Transformer Planner 2019 - Happy Planner

[@perfectlycoiffed05]

Ah...now I get it! I wondered why people buy multiple planners but with this method it becomes much more practical! Great video

[@ReadySetRia]

Thanks! I love this method!

[@sashataylor5576]

This is super cool and practical and the flips and it being a full planner every time sooo satisfying

[@ReadySetRia]

Agree 100%! That flip is so satisfying! I think that’s what was so appealing to me about the Transformer planner.

[@lenicelacourdia]

Finally somebody who does it right out of all thousands of frankenplanners, your's is the absolute best! Now I got an understanding on how to do it and your tutorial is literally well thought out!

[@ReadySetRia]

La Courdia, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I love this style planning, and I’m so thankful for your compliment!

[@madnessofmymind]

Who's definition makes one right or wrong?

[@MsVawa]

This is the best transformer video I’ve seen! I’m new to the planning community and was in awe when I saw the transformer planner! You explained and demonstrated it beautifully! Great job!

[@ReadySetRia]

MsVawa, Thank you so much! I’m so glad you liked it!!! I absolutely love planning this way!

[@rebeccasuraci7666]

This is actually super cool. And I don’t even like HP much bc I don’t like rings. But also metal ones now? I can be converted yet! Now I feel a splurge coming on .

[@ReadySetRia]

Rebecca, I’ve moved away from HP a few times, and I always find myself coming back to them! I just love their designs and stickers and the whole community! HP splurges are something I know very well, lol!!

[@sweetteacher79]

I love this! I agree, quarterly sounds more practical and more likely that you'll keep up with it!

[@ReadySetRia]

Angie Nunez I’m pretty sure I’m sticking with quarterly for 2020 as well...unless I add more planners to my Transformer Planner for 2020, which is always a possibility, lol! Thanks for watching!

[@TeachPlanGo]

I'm a new subscriber and fellow tuber! Thank you for your step-by-step instructions!

[@ReadySetRia]

So glad you’re here! The Transformer confused me when I first saw it, so I had to break it down! 😄 I’m heading over to your channel now!

[@CallMeNains]

I’ve done this for years. Loving to be able to carry all of the planners I need, but just have one planner to carry. Loved it! Mine had two monthly/weekly spreads (one for regular plans and one for work and social media), a budget section, meal plan section, and notes. Always called it my Franken-Planner-Stein! Lol

[@ReadySetRia]

HeatherLynn Newton, that’s amazing that you’ve been doing this for years! It blew my mind the first time I saw it, and I knew I had to take on this method! I love your sections, too.

[@janicedarmody6253]

Awesome- just what I need!!! THANKS so much!!❤️

[@ReadySetRia]

Hi, Janice! Glad you found what you needed here! 😍

[@brendabrown8154]

Thank you for showing step by step setting up your transformer planner. I have seven planners and see this is awesome. Thank you for sharing!

[@ReadySetRia]

Brenda, thanks! It was my pleasure to share! Wow, I'd love to see a Transformer Planner that comes from seven different planners! That would be awesome! :)

[@HBkaleecee]

I love so many of your ideas. I live in my planners. This will be the first year I have a HP though and I hope to use only 2 planners. I am older now, but when all 6 kids were at home and adding in having our 6 foster kids, I had to make my own designs for many portions of my planners to fit that many kids. Then I also color coded each child because it was more efficient to just use dots of color instead of their full name, LOL. Thanks for inspiring me to get my planners filled with such fun things.

[@ReadySetRia]

~ Kimmer, wow! Sounds like you have an amazing family! I will have 3 little ones come February, and I already feel the desperate need for planning! Color coding is a great idea, I love that!

[@YaranisFranchesca]

So far my favorite transformer planner thus far. Thank You!

[@ReadySetRia]

Yaranis, thanks for much for the compliment!

[@Kerisu_haven]

Love your step by step tutorial and such a life saver! Great job and keep these videos coming 🥰

[@aekfuturewriter13]

Love this! I’m definitely going to try this for my two 2019 planners! Thank you for this!

