just around the corner!
Love how colorful they are! Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you!
I absolutely love how colourful these are!
Thanks!
I love a good pen. I will search my whole house to find my favorite pen. I haven’t tried this brand and now I’m itching to have them! I haven’t jumped into the bullet journal fad but I do love to journal.
Thanks, Angela. I promise, the Pilot Precise V5 RT are so great! I don’t really use the bullet journal for “journaling”, more for a planner and all of the random lists I keep in one location. You should try it;-)
I tried so hard to make a bullet journal happen for me, but finally had to give it up and buy a planner. I want to try again someday! Thanks for the inspo 🙂

Thanks, Alina! Bullet Journaling is not for everyone. Ultimately, I think everyone should find whatever system works for their life and go with it. Happy planning!
I’m a sucker for planners too! I just started bullet journaling this year and it is a great outlet for my need to plan and my love of being artsy!
Thanks, Vicki! Yes…bullet journaling is such a great outlet in addition to helping organize your life!
This is great! I was needing new calendar printables. I like your clean and simple bullet journal too!
Thanks, Amanda!
