2017 Erin Condren Planner Tour

 

Hello Planner Pals!

I'm thrilled to be sharing the new 2017 Erin Condren Planner with you today.

Now onto my thoughts about the 2017 planner!

NEW FEATURES I LOVE

There are many new features this year that I quickly loved.

The watercolor theme is beautiful, and I really like that the monthly sections are monochromatic with different shades of one color.

It's also really nice that the clear pouch is loose from the planner but can still be added into the planner if you use the free adhesive coil that came with it.

This way when 2017 is over, you can take the pouch out and use it for something else.

The two new wet erase sections on the inside of the covers are also fantastic.

I think I will need the wet/dry erase markers for this.  

FEATURES I'M GLAD DID NOT CHANGE

Many things stayed the same, as well.

Thankfully the acrylic ruler was again included in the price this year.

I like to detach it and put it in my pocket to mark my budget lines each month.

See my video for details on what I mean.

I'm also grateful that the daily section headings are still blank so I can customize them myself along with several other blank headings through out the planner.

In addition, there is still extra space at the bottom of each day where I can menu plan without taking one of my three daily sections.

FEATURES I MISS

Some things that I wish had stayed the same from 2016?

I wish the personalization was still free on the front cover.

Now it's $5 more. I also wish the 2 pockets were made the same.

They are super cute, but I hope they hold up as well as my current planner pockets.

Time will tell.

COST AND REFERRAL

With the bare minimums, an Erin Condren Life Planner will run about $50 shipped this year.

That entails one of the 40+ standard designs, a platinum coil, and no name on the cover.

Shipping runs about $10, but new customers using our referral code get $10 off. 

REASONS IT'S WORTH IT

Is the planner worth $50? I say yes.  

One, it is super sturdy. I use mine daily and it needs to hold up to the constant use.  

Two, there are so many beautiful designs and layouts. You can pick the one that best suits you.

Three, there are so many blank pages to customize, and I have personally used these pages to streamline our home budget. The money I have saved by getting our budget on paper has saved me the cost of this planner and hundreds more! 

Four, this planner has space enough to organize many parts of my life, not just my schedule. I include meal planning, blogging plans, life goals, budgets, and much more in my planner. This has saved money and sanity.  

Five, this is a great crafty outlet. You don't have to be uber-crafty with your planner, but you can be if you want. It's a great little hobby if you are looking for a way to play with markers, paper, stickers, washi tape, etc. in a confined little space. 

Six, all the freebies that come with this planner are happy bonuses. Not many companies spoil us like that.  

And seven, there are fun EC communities on social media to keep you inspired.
