Personal Domino Setup

 I'm back again with another post!! This time I am going to show you my Personal Domino's set-up! I feel like it has changed too many times in three weeks haha--I'm just never satisfied!!

Before I jump in to this and start showing you photos of my lovely Lola, I should tell you that my month on two page view is going to change because I am waiting on the month on two page with the boxes because I hate the month view I have now!!

This is the month on two pages  I am waiting on. 

This is the month on two pages that I have! 


I will do a post on the new stuff that comes in the mail if it ever arrives!! I have ordered some stickers from eBay, and a few things from Filofax.

Anyway enough of me rambling lets get started!! :

Meet Lola. Isn't she gorgeous!! I love her. She is personal size and bright orange!


When you first open Lola there are four normally sized card slots and then a bigger slot. Behind these card slots is a pocket. I keep, random business cards, my student ID, and some sticky notes in the card slots. In the over sized card slot I keep magnetic clips from Chapters bookstore. In the large pocket behind I don't store anything at the moment (although this may change).

This is the front inside cover of my Filofax! 

Next to this is my flyleaf with my "table of contents" behind it. I made the table of contents from a piece of scrapbook paper. I use this to keep track of what the dividers hold, and what each pen color means (because I haven't been using Lola for very long... and my memory sucks haha).



My daily diary pages are my favorite part of my planner. I use stamps, and washi tape to decorate them (an idea I got from MyPurplelyLife on YouTube! Check her out if you like the way it looks!). All of the materials I got to decorate these pages are from Michaels!


Another organization method I like to use is expense and coupon envelopes. I use the expense envelopes to hold receipts so I can track how much I am spending and if I need to return something I can easily find my receipt. I started using a coupon envelope because Michaels always has coupons so I save them there!! I found these printable's on a blog called mylifeallinoneplace.blogspot.com. Check it out for some awesome inserts!! 


And the last important part of my set up is my notes I use the A-Z dividers to alphabetize them. It works really well!!! I find it makes things much easier to find. 


Finally I should mention my pen. I use the bic four color fashion pen...

The way I use this is I gave each color a meaning. But remember I change the light green ink to a dark blue. Anyway I write things in their corresponding color and if I need to make something such as an exam stand out I place a specific color Avery dot next to it. 



Hope you all enjoyed this post. If you have any questions, or blog suggestions please comment below. Also check out my new YouTube channel for more filofax and organization videos!!  My channel is linked in my profile!
