ERIN CONDREN 2022 Planners! DAILY + ALL WEEKLY LAYOUTS + RINGS

[@AmandasFavorites]

The extra weekly lined notes page that was shown in the flora rings a-5 Daily Duo is also a media copy and is not going to be in the planners this year. Since several comments have been about this I wanted to share a little background. Until yesterday afternoon we all thought that extra page in the Daily Duo was included and I though it was a game changer! I raved about it in this video...lol! Then I received an email the day before this video came out from my EC rep. She said that they just realized that mistake of the extra page in the media copies we had been sent. So I had to go back in and edit out my raving and put the caption on the screen to tell you that page is not in the planners, and then re-upload the whole video to KZbin. I should I have put the same caption in the flora Daily Duo flip through to further clarify. I hope that clears it all up...and maybe next year they will have that extra lined page per week. I always wanted that in any daily planner I used and I thought it was brilliant!

[@leahmckee3906]

I was very excited when I saw that extra page a week. Bummer!

[@tarawilliams6041]

Could you find out if the coiled daily will have the year at a glance calendar up front. It is shown in the A5 but not the coiled version. Thanks. I really use that feature.

[@HelloAgainJen23]

That is too bad. I was excited about having a page to meal plan, budget, or track something on a weekly basis.

[@ackman3981]

Wonder if eventually they might sell extra pages. A set of blank lined, dot grid, meal planning, etc. Wonder if the hole punches that they sell would work with this new planner. Then people might be able to make their own pages. Or take the current binder pages for the big binders and trim them down to fit.

[@janablanco3946]

Hopefully they will see how many people were so excited about that extra page and add it in next time!

[@WordWoman111]

You are the best planner reviewer on KZbin, hands down.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Wow, thank you:) You just made me blush and made my day:)

[@vellajames2007]

This is by far the BEST launch day review video I’ve seen! You went over everything in detail and gave a wonderful description of how you use everything!!! Love it!!!!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Wow, thank you! That means so much to hear:)

[@daniellemoody8608]

You are right! That Flora does just scream serenity! And the flora planny pack?!? Gorgeous.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Right?! Oh, that fanny pack...I truly love it:) It might be my favorite fanny pack of all time!

[@jenniferm2294]

I agree I really like the paper. Thanks for putting all the time stamps in the description.

[@AmandasFavorites]

You are so welcome!

[@kich6172]

Thank you for all the work you put into these videos to present the new lineup to us.

[@AmandasFavorites]

You are so welcome:) Thank you for the appreciation.

[@LisaHetrickIndigojadeArt]

Holy smokes! Amanda! I’ve watched this through three times. You are always so thorough and I’m so grateful. I love the Flora everything in that collection. LOVE IT. I noticed on the EC site that it is available in the vertical weekly layout. That makes me so excited. I’ll be using your link for sure. You are amazing! Thank you.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Aw, thanks Lisa:) You have made me feel great today with your kind words:) Yes, flora vertical will be lovely! Thanks again for the support.

[@ProjectHappyHome]

Love your videos, Amanda! I don’t even want an EC and I watched the whole thing. Lol. (Though that new A5 size is calling my name!)

[@AmandasFavorites]

Aw, that is such a nice compliment. Thank you. And the new a5 options have a lot of people re-thinking EC I bet!

[@Kate-dt9gu]

I'll second that A5

[@therogueeducator8452]

I really like the Erin Condren vertical, but I’m ready for them to go back to squared off corners.

[@AmandasFavorites]

It will be interesting to see where that part of the design goes in the next few years. Thanks for watching and chiming in.

[@Kate-dt9gu]

I agree!

[@thislittlebylittlelife]

The flora is just gorgeous and the font is amazing

[@AmandasFavorites]

I agree, they did an amazing job on that. And so different than anything they have done before.