[@amznforest]

Ashley, absolutely! So glad you found it inspirational! I can’t wait to start using this in 2019!

[@barbarahairston4749]

Best video ever on the "transformer"! You explained & demo for us to understand, excellent job! The original creator & other planner babes videos are great but, they didn't give a step by step tutorial! You're a rockstar , thanks for your patience! Blessings😍

[@ReadySetRia]

Barbara, I’m so glad you found this video helpful! I loved making it, and explaining how I was able to put mine together. Thanks for your compliment; you made my day!

[@specialk8927]

Two months would be nice too. I've seen a video of it but didn't know what it was called. I noticed I could use my deluxe cover to do this. I would have to leave the deluxe cover off. Great video

[@ReadySetRia]

Special K, have you tried it with your deluxe cover? I’d love to know if it works!

[@florentinalela474]

Hello ,I just found your channel and I absolutely love your video,I need one of this transformer planner to keep track of all the important dates for my 11 children! Thank you very much for sharing this beautiful video ! May God bless you!

[@emilyrogers3271]

The transformer idea is really cool!

[@marialowery914]

love this, because although I liked the frankenplan, i loved some other covers on the other Happy Planners so was having a hard time on what to do. So this way to organize my planners is definitly a life saver for me !!!

[@HBkaleecee]

Hi again... Love watching your videos! This will be my first year using a Happy Planner. And I wanna love this way of setting up a planner. But, it seems like too much bulk. I have always been a "everything within one month" type planner person. I made my own inserts for budget, meals, to-do lists, etc that all fit into a monthly section (each month would have 6 or so pages extra inserted right behind the individual weeks sheets so everything is accessible for a complete month within a minimal amount of pages),. Then a simple divider between each month. I am not so sure I would like having to flip to a completely separate section to add something to a list. I get excited watching all you wonderful "planner ladies", it makes me wish I could afford several planners and embrace bulkiness. Thanks for sharing, I really enjoyed this video.

[@ReadySetRia]

~ Kimmer, you definitely have a super efficient way of planning, and I love the idea of that! I’ve planned in similar ways previously. The transformer is a bit bulkier, like you mentioned, but one of the major appeals to me is the designs and covers of the Happy Planners! The colors and decorations just make me happy and encourage me to open my planners again, day after day! I spent all of 2018 in Personal Rings and I’m ready for a new system! 📒

[@LipstickDiary]

Def trying this. I only have a teacher planner this year because I couldn’t figure out how to have a second one without carrying too much!

[@lifewithvalerie21]

New subscriber here. I am wanting to set up my July lineup of Planners as a transformer Planner. I’ve been trying to figure it out and what I need and don’t need. And then I keep going back to “do I really want them all in one planner? The struggle is real. Thanks for sharing! ❤️ Hopefully by now you have a beautiful baby here! Congrats mama.

[@ReadySetRia]

Nate’sMom Plans , I totally get it!! There’s always so much I want to keep in my planner!

[@heba4434]

Love the idea. I want to definetly want to combine the teacher planner and something else to separate my personal life with my career. I will definetly do it for the new upcoming school year.

[@ReadySetRia]

hebeola90, That sounds like a great idea! Combining work and personal sounds like the perfect way to stay organized!

[@Simplyplanning]

I'm totally rethinking my planner setup after watching your transformer planner vid! The colors are AMAZING 💖💎✨

[@ReadySetRia]

Simply Planning, right?! I love the colors of these planners, too! The matching sticker books are also amazing with these colors!

[@SouthernTeeTime]

Great video. I love your lineup. Thanks for sharing. Congrats on the soon to be new bundle of joy that is due soon.

[@calisiakelley4993]

Those are gorgeous planners!

[@shariidriggins3686]

Great job!!!!

[@ReadySetRia]

Thanks so much!! Hope you liked the video!

[@donutcare9680]

Love this!

