ANOTHER Quick Erin Condren Update


Am I driving you all crazy yet with my Erin Condren updates? Well, I'm sorry, but I'm obsessed. And to be honest, they probably aren't stopping anytime soon. Tomorrow is the first day of the second month I've had my Erin Condren planner, and I'm already deep into my decorating. 



I've ordered a few new accessories from Erin Condren's website since my last update video. My favorite one, shown above, are the personalized photo stickers. These are great, and for $5 you really can't beat that price. This here for August, is my boyfriends daughters birthday. I've decided to use a Birthday sticker, included in the planner, as well as the photo sticker. 


I also purchased a full sheet of personalized Event Stickers, also $5, all saying "Due $__". I've placed these on the month at a glance section to track my bill due dates and totals. 


The last extra that I've purchased from Erin Condren's site is the coil clips. These are to add any extras into the coils of the planner. Here I added a ticket to a baseball game that we went to while I was on my work trip. These are really neat and useful. I believe these are around $7.  


I've been getting better and better with my decorating. The last three days I was on vacation at my family's lake house, and I'm really happy with how this page turned out. 


I also created my own to do list to glue into the boxes for my daily lists. I'm really happy with how these turned out. 


And the last main thing I've purchased is these chore stickers, which I purchased off of Etsy. These are so damn cute if you ask me! I personalized my order to include the chores that we do in our household, and I'm so happy that these are in my life.

Blogtober Day 24! DIY Remove Black Stains from Hardwood Floors

      This blog is coming to you by accident, of course. I don't know if I've mentioned it much on this blog, but I have two pitbulls. I know, a lot to handle, and one of them is a puppy. She is horrible sometimes, but I can't help but love her. Our whole house is hardwood floors, which I love! With my two dogs, if the happen to have an accident it's really easy to clean up...or so I thought.  We have had a large living room rug down for about 6 months now. Over the weekend we decided to take it outside and air it out and do a little "Fall Cleaning". Low and behold underneath the rug were huge dark black spots on the hardwood. I immediately jumped on Pinterest to see what to do. It turns out dogs urine causes the wood to turn black (who knew?). So I found a solution that I'm really excited to share with you.  Peroxide! Awesome, I had plenty on hand and immediately started to try it out. At first I used a paint brush to apply it to the specific areas.  Almo...

Personal Planner Setup

I have been using a planner for as long as I can remember. My little OCD self needs something to keep me grounded and on track. About 3 years ago I discovered Erin Condren as well as the planner community on social media (if you are a planner person check them out, it is such a positive and supportive group of people). If you're not familiar, the Erin Condren Life Planner is an A5 size planner (7" by 9") and is a thick planner. For me, this type of planner is not convenient for every day use so this planner stays at home on my desk and is used mostly for my creative side, not functionality. This brings me to my personal size planner, I use a Kate Spade Wellesley planner which can be bought at the Kate Spade Outlet stores (these outlets will ship to you so call around if you don't live close to one and are interested). Currently as pictured above I am using the red version which was re-released this Summer, and I also have a black version which is always in stock....

Why I'm No Longer Purchasing from Erin Condren

  I'm fully aware that some people might not agree with me on this topic, but I really need to share my experiences with Erin Condren as well as my opinions on why I do not plan on purchasing from this brand any longer.  Customer Service Good customer service is what makes a company, and unfortunately that is NOT Erin Condren's top priority. My personal experience with the customer service has been half and half. The policies and responses to customers is never consistent which makes me believe they make do not have any rules and guidelines for dealing with customer issues. In my opinion a company should have guidelines for handling issues and complaints.  Quality Control I have placed a total of 25 orders with Erin Condren over the past 5 years. Within the last 2 years 4 out of 5 orders have arrived either incorrect, flawed, or completely wrong. Again, only in my opinion, the way that this company lets orders leave there facility tells me that they don't...
