Leftover Spread

Okay so I could easily ignore the fact that I didn't post for about a week or I could address it, and I would like to address it and apologize. Last week was honestly just so overwhelming, I had three midterms and none of my classes are necessarily easy, so I spent every waking moment just studying, since Wednesday the 20th until Fiday the 29th I was just nonstop studying, living in the library, and I had work amongst all of that as well so to say the least, I was stressed. As someone who plans, I honestly had every intention of doing my three posts last week plus the other two I missed the week before but I became overwhelmed, I truly underestimated how much time I would be spending in the library just focused and reviewing so I made the decision to skip all extra curriculars, aka blogging, and just stay in the zone. I did actually try posting on I believe Tuesday or Thursday last week but I started to fall asleep as I was typing and I just felt like I wasn't doing the best that I could on it, since I was essentially falling asleep so it's in my drafts and I didn't publish and I honestly probably won't. So I sincerely apologize for the absence but I don't have anymore crammed midterm weeks like that but if I ever feel as though I might not be able to handle it, I honestly might just pretype and set the blog to publish at a certain time in the future.

But enough of that, on to what we are all here for, the Planner spread of the week! I was honestly so worried about this one, I didn't really have any set plan except that I would be using Glam Planner's Decembered colored items, because I ordered a glitch kit towards the end of December simply because it was at a discounted price but I really didn't need it, so I thought it was about time I should use it since the blue kind of went with the blue in the January month. The kit iself though was not going to be enough for me, personally, so I decided to bring in a few of my other spare/leftover items and hopefully bring it all together. So the checklists with the stars, the tv icon, the weekend banner, To Do headers, the Odds and Ends header and the little bike decoration sticker are all from Glam Planner. The heart checklists on Monday, Wednesday and the Little Things heart checklist on Thursday are from the December colors from Basic Planning where as the one To Do heart checklist on Friday and the heart checklsit under Blog is from the Fall Kit from Basic Planning. The page flags and half boxes are leftovers from the January weekly kit from Basic Planning. My hydrate stickers are the usual ones from Pretty lil Planners. The TV heart checklist and the weight icon sticker are from CK7 plans, the Pink and Blue weekly kit I used fo my birthday week. There's the usual customized Spent, To Buy and Blog headers with the customized spent heart checklist. My piggy bank sticker is from Stickeriffic. And then the washi is from Target, they actually still have it up and it is called Sugar Paper Gold Patterned Washi Tape, it comes in like a regular tape dispenser but it has three different styles of washi tape. Oh my little Payday flag is from PlannerGlitz.com.

I'm sorry this spread isn't really available for puchase since I used nothing but old leftovers from previous spreads but I did want to do this for two reasons:

1) I went overboard on the sticker purchasing last year and I am trying to get that under control, it may not seem like it but I have spent very little so far on stickers this month and I am very proud of myself, so if cutting back means using leftovers from other spreads, I will do so because honestly, I love this week's spread and I like that it essentially was done with little to no extra cost to me.

2) I wanted to show you guys that you really don't have to spend like $20 on weekly spreads every week, it's costly and if you have the money go for it but for those planning on a budgement, just keep an eye out, sometimes even stickers from different shops can easily be matched up reducing the cost from $20 a week to about $10 a week.

I hope you enjoyed, I can't wait for next week's spread (Valentine/3 year anniversary)! You are all in for what I believe will be a great spread.

Love,

Bee