[@ReadySetRia]

DonutCare, thanks!! Hope you give it a try!

[@trailhiker53]

Great idea and so pretty!

[@ReadySetRia]

Virginia, my pleasure! I hope you find some inspiration for your own planners!

[@whimsylinsayplans4388]

Thanks for the shout girl, love it! ❤️

[@ReadySetRia]

Of course! Thanks for the idea!!

[@colombepetite]

I feel like THIS is what the Happy Planner is all about.

[@DR17dede]

Great video. I feel like you don’t need the back of each planner. So just insert the cover page followed by all your pages. The next cover page inserted would be enough to divide it while reducing the bulk.

[@thatstotallythea]

You did a FABULOUS job!!! Thank you for sharing and you just gained a new subscriber. Your video was practical, your voice is calming and the timing was perfect. Enjoy your new "TRANSFORMER" planner and have a healthy and happy 2019 with your new baby. :)

[@ReadySetRia]

Tropical Teacher, thank you so much for that amazing compliment! I’ll strive to continue to make great videos on this channel! Hope you stay tuned!!

[@ashleylove2914]

This was amazing!!!

[@ReadySetRia]

Ashley Love , Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed!!

[@planningtoplan6532]

What is this sorcery?! 🤯and how have I not seen this before?! 😂 I'm so doing this!

[@ReadySetRia]

S Mo! 😂 I’m so glad you found this sorcery!! It blew my mind when I found it, too! Hope you have fun with your Transformer Planner!

[@planningtoplan6532]

@@ReadySetRia my mind was blown lol i happened to see a preview of the video as I was scrolling through KZbin and I was like "how is she flipping and all these planners are popping up in one". I had to like and subscribe...Magical lol ..thanks for sharing! I

[@ReadySetRia]

S Mo, so glad the preview caught your eye! 🥰

[@Reddtoopretty]

Wow this is a mind blowing technique. I personally only purchase extension packs but now there is no need 😅😂

[@brandyturner643]

OMG!!! I love it!!!

[@ReadySetRia]

Brandy Turner , Thanks! I fell in love, too! Such a cute and practical way to keep planners together!

[@risingtideliftsallboats6042]

Super Helpful Video! I'm new to the Happy Planner world. Holy Smokes this could get addicting!!! This is my favorite; combining planners! It has been hard to decide the best way to set up my planner when I like SO MANY pieces of several different planners. I chose the Large planner because my handwriting is terrible and I am former teacher/forever a teacher. :) I loved my teacher planning book. I'm in Ed Software/IT now and have tried "business" planners and none have fit my needs. I'm looking forward to using the Happy Planner. I want all things in one place: work, family, "me". Any advice and tips and tricks is welcomed!

[@ReadySetRia]

Ronda, this is definitely a fun and addicting way to plan. 😁 I really hope you find your Planner Peace with the Happy Planner. It’s one of my favorite planner systems!

[@brotherbloat36]

This is so amazing 😢😍 Thanks for sharing!!

[@nataliemercado]

Those clear protectors are hard to find. Ever consider selling them?

[@kipahmtp5846]

Great ideas👍

[@ReadySetRia]

Kipah MTP, Thanks! I’m really going to rely on this system to keep me organized in 2019!!

[@karyfuentes8941]

Thank you. Life saver.

[@ReadySetRia]

Kary Fuentes, Thanks for checking out this video! This was a total life saver for me, too!

[@Khanslady]

Yay! Love it

[@ReadySetRia]

Sabi, thanks! I love this version of a planner now!

[@rockellecosmetics6195]

Cute I love the idea

[@jmatos7872]

Great video! New subbie!!!

[@ReadySetRia]

Netty, thanks! So glad you’re here! 😁

[@angieleo2021]

Such a great video, I love this

[@ReadySetRia]

ANGIE FOY, thanks so much! I’m really loving this style of planning!

[@ruz7951]

How adorable...you think you'll have time to plan after your baby is born. Hahahahaha.