[@julieb2583]

Always excited to see what new info you have for us every Tuesday but TODAY!!! You were the first video that I had up to watch for the EC Launch!!! You are the best! What an awesome assistant too! I love all of the new products and sizes that EC is giving us this year!!!! So excited to see where this growth leads!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Aw, thanks so much Julie:)

[@janablanco3946]

Wow, that flora design and the colors they used for it are stunning!! I wish the weekly pages weren't so neutral though, and that they had carried more color for it into the week, like in the mid century circles. But as it is, I'll have to go with the colorful mid century circles. But I may have to load up on the flora accessories, because wow! As I said, stunning!! I also really love the a5 daily duo! That one is a game changer in my opinion. Fantastic video, Amanda! Thank you for all of your hard work for us!! 💕

[@AmandasFavorites]

I agree that the A-5 and rings are game changers for the company! The flora is stunning:) Thank you Jana:)

[@stephaniemarino4936]

You, hands down have the best walk through videos!! Any questions I have coming into the video, are answer before I leave!! You always help me make my decision when I’m unsure on what planner I want!! 💜 (I’m getting the A5 horizontal this time) Thank you for going through the planners step by step & giving us all the information on everything!! 5 STARS ⭐️ to you!!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Aw, thank you so much Stephanie:) I truly appreciate your kind words!

[@acanaryforone]

Oh my god, I LOVE the A5 Daily Duo! (Thank you for making this video! I have been waiting to see this video for weeks now like a big planner dork.)

[@AmandasFavorites]

Glad you liked it:) The a5 is such a great option! We needed it!

[@Kate-dt9gu]

Planner dorks just like the rest of us! 😂

[@daltonnacraig-crawford7018]

You and your son did such a great job in explaining the planners and other products ! Thank you. I really appreciated it and watched it all.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Aw, thank you:) I am so happy it was helpful!

[@itsalexthegreat]

I really wish they would make an option to have the monthly calendars start on Monday! I don't associate a new week with a Sunday. I like my weekends to be together, not broken up.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for sharing your preference. I understand your feelings;)

[@shawnaford5540]

I like the Sunday start, I find SMTWTFS more appealing visually than MTWTFSS. Also my work history rarely had traditional weekends as days off, so I do agree it is what you are used to and nice to have variety.

[@ShondaB]

Totally agree!!!

[@katelyn888]

I agree!

[@jennacrystalblue2244]

You do the most complete and useful overviews of anyone. Much appreciated.

[@AmandasFavorites]

thank you so much:)

[@catherinedevinewhittle8145]

Amanda - you are absolutely the best source for all things planners and I always use your links to make my purchases. Question for you...do you know if EC will have A5 coiled notebooks? I love the paper so much but would like a notebook a little smaller for work so the A5 size would be perfect for me!!!

[@AmandasFavorites]

They have not shared any plans for those with us. But I hope for them too!

[@doneishastarks883]

My first time watching your video! I really enjoyed it! Also the idea about keeping sticky notes for meal planning❤️

[@AmandasFavorites]

Welcome! Glad it was helpful:)

[@mrmrsboom7253]

I am loosing my mind over this A5 Daily Duo!!! OH. MY. GOODNESS!! Can't wait to order!! Thank you for your aweosme review!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Ah, yay!!! It's such a great option, and I love the size for a daily also:)

[@teelightandsweet]

Greatly appreciate the time and thoughtfulness you put into this video. Definitely the best I've seen! Thank you.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Wow, thank you! Happy It was helpful:)

[@lumareia4758]

Thank you so much for this! I think I'm going with the A5 Daily Duo coiled. I wish it came in the Flora print but I will get some of the Flora stickers and a cover to tide me over for now. I can't wait for launch!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Good choice! Thanks for watching:)

[@ClaudineHickman]

Awesome review, Amanda. Thanks, as always!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thank you so much!

[@OneiricBlur]

I DO NOT NEED ANOTHER PLANNER 😫 lol but i cant resist these beautiful creations 🥰 so i will have to figure out how to fit it in my life haha

[@AmandasFavorites]

LOL:) So many are echoing this same sentiment. You are not alone:)

[@yesiamsharon]

Great work on this walk-through!!! I too love the smell of an EC. I order the 18 month and rip out the extra months so I can get the bigger coil.

