plan with me | sterling ink weeks

[@DonnaMcBroomTheriot89]

Hi! I am a Sterling Ink user. I use the goal-setting pages to list the yearly renewals that we have - insurance, subscriptions, etc. Then on the (I covered up the words) next pages with months, I use this to track pain and the coordinating months to the left, I write doctor appointments and information I want to discuss with them. On top of the month listings where I track pain, I write doctor appointments. I really like using these pages. I like looking at a glance to see renewals and then my medical tracking.

[@JuliesPlans]

oh thank you for the ideas! that's super helpful!

[@dannimack1020]

I am loving my Sterling Weeks. New for me. I tried the Hobo cousin last year and I liked it but i didn't use the daily pages and feel like I wasted my planner. Excited this year to see how I use all those pages in the back!

I live in Northern California (PG&E) shuts over power off regularly after the wildfires of 2017. Invest in a whole house generator. Best money we ever spent!

[@JuliesPlans]

definitely the plan for us within the next year!

[@wendyhoward2699]

I enjoy watching your videos so much--when you used stickers and the way you do it now. Many, many blessings.

[@bad_anima]

I love your chatty plan with me videos!

[@tammyd4208]

Yay! A sterling ink planner & in Texas! 🙌🙌 I’m in the B6 but contemplating using the Weeks next year. ❤

[@SIMulatedSara]

I love you planning style, simple yet (IMO) very aesthetically pleasing. I'm also in my Sterling Ink era, I am using a system of 6 planners/notebooks from them this year and 2 are the Weeks size. So far I really love my SI planners. I started a YT channel recently, and posted a video where I go in depth about how I'm using each book. But I have the A5 for my reading journal, the B6 for my catchall planner, a B6 notebook to be my planner companion, the passport to be a line a day memory keeper, a horizontal Weeks as my writing planner, and a vertical Weeks as my social media planner. Hope you're enjoying and settling into your planners. And enjoy your fireplace 🔥

[@JuliesPlans]

Thank you so much!

[@jacquelone]

Yea it was bad that year. Praying that doesn’t happened again. Felt like we were in a movie trying to survive the cold! 😂

[@JuliesPlans]

I was just watching some videos about it and OMG! 🙏🏼 we don’t have a part two!

[@kits.plans.1443]

i’ve tried both the TWSBI Eco in fine and extra fine and i’ve found that they’re not as thin as i would like no matter what planner i’m in- and i’ve tried them in both the B6 Common Planner, the Hobonichi Weeks, and the A6 HON. i think it’s just the way they’re made, honestly; i much prefer Pilot’s fountain pens in terms of how thin their nibs are.

[@JuliesPlans]

glad it's not just me!

[@MegsGotAPlan]

Casually listening and hearing a P&W shoutout 🥰😘

[@JuliesPlans]

everyone should experience it!

[@donnaeye8781]

Julie, you have the most infectious laugh.. I love it!!

[@JuliesPlans]

Oh thank you!

[@connieanderson6339]

I always enjoy watching your videos! Thanks for sharing!

[@JuliesPlans]

Thank you so much!

[@agnese.salamcreative]

New Sterling ink user here! Initially I intended to use the weeks size (excited not to have the weeks yellow paper and quotes anymore... and those cover colours I never really liked) but then I ended up buying the Sterling ink standard TN size off a destash and I am loving it. Just like a hobo weeks on steroids lol I love a bit of negative space. Your video reminded me I completely ignored the goal setting pages, maybe I'll go have a look, especially given that it is my personal/shop planner...

[@grannatwat9974]

Yes, I live here in Texas, and it was really bad.

[@michellecobet]

Julie, the ink in your TWSBI Eco could be the culprit of the thick lines. What ink are you using? I would try using other inks before giving up on that pen in the CP. 😊

[@JuliesPlans]

It’s definitely the pen. I have three fountain pens with the same Archive ink and this one writes differently than the others.

