Emily, Emily, Emily how I adore you! This is so lovely. You make me feel like anything is possible. I am the most disorganized human on the planet. my Christmas card addresses are little ripped corners off of the envelopes which I keep in a box that I'm constantly trying to find before every Christmas. I either overkill people with handmade cards with chatty notes or completely ignore them for 2 years..... this is the life of an inconsistent loser. lol! thank you from the bottom of my tiny little pandemic sadden and tired heart for this bit of sunshine!! xxxx now, can I send you some happy mail?

[@EmilyKariya]

Hi Bev! I love the way you keep everything in random boxes in cupboards! I am so glad you were cheered a little by my video! You are of course more than welcome to send me happy mail, but don't feel obliged to since you already mentioned it. I promise I am as inconsistent as you are so I definitely won't hold you to anything. Hope you and your family are doing well, hope to chat soon xxxx

This is the first time that I have ever commented on a KZbin video! Your Xmas planner is brilliant and inspirational! I also plan for Xmas but not to this level of organisation...I hope you don't mind but I have pinched some of your ideas, thank you! I would also like you to add the printables to your shop (which I am going to visit when I have finished writing this), would it be easy to resize them to a 'personal wide' planner do you think?, kind regards from the UK xx

[@EmilyKariya]

Hi Kathryn! Of course please pinch any ideas of mine if you find them useful! So glad I got your first KZbin comment! I've added the printables to my shop but currently they are only A5 I'm afraid! I will look into doing them in different sizes but I can't guarantee anything as it took me three days to make the A5 ones haha! I hope your Christmas organising is going well! xxx

hi where did you get that beautiful red planner? Is that Filofax? Ive never used them before so I have no idea what they look like or where to get them,. Anyway thank you!

[@EmilyKariya]

Hello! Yes that is a Filofax. If you search 'Filofax A5 Original' you will find them. I can't remember the colour name for this but maybe add 'red' on the end to get this colour! You can often find them secondhand if new is too pricey!

Do you have any tips or suggestions for a newbie Christmas planner?

[@EmilyKariya]

Hello! Ok so the way I started was to have a look at a bunch of planner videos (which I guess you have already done!) to see how other people use them, then I bought a few printables from Etsy to give me a framework to play with. As I started using it I added in parts that I felt I needed, and removed pages that didn't work. Over a few years I've worked out what I need as my basic setup but I still add and remove things as I go. I think it is also important to have fun with the set-up in terms of dividers and dashboards. Use images and designs that make you happy! The best thing to do is just to start something and edit as you go, don't set yourself any rules or expectations, and above all make sure you do what YOU like, and what YOU enjoy and what YOU need xxx