[@AmandasFavorites]

I've heard people do that! I am the opposite and like the smaller coil:) Thanks for watching and taking time to chat:)

[@celial09]

The planner nerd in me is freaking out with excitement.. I wanna squeal with excitement but I’ll wake everyone up at home. I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!

[@AmandasFavorites]

LOL:) I love it!!!! Thanks for watching!

[@bkhollyr]

I've watched your release videos for the past few launches and i just LOVE them (my wallet not so much). Thank you for being so thorough and keeping me excited for EC products. I wasn't going to get a planner until the fall but now I think I NEED a Daily Duo because Saturday and Sunday have separate days (my weekends tend to be packed so the one day format was a dealbreaker). So now I'm counting the hours and writing my shopping list!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Glad you like the new DD:) Thanks for supporting me for so long here!

[@melindajune8281]

As always... just the best reviews ever!! Thank you!! Question: I have always been a vertical planner but am going with the A5 coiled Duo for my workhorse this time... and thinking of that gorgeous Flora for memory planning in a horizontal... I don’t know if the A5 or 7x9 boxes would work better... is there anyway you could give me the measurement of either/both?? 🙏🏼🤞🏼

[@AmandasFavorites]

First of all thank you:) Horizontal boxes in the A-5 are 5x1.5 (whole box including small box) and 1.25x1.75 small shaded box. The 7x9 I am giving in cm and you can convert on google bc it was easier to measure that way...16.3x4.4cm (whole big box including small box) 4x4.4cm (small box). Hope that helps! I really wish EC would list out box sizes on their site with products too.

[@fatimahdavis9483]

I enjoy watching your videos. Thank you.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for watching:) Happy Holidays!

[@laurieengels2914]

Amanda, wow, what a great job you did on this video; I have items in my cart already and the new hasn't even dropped yet! Thank you so much for being so thorough and giving us all the important details. Love the launch dates, and your videos are a great help to me!

Thank you for your video and review. I've just bought my very first ever erin condren and I'm Australian. I've been tracking my order many times each day with excitement ☺️

[@AmandasFavorites]

Oh, awesome! All the way to Australia! I hope it arrives quickly and you enjoy every minute of the fun setup:)

[@naomirivas4168]

Thank you for this post! I’ve been wondering about those A5s! 😍 So excited about it being in a Daily option! also.... LOVE LOVE the ring options and now I am torn! I would add my little narrow Sticky checklist notepad to that little pocket in the left. 😍👏🏽 So excited! Thanks again! 💚

[@AmandasFavorites]

Yes, the sticky notepad! Thank you:)

[@HaleyHinman]

Thanks, Amanda! Great info as always. I'm confused about the extra lined page at the end of the week in the daily. Yes, it would be absolutely monumental to have it there to create a week-at-a-glance, but also for continuity. If it's not there in the final product, do the weeks just start over and rotate through? So you'd end up with different days of the weeks on different sides of the page, and Sunday would just flow directly into the following Monday on a facing layout. That just seems like it would end up being messing and confusing to work in. With the extra lined page, it provides a break between weeks where you could conceivably drop in a set of weekly pages right there too.

[@AmandasFavorites]

I agree with you 100% Haley....my understanding is the weeks just flow...and I also worry about how that feels and the days of the week won't be on the same side of the page. I do wish they had sent us the final copies so we could show that. Maybe you can ask EC on one of their instagram posts and they can clarify. I will also copy this comment and email it to my rep at EC and see what she says.

[@lisaandrews7125]

Fantastic video, I wish I could like it more than once! I have definitely watched it more than once. I am wondering if the A5 daily agenda larger/thicker than the daily duo? I like the ability to add to the ring agenda but I like the form factor of the daily duo. Thank you!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Aw, thank you:) The agenda is bigger....about 1.5 inches wider and about .5 inches taller and about the same thickness because it only holds 6 months of Daily Pages.

[@lisaandrews7125]

@@AmandasFavorites Thank you so much for your reply! I just found your channel last week am in the process of binge watching your videos. Your presentation style is outstanding and I really appreciate how you respond to almost all of the comments. Thanks for being awesome!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Aw, thank you Lisa!