[@Coffeeplanz]

HI Julie hope all is well. How did you print out the book stickers. Thank you

[@buttercup_plans2896]

im using the sterling ink weeks! so far, i love it! however, i did prefer the hard cover of my hobo weeks. Also, i got the vertical weeks, and im struggling. I thought i would love it. Using the horizontal layout in the hobo weeks took some getting used to because i had always used vertical. But after using the weeks for a year, i got so used to the layout that im struggling going back 😂

[@JuliesPlans]

The vertical weeks looks so cool but I knew it wasn’t for me 🤣

[@CheposDaughter]

I just found your channel 😊 love your office need some inspiration for mine can you do an office tour

[@SunnyTangerine19]

I am here for the planner chat and chaos and Loki 🥰😂 Thanks for keeping it real, Julie. I always look forward to your videos! Also, I did not get a Sterling Ink planner because I didn't like the way the paper behaves with my fountain pen ink 😞 the new Sanzen TRP has not been treating me well 😢

[@JuliesPlans]

I'm hearing so many mixed reviews on the new paper!

[@alexandriamunoz2596]

When I started using my N2 I started off with a TWSBI extra fine and for me it was still too thick. I didn't like it. I wanted to cuz Ive always wanted a fountain pen. Now Im using a uni jet stream 0.5 and it's working.

[@JuliesPlans]

it's crazy how thick the ink comes out. I had to go back to my jet pens order make sure I ordered the right fountain pen hahahah!

[@Butterflies.and.Tulips]

I got the Sterling Ink version of the weeks this year also. But then Dec 23 I decided to order a Cousin and so I’m not sure I should have gotten it. Oh well - live and leave !

[@lovelyrita75]

Stick the Muji ink in your Sarasa pen. It's amazing. Also, try the 0.38 mm Muji pen. I'm finding that super fine pens are making me very happy on the S-TRP.

[@JuliesPlans]

Great idea!

[@cls3282]

Did I know you were in Texas?! I think theres a handful of TX plantubers now, would be so cool to do a meetup! 2021 was roooough. Still refer to it as "The Snowpocolypse". It looks like this year itll be cold but no snow, so hopefully the grid doesn't crumble this time 🤞🤞

[@JuliesPlans]

keeping all of my fingers crossed! Yes I'm just outside the Dallas area!

[@40isfab87]

So can we talk about that cover !!!!! Love it

[@JuliesPlans]

Isn’t it gorgeous?!

[@beccaplans]

Ooh How did you get the book images so small and all the same size?! I love that.

[@JuliesPlans]

If you have a canon ivy, go to collages, page 4 and there is one with 4 boxes that perfect for book covers! If you go back a couple of videos to my photo printing video, I show you there how to do it 🤗

[@beccaplans]

@@JuliesPlans I don't. I have the Kodak Zink printer.

[@Ree29Ree]

Where did you get the pencil case

[@farmgirlwithacurl5300]

What size Randidotplans icons are you using mini, tiny or large?

[@JuliesPlans]

I went with tiny!

[@farmgirlwithacurl5300]

Thanks for the info! I really appreciate it. BTW is there any way you can post a video daily? I go through withdrawals on your current schedule, lol. Just love you videos!

[@definitely_katie_]

“I am not some people.” 😂😂 Had to pause and comment-I am trying to not be “some people” because I think that repetitive habit tracking across multiple planners helps me be more consistent & successful! Or at least that’s my theory 🤣

[@deborah5578]

Do you have link for the stickers for tracking sleep

[@JuliesPlans]

no link but they are from Randi dot plans on Etsy!

[@brieanap]

Love the rearrangement of the habit tracker. I’m always so annoyed with not having the words aligned, and it’s such a simple fix. Definitely stealing this one! 😂

[@JuliesPlans]

right? I was like why wasn't I already doing this lol

[@plancreatecope]

If I buy the Cream ECO, I could get the EF and we could trade.

[@planwithkellye2926]

That grid thing suckedddddddd. Houston was NOT READY. It was 70 one day and 19 the next 🥴

[@JuliesPlans]

oh my goodness! that's a HUGE temp change!
