The struggle is real. Glad I’m not the only one who is always trying to decide the best planner and journaling method. Thanks for showing us the different sizes and sharing your thoughts/ideas.

I think Catherine at Sterling Ink has notebook and notebook booklets in the B6 slim size. So, if you’re worried about running out of pages, you could always add a notebook/notebook booklet and keep it in your cover with your planner. Good video. Just found your channel today and subscribed.

I LOVE Seeing ur face again.! Thank you for explaining Sterling Inks B6 slim planner/journal. I would love an in depth show and tell from you.!! You turned me into a B6 Slim girl (well woman, I am old, lol) Years ago.! I went from Wide to Standard than to B6 Slim (in Chic Sparrow covers) to then adding Hobonichi Cousin and Weeks, still always using my B6 Slims… Cafe Notes or right now I’m in Midori. Now that I’m retired, all I really need is my Weeks and B6 Slim, but darned it I don’t keep trying the size a6 because its so cute. But I never stick to that size.! Oh and I also have Travelers Co.! I may have retired from work, however I still need & love my journaling, paper, fountain pens, inks, water color …. It’s Who I Am.! 💖💖💖💖 I have you to thank for a large part of that. Jesus and Journaling.!! 🙏💖 You Blessed me all those years ago, I can’t thank you enough.!!! 💖💖

I love the b6 slim as well but I use the vertical. So for 2024 I got the standard size and had staples cut the bottom part of it off and it was a perfect b6 slim. I was happy when she came out with the b6 slim for next year. I did add in my spiritual notebook into my planner to use these extra pages.

I am looking forward to haveing the B6 slim in my hands. Then I will purchase the B6 when that launches. Also, I am super excited for the only slightly darker lines and numbers.

I wasn’t sure how I would respond as I tend to like comforts of what was. But I don’t mind it at all and I think it will be super helpful for nighttime journaling. 🥰

@mother0fpearlz772Ай бұрын
Maybe if your main issue is concern over having not enough or way too many leftover pages, you could try dividing up your book into months (using little tabs?) and then divide each tab into 4 so then you have a chunk of pages for each week that you are free to fill? Or working out what your ideal number of pages per week might be and choosing a book with that number of pages. Might be sort of like writing up a budget, it gives you the freedom of knowing how much you can spend. With dividing up however many pages you want to use each week, it gives you that freedom of knowing that you'll have enough AND that you'll use up the book :)

I like the darker lines but I also had sooo many pages left at the end of the year. I started tearing them out writing letters on the extra pages-it is such nice fountain paper.
@AliBrownieАй бұрын
It’s da besssssst paper! 🤤
@Chaos_and_CreativityАй бұрын
Also, i would rather have TOO many pages left at the end of the year (i can always go back in and add notes or commonplace in it) than not have enough... ALSO, i adore your idea of putting photos in the goal area.... I use a couple planners each year and one is for memory keeping and journaling so i wouldnt use the goals pages in that one and would love a picture in each space of my favorites for the year. Such a good idea!!

Inquiring minds want to know 😂❤; have you decided on the size? For me, it’s a toss up between vertical B6 slim and B6. My brain can’t handle horizontal 🙃

I have tried it in the B6 cover and it gets lost. I’ll have to purchase a new cover for it if I stick with the B6 Slim. 😅

Have you done a video talking about the reflection section of the weekly layout? I avoided buying the CO B6 slim because I have a weeks leather cover. I feel your struggle! See ya, Celeste
@happyjoynesssАй бұрын
The struggle I had this year was I need a planner that can fit my home management, budget , my personal stuff, my kids stuff. But it needs to be portable and act as a journal. I picked the week’s size this year and hopefully I can fit it all. I feel like a crazy person. 😂
@AliBrownieАй бұрын
Oh man! I hope that all fits! Just sit with some pages that are the size and format and you’ll get creative. 🥰

I was almost convinced I was going to get a hobonichi weeks mega. Because the pull is so strong for that brand. But really between N2 and B6 Slim. I’m struggling. Leaning toward b6 slim, wish it had more colors? Maybe I’ll just cover it lol

I'm B6Slim all the way. I have a B6 TN that I occasionally use. I have several (ahem....) A6 TNs and a few Pocket and Passport TNs, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the B6Slim. But I pretty much make my own inserts. My calendar pages are a comedy of errors b/c I always forget how to print on the reverse side. But it's Tomoe River paper, so I'm gonna use it, doggonit!!! I have no idea how I missed your Up from the Ashes video 🤔

You're the first person I thought of when I heard she was doing a B6 Slim. 🙂 I love my regular B6, but whats strange is that I really like the N1 (standard) size this past year but the b6 slim just feels odd.

LORD, I ask You to show Ali how You want her to use her planner for the ensuing year. Show her she has enough room for ALL she needs to write out. Help her to realize in You that she is complete. Help her to focus on You and her commitment to be more to You and less on herself. Help Ali to recognize that life is all about You. Love her fully and completely, that she is so enough in You. Thank You for the new place You have put her husband and her in life. Help her to bloom and grow in this new walk in life. Show her great and marvelous things in You. In Jesus, Amen.