[@diamondpainting.by.fairydust]

oh man I got so excited when I saw the extra line page at the end of the week for the DD :( That would be really great thing to add in the futur

[@AmandasFavorites]

I was too....and raved about it in the video. Then had to edit that out late yesterday and re-upload when I got an email that it was a mistake that it was in the media copies:(

[@hollymalanga6225]

If you were interested in the ring agenda, you could add a notes page to your agenda after Sunday. You would be able to use one side for one week and the other side for the other week?

[@ackman3981]

Big surprise, got an EC commercial before viewing this. 😙

[@ackman3981]

One things that sort of "perturbs" me with EC. I know they like to put in their design through out the planner. But if they made them smaller, there would be a lot more room on each page for planning, etc. Same thing I see with the sticky notes. Some of the designs take over it looks like 1/4 of the space. That makes less room for notes, etc. that people write on them.

[@wintersantiago2274]

Yes. Very unnecessary

[@CrossBeforeCrown]

Do you have a video on the vegan leather covered life planner?

[@AmandasFavorites]

I don't. Just the coil bound wit the vegan leather cover? I do own that one (they sent it to me in a Star Wars box I believe). But I haven't done a real review of it. Great idea to do that. Are you in Instagram? I can do a video share there of it soon.

[@CrossBeforeCrown]

@@AmandasFavorites I am! I’ll go look for you! Thanks so much for your response!

[@bchluvr7]

Recently found you and couldn’t be happier! Your voice is soothing! It more importantly you give extremely thorough, honest reviews! I used EC a few years ago and the went to Simplified.....love the EC Flora but it isn’t daily! Such decisions.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thank you Susan:) And the Flora is in daily but only in the ringbound option.

[@samheartsstationery]

Wow! 🤩 Thanks for your video laying out all the options! Questions about the A5 Daily Duo for you: what are the measurements of one of the 6-month planners (Not just length and width but also the depth/thickness)??? Sorry to be so fussy but I would like to know if it will fit in a non-EC leather folio i have. Also, what does one daily duo Planner weigh? Lastly, can i get the daily duo to start in January instead of July? Sorry to be so needy, but as one planner aficionado to another, I know you will understand. 😆 Thanks again for everything you-and your son-do for the planner community! 💜

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thank you Sam for the kind words:) I understand needing to know all this before spending the money;) It is about 1 inch thick. DD weight is 1lb 6oz. And yes you can get the January start DD on launch day:) Happy shopping!

As always a perfect review of all the options- thanks for the note of the note page after Saturday in the DD- I was actually excited about that, however I see it is also in the agenda rings- was that a mistake as well? You are awesome- thanks again!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Let me tell you that I was SUPER excited about that extra notes page per week! I thought it was a game changer for the Daily Duo. And up until yesterday afternoon I thought it was included and I raved about it in the video. But then I got an email from my rep at EC telling us that it was a mistake in the media copies! AH! So last night I had to go in an re-edit my video & re-upload it all last night (and I should have put a caption up in that part too with the rings). So no...there is no extra lined page in any of the daily options:(

[@moneym124]

@@AmandasFavorites DEFINITELY a game changer- I was on board until then😣 I copied your video over on FB in all my groups and everyone is bummed about that extra page.

[@pitbullmomplans]

Why don’t you just take out the last 6 months in the planner you would use? You can do a shout out to see if any shop owners would like a month and some weeks for kit sizing so they could get a head start? But ultimately up to you - just thought I’d throw in my two cents! 😊 also, thank you for such a detailed flip and I love hearing your opinions. They give me such good ideas! So thank you!! 🙏🏻

[@SarahKrans]

I was going to suggest the same! I get an 18-month every year because I plan that far ahead. I just take out the weekly pages for July to December (and add in this year’s May and June so I am not carrying around 2 books!)