[@ReadySetRia]

CaliJo951, I have high hopes!! People can still plan with one free hand, right?? 😆 I’ll plan when he naps, maybe...? Doing the laundry, cooking, and cleaning are so overrated, am I right?! Planners gonna plan!

[@nataliemercado]

Definitely. She will have to plan! Time will need to monitor her time and the only way is by planning.

[@bookedplans]

Omg I just found your channel (love it!) and I'm using the same three planners in 2019 AND am pregnant and due Jan 30! (Having a girl though). So wild!

[@ReadySetRia]

Alexis, that is wild! Did we just become best friends?! (Sorry, Step Brothers reference 😆) Big congrats on your baby girl! I’ll race ya to the finish! And aren’t those planners great?? Talk soon!

[@tori.doe.]

Awww I’m due Feb 7 with my little baby girl! Congrats to you! Am considering grabbing the Healthy Hero as well so I can jump start my post baby self care and healthy routine. Wishing you a happy delivery 🤰👶

[@ReadySetRia]

Tori, congrats!! All these little Aquarius babies! I hope you have a safe and easy delivery, too! And yes, I'm putting all my faith into planning with the Healthy Hero and losing this weight! I know this little boy is big, but he doesn't weigh 40 pounds, lol!

[@LifeBetweenTheDash]

Cute... Cute... Cute

[@DejaDrewit]

Wow combining them is brilliant but isn’t that get expensive?? And time consuming lol but how smart!

[@ReadySetRia]

DejaDrewit, yes, it definitely can get pricey if you’re purchasing 3 or 4 Happy Planners to make this work. It’s definitely not a planning method if someone is looking to plan on a budget. The good news is that Michaels and Joann’s often have sales that make these planners totally affordable! I only wait for the big sales, like BOGOs, to get my supplies.

[@courtneyhardy8720]

this seems like Franken planning repackaged. am I wrong about that, can someone help me understand?

[@ReadySetRia]

Courtney, you’re right, it’s very similar to Franken Planning. The main difference is that you keep the original covers to all your planners and keep the inserts of the planners all separate as well. My understanding of Franken Planning is just keeping the inserts from several different planners, and not all of the covers. I hope that helps! There are also some good videos on the difference between Franken Planning and the Transformer Planner on KZbin!

[@ArtsyCupcake]

Great ideas! I am doing a planner giveaway over on my channel through the end of the year!

[@ReadySetRia]

Artsy Cupcake, Thanks for the compliment! I’ll be sure to check out your giveaway!

[@DH-fo1uw]

Do they have any less feminine designs. I love these sets ups but they're too feminine for me

[@ReadySetRia]

D H , I’ll agree that most of their designs are pretty feminine. There are some that are more minimalistic and don’t have as much decoration on the inside and those may be more your style. I suggest looking up Happy Planners at Michaels, Joann’s, Hobby Lobby, and the Happy Planner website to check out all of their designs!

[@XIIxMysticxIIX]

the happy planner uses a discbound system, there are other brands that are plainer and don't have such decorative covers. You could also make your own out of cardstock and have them laminated, but you would have to hole punch them yourself. Each brand has their own hole punchers (I believe there are some "universal" ones too) or you can use a single hole puncher just by matching it to an original page then using scissors to cut little slits from the punched holes to the edge of the paper/cover. there are tutorials on youtube for this too! Personally I love the happy planner covers and dividers so I'll be keeping them to use over and over (laminating the dividers) to save trees. And then i bought the hole punch to make my own refills! There are probably covers sold on Etsy!

[@gingersmith6024]

I saw some “make it yourself” cover sleeves at Hobby Lobby.

[@christinesrikala4755]

Good content..I’m sorry...but the music is loud and distracting.

[@ReadySetRia]

CHRISTINE, thank you so much for the feedback! I will definitely turn the music down in future videos in hopes it will be a soothing background next time! That’s such a big help!

[@madnessofmymind]

Let's call it by it's real name....frankenplanning.
