Customizing my A5 Ring Agenda | Planner Sections | Adding Petite Planner Inserts

[@kat1008]

This hack for using the Petite Planners as A5 inserts is pure GENIUS! There aren’t many people that won’t see how this elevates the Agenda beyond coil-bound by enabling ultimate personalized planning experience. Thank you so much for taking the time to show your clever tips and tricks, showing us every step. Amazing! 💛 Erin needs you on her payroll ✅✨

[@saraybailey]

Haha! Glad this was helpful for you!

[@karenethridge427]

I just purchased rings for the first time….now I can use my petites! Awesome job showing us how to cut and put in to the agenda! Brilliant!!

[@saraybailey]

You are so welcome!

[@planningwithgg]

I wholeheartedly agree with EC making the wellness, gratitude, meal planner, and budget pages into inserts. It would make things so much easier and allow further customization for those of us who are faithful EC planner users and the love the A5 rings. My SSB was delivered yesterday and the daily journal pages would also make great A5 inserts.

[@saraybailey]

You know what is funny? EC just came out with budget inserts! I can't wait to see the future additions to the agenda line.

[@naturalbamagirl]

@@saraybailey Yep I was just about to say they came out with A5 Budget inserts today

[@StephPlansInTheOC]

@@saraybailey How many months are the EC Budget Inserts? I did see them on the website, but they weren’t clear about how many months it’s good for

[@CurlsRock1]

Wow I never thought about converting petite planner pages into A5. What a great win!

[@simplymerrion4823]

This is awesome! I found the answer to my question about the wellness inserts in this video!

[@outaview]

I really like the way you set up your agenda. Very nice.

[@diannapeller7884]

Love this! Great idea putting in the petites. Also love how you snip the pages so you can move your inserts like they're on discs!

[@saraybailey]

Thanks so much! 😊 Makes a huge difference.

[@catiejohnson7910]

@@saraybailey I snip mine too and it is such a time saver

[@amymcneil4479]

Thank you for this video. Been debating making the switch to A5 but didn’t want my petites to not be used. Totally doing this technique and purchasing me an A5 ring binder. 😍😍😍

[@saraybailey]

Glad it was helpful!

[@suzanne5433]

Thank you so much for this video!! I learned so many things I can't wait to use in my rings planner

[@sahibkaur446]

you could punch the petite planner inserts and then cut !! that’s what i used to do with my unbound text books!!

[@catiejohnson7910]

Yassss I would love for all the petite planners to be inserts. Like the shopping list.

[@saraybailey]

I hope so too! The budget inserts are now available so I think is only a matter of time until more are added.

[@catiejohnson7910]

@@saraybailey I did not see those last time I was online. I’ll need to go look!

[@patsycathcart1]

I really needed this. I have an A5 and wanted to make it more useful. Your ideas and customizations are wonderful! ❤️

[@saraybailey]

Glad it was helpful!

[@yvettehopkins9397]

Thank you… I just ordered the EC agenda ring planner and I liked your set up and cutting of the pages for easy access to remove pages to decorate and write on.

[@saraybailey]

Glad it was helpful!

[@staceymaurstad6930]

Wow! This was extremely helpful!! Thank you- great job! I think I’m going to try the A5 now with some petite planners!

[@saraybailey]

[@gracielovespaper4197]

Love the sett up, everything looks so nice😍😄

[@saraybailey]

Thank you! 🤗

[@romoplans]

Love this! I picked up the blush daily agenda during the BF sale and am excited to start it.

[@saraybailey]

Oh yay! I really like the agenda, hope you end up loving it too. It’s so pretty.

[@catherineshea8638]

Such great ideas! I’ve used the petite planner the most, tried the binder but it was too big for everyday/work…I’m so excited to start the A5 and now I know I can combine the two!! Best of both worlds!!

[@saraybailey]

Yes! Definitely the best of both worlds. I did the binder for a while but it wasn’t as flexible.

[@brysonwest93]

O yeah, the dividers should definitely be at the bottom! (Smacks head). That's where they're easiest to see and easiest to use fingers on. Love the video. TFS.

[@saraybailey]

Yes! I love keeping them on the bottom. So much easier.

[@kristinastonge7189]

Thanks for watching, Lea!

[@wendyhoward2699]

Love this idea. Blessings.

[@saraybailey]

Thank you! 😊

[@HanCanPlan]

I have the flora agenda for next year too. I can’t decide if I am going to use that or my coiled DD. But this definitely is tempting me……

[@saraybailey]

I've been on the same fence for like a month now but if I look at my track record, the agenda has helped me more.