[@AmandasFavorites]

That's a great idea...but I have uncoiled once and really don't want to do it again...also I don't want the bigger 18 month coil on my planner. And I don't mind having an extra planner that I don't use becuase I will need it for future videos anyway (I should have said that). But if I didn't need it that is a wonderful idea;)

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for sharing that Sarah! Great idea for those that want the future planning room but not the bulk:)

[@theronaissance]

@@AmandasFavorites maybe raffle it off to your patreons?

Thank you so much for this detailed overview! I know a lot work went into planning and executing this video. I love all the choices! As for what I'd choose, I'm still up in the air -- I do know that I'm a vertical spiral 12-month girl. As for theme I like all three! then colorful or neutral? Oy! What to choose... (sigh!) I love the Flora for its serenity, the mid-century for the flagship design elements, and the Just My Type for it's simplicity. (Sigh!) I love the soft ring binder for its sleek cover design. Perfect for professional users. That empty slot is likely for a long skinny paper pad. I'm with you, that Flora planny pack is gorgeous!

[@Jean2235177]

Part of me wants to chuck the color and extraneous decor and go pen and ink only with the Flora. Its just beautiful! Then another part wants to go colorful with the other options and sticker the living daylights outta my pages (my inner six year old). What to do, what to do!

Thanks for your in depth videos. Kudos to your Assistant also. You've helped me figure out my shopping list. I think I'm going to buy coiled planners in three 7x9 styles MCC-vertical, Flora-horizontal & Just My Type-colorful-vertical. Plus accessories. I am sooo excited! I wish they would offer the Flora in 8-1/2x11 size with other layout options. But maybe if it does well they will in the future. By the way, your video with all the layouts for 2021 was also very helpful. I know its a lot of work but, if you decide to do it again that would help a lot of folks. Especially, because EC does not show all the pages in the layouts on their website so, we look to the Affiliates to help us out. Whatever you decide to do, I appreciate you and have been subscribed since last year. Will use your link for one of my purchases.

Thanks for sharing (and time stamps!). I’m definitely sold on the Flora horizontal after this! I’m tired of the MCC and Flower Power was where I found happiness this year! I was planning on MCC this year because I wanted more color, but Flora is elegant and I can live with it :)

[@AmandasFavorites]

Flora is so elegant, and feels peaceful and calm. Thanks for watching and taking time to chat;)

[@monicaputnammullins8546]

Beautiful I love the changes and May move to an EC this year, thanks!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Oh, awesome:) Thanks for watching and sharing:)

[@tracytrace8644]

Thanks for the video Amanda! You sold me on the flora. I wish they offered it in the DD and A5!!!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Yes, they only offer the flora in rings in the DD. It is beautiful! And you are welcome:)

[@callambert3376]

Thank you for this video! This is just what I needed to see to figure out which one I’m buying!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Glad it was helpful:) Thanks for watching and taking time to chime in:)

[@carolemcwilliams2354]

Thanks Amanda!! Do you happen to know if the inserts for the ring agendas will be available for purchase separately? Thanks!

[@AmandasFavorites]

From all my paper work it looks like a no:( But I really hope I am wrong! It is not showing them for separate purchase on anything I have been given. I would ask on that EC Instagram.

[@heatherabner]

That extra long pocket in the gold agenda, I wonder if that is for one of those skinny sticky notes? Can stick the back cover in there!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Oh, perfect! It would hold that I bet...I need to see if I have one of those I could try;) I bet there are man other things we could also stick in there.

[@lauraatkins7791]

The long pocket is for those long, narrow list pads. There is one that is Focused design and then other ones that go with the current year design.

[@karenkammer7778]

Soooooo excited!!!

[@AmandasFavorites]

YAY:)

[@kimmiller488]

Great video! Thank you for your detailed review. I’ve had all the various planner options except hourly. Last year I switched to the daily duo, which I love! Maybe I’ll try the A5 size this year!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts:) Love the new size option too:)

[@babylove2ism]

I was looking on the website, but I couldn't see if the Daily Duo comes in the Flora color scheme. I know you can get the Flora cover, but I was hoping they had the Duo in the Flora color scheme. Have a I missed something?

