Mochi Things

My favorite planners & calendars 


I would be lost without my planner. And I'm not one of those people who uses the calendar on their phone. Oh no. I do much better the old fashioned way. I did a lot of hunting for just the right planner last year. I decided I didn't need one the size of a notebook, nor did I need something short and stout with 400 lined pages. I just wanted monthly calendar spreads to jot down daily plans in a format that could fit in my purse. Bonus points for a cute design. 



My fellow planners, if you haven't heard of Mochi Things, get excited! The planners (journals, they call them) at Mochi Things rock my socks. You can certainly find journals that give you weekly spreads (if you're the kind of person who likes to log multiple tasks in a day), but they also offer the perfect little (but not too little) planners for people who prefer an overall monthly scope. 

You can go for their 2017 version (which starts with October and goes through next December, so you can get to planning right away!), or you can get a blank planner. I went with the blank planner last year and bought a new one for 2017. This planner has all of the monthly calendar spreads ready for you, but it's up to you to write in the name of each month and the corresponding dates. A little extra work, but worth it. The nice thing about the blank-ness is you really can start your next year's calendar whenever you want! 



Mochi Things does a fantastic job of laying out all the details of each planner in the product description, so be sure to read carefully. They outline the dimensions, the number of pages, etc. You'll notice some planners come with a plastic protector — my favorite! It's not only water-resistant, it provides little pockets that come in handy. 

Not only do the planners at Mochi Things tick all the functionality boxes, they're also freaking adorable and come in so many super fun styles and colors. There are more plain designs for you super serious people, but I love the patterns best. Basically, I'm obsessed with Mochi Things, and I think any planning person would be too! 



P.S. I can't take credit for the product pics — they're straight from the Mochi Things website. Their beautiful, take-my-money website.