[@HanCanPlan]

@@saraybailey that is good to hear - I haven't really given it a chance because I have loved the coil. But I think I will for the next quarter. And bringing these petites into the mix makes me even more excited!

[@lam8772]

Hi, would you mind if I ask which fiskars cutter this is? I want to make sure I order the correct one. BTW I am Cuban too and just saw your previous post.. really touching & love/ appreciate that you spread awareness on the matter.

[@saraybailey]

Of course! Thank you. I use the 1/2 inch puncher. This is the link: amzn.to/3nowju9

[@VidaWithV]

Ohhhh man Saray 🙈 I love this! I may do this.

[@saraybailey]

It's working so well for me and I love it! If you do decide to do it, let me know how it works out for you!

[@NenaKPlans]

So cute!!!

[@saraybailey]

Thank you!

[@christinebeaver5237]

Love your mani!

[@saraybailey]

Thanks so much!

[@MissGammons]

Beautiful setup. Thanks for the tip to cut the slits on each page. I have ruined a Kikki k rings by constantly opening and closing.

[@saraybailey]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jennycarroll9940]

Can you show how you rounded the corners? I like the look.

[@saraybailey]

I will. I will be adding my MakseLife inserts and those need to be rounded. Video will be up soon!

[@ginacurtice9241]

Thanks for sharing

[@saraybailey]

Thanks for watching!

[@mayelamontenegro-urch4380]

Love this video! I used the agenda for a month (I was only using the calendar and a few notes pages), but then became bored with it and decided to move back to my coiled daily duo. Also, after the end of the month, I wanted to keep my daily inserts but didn’t like the idea of just throwing them away or putting them loose-leaf in a box, making the coiled daily duo a more attractive option as a keepsake. (I also have a weekly that I use for memory keeping, but still did not want to throw away the daily pages.) Can you show your system on what to do with the completed daily or other pages once the month has ended? Feeling inspired by your system!

[@saraybailey]

Thank you! Yes - I will do a walk through of the completed pages. I don't think I've done that before. It'll be nice to see it all together.

[@ForMiniMe]

LOVE this video and the setup!! Just discovered you.. Awesome!! Do you mind sharing a link for your A5 punch? Thank you so much!! (:

[@michellechang5195]

Do you know where I can just get monthly calendar inserts that will fit the a5 planner?

[@amandas.9116]

Can I ask what did you use to cut the holes to pull out- scissors or a craft knife? I’m going to do that with mine! Fab idea!

[@amandas.9116]

Fab, saw it is craft scissors so I’ve ordered some.

[@jessicasalyer7116]

I love this set up. What did you use to make the gold labels on the divider? Thanks!

[@saraybailey]

I made them using my silhouette cameo and gold foiled them.

[@tami1796]

❤️

[@jamieschimers5218]

I wish EC sold the A5 agenda without the planner inserts and sold all the petites as inserts 😐 hopefully soon.

[@saraybailey]

🤞 Some of the inserts are already available, like the budgeting set.

[@amberhill7427]

Where can I order this planner I like it

[@lindserito]

The little sticker icons are so cute! Where do you get those?

[@saraybailey]

I've been purchasing from Sweet Caress Designs.

[@tawandam.3955]

Will the divider labels be available in your shop?

[@saraybailey]

Hi! I have a few extras from when I made mine maybe I'll list them but they take a little more work so I'm not sure yet.

[@icorchado25]

What did you use to make your edges round

[@saraybailey]

This is the cutter I used - amzn.to/3RMRZfB

[@cellofly1474]

Do u keep ur agenda at home or do u carry it with u daily

[@saraybailey]

Since I work from home, it is mostly at home but I take it out from time to time if I'm going on appointments or have a really busy day outside the house.

[@michelleperlick8762]

What are you using for the dividers between you petite planners sections ?

[@saraybailey]

Those dividers are from Cloth and Paper but I just flipped them upside down so the tabs are at the bottom.

[@MichelleTurnz]

Not a fan if EC but your very creative

[@DColl17]

Hands down one of the best planner videos ive watched all year! Wish i knew about your set up before buying all my petite planners and folios.. might have to buy an agenda and steal your idea!! Thanks for posting!

[@saraybailey]

Oh wow! That means so much! Thank you for watching and I hope you love the set up if you decide to go for it. It's working so well for me.