[@AmandasFavorites]

Daily Duo coiled does not come in Flora inside....the Daily Duo inserts for the a-5 ring agenda do come in flora. Hope that helps clear it up:)

[@CoolCraftyCreations]

As always, extremely thorough vid! I’ve written down ALL the prices for everything!!! Oh my goodness; so much to choose from! EC has truly stepped there game all the way up! Wow!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Glad it was helpful!

[@caroltrainer8914]

Wondering about the sizes of the boxes in the new A5? Both the full box and the smaller box on the right? Maybe I missed it, but didn't see it....

[@AmandasFavorites]

Full box is 5x1.5 inches....Smaller box is 1.25x1.75inches....might be a tiny off becuase I didn't use cm to measure:)

[@robinst.romain1171]

I Love those pens🖊💜 That Pouch is so beautiful💜🌸

[@AmandasFavorites]

I agree...the Planny Pack is stunning is stunning!

[@sabreen45]

You got me on the daily duo last year. My absolute best purchase. Loved it! So torn if I should get the A5 or original. Decisions! Decisions!

[@AmandasFavorites]

That is a hard decision! If you already love the 7x9 I would stay with that unless you feel like it really is too much space for you;)

[@sabreen45]

@@AmandasFavorites Thank you for the insight! I just put in my order for the A5 because I’m a teacher and I’ve been working from home the whole year. I’ll be starting in-person this week and I know I’ll appreciate a smaller option to lug back and forth. I don’t think I’ll miss the extra space. Your review definitely helped me make that decision!

[@AmandasFavorites]

Oh, good:) I hope you use it and it brings you some joy!

[@tazzsmith5566]

Thank you for a such a great review. You made my decision so easy. I love the A5 coiled just bummed that its only in Mid Century Circles and not Just My Type. Really wish I'd waited on purchasing the fine tip markers, that case is a game changer.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts....and I bet a lot of people are feeling the way you are about the markers and case:(

[@kathrynowens3324]

With the daily duo, I can quit my Google calendar because I hate being tied to my phone. This size can fit in a tote bag so I can take it to work. Love it!

[@AmandasFavorites]

I agree..I hate to be tied to my phone;) Although I do enter events into my ical to help me and for the whole family to view. Yay for the DD!

[@shaunaf2811]

I can't be the only one that has butchered an EC planner to fit it into an A5 binder 😩 The evolution of this brand has been so satisfying to be a part of. I've purchased others but ALWAYS come back to my trusted life planners!

[@AmandasFavorites]

I totally agree:) I always come back to EC:)

[@ackman3981]

Just had another thought. I wonder how long the ivory/white Ring Agenda will stay clean. Or is it that easy to clean?

[@AmandasFavorites]

It seems like it will wipe clean, but I think we will only prove that by watching others who use it day in and day out and see how their agenda fares;)

[@jessicapitchford8313]

Are they not bringing the softbound a5 planners back?

[@AmandasFavorites]

Softbounds launch in the fall because they are calendar year only;)

[@dorothycoyne5197]

Amanda, this was a great review . I have my mind made up for the most part. Thank you very much for making A5 ring binder much clearer to me. I still have 2 questions: what size punch do I get for A5 ring and my writing is a little big. Are spaces between lines much less than regular size planners. Thank you.

[@AmandasFavorites]

Line spacing is about .25inch in the A-5...I feel like it's not too tiny. And I don't know anything about ring punches because I have never used or bought one. But I imagine it is just the standard 6 ring A-5 punch.

[@belindafirley]

Hi Amanda, Thanks again for another wonderful video. Do you know if the Flora is available in the A5 Coiled Life-planner? Thanks so much!

[@lauraatkins7791]

The A5 Coiled Weekly comes in both MCC and Flora. The A5 Coiled Daily Duo only comes in MCC.

[@belindafirley]

Thanks so much! xx

[@AmandasFavorites]

I am glad Laura chimed in because the chart I have doesn't show Flora in A-5 Coiled...but a new chart EC put up have it on there...so hopefully it is going to be there:)

[@belindafirley]

@@AmandasFavorites , Thanks so much! I will have to check out their website again! xx
