Planner 2027

12th Oct (Mon)

the 5 months interval in between 说明了 how not motivated and not inspired am i with next year's planner... 

thanks to these two notepads that i received from HS this cher's day... i knew i will not 舍得 to use it as a daily to-do list cos my usual go to for this function is a stack of reused paper that i can just anyhow scribble on and cross out without feeling that i had 浪费这大好美纸... 


剪剪 黏黏 贴贴 and jan is done on this wfh psle marking day... 😍😍😍

Pink stickers & washi tapes for a pink Mother's Day month in May... 





surprisingly.... it's not as fun decorating with stickers... 😅😅😅


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

12th May (Tue)

has always love stickers since i was a little girl ... my favourite was the furry ones during primary school days, used stickers as decorations in my homework organisors in secondary school till uni days, still luvs looking at them now and will buy them as little gifts for my kiddos... 


these 'thematic' stickers & washi tapes sets at Mr DIY in Batam were really cute & cheap, less than S$2 per box so on the spot decided that Planner 2027 shall be sticker & washi tape theme to give me a valid reason to BUY them... 😍😍😍



bought these square grids exercise books at Muji in Tokyo thinking that they would be suitable as Planner 2027...   


"since it will be decorated with stickers & washi tapes, the pages need not be thick" i thought... 

wrong, wrong, wrong, terribly wrong!!! in my excitement at seeing a square grid book at a low price of 120 yen at the end of a long cold day, i forgot that i will need to draw lines, write words & numbers in the planner too... 

the pages are so thin that i can only use colour pencils to add on to the designs in this book; markers and even gel pens will bleed through... 😭😭😭



orange colour stickers must be use for the month that's associated with oranges and Feb shall be the month since CNY will be celebrated on 6th and 7th Feb in 2027.... 

*not very confirmed that 9 Feb would be a school holiday

i still like my 4-parts weekly layout; one whole page for work tasks, while the adjacent page is shared among a habit tracker, personal to-do tasks and a weekly art sketch, just that i'm unsure if Inktober #52 would be something that i wanna carry on into 2027... 







lanterns cutouts and rectangular signages were from cookie boxes received during CNY this feb... =)
