Why I love A5 Ring Agendas with EC Inserts

It's been about two years since I jumped into the world of A5 Rings and I love it so much. My A5 rings and my Hourly Life Planner has all I need to function day to day, week to week. Ever since EC started offering the A5 rings system, I have only use their inserts because of how much I love writing on their Mowhawk paper! I have even in the past bought some of their notepads and punched holes in them so they could work inside my ring agenda. I'm so happy to report that this recent Life Planner Launch Season, EC has opened up even more possibilities with their new A5 Ring Agenda system.

You can choose to buy the agenda system that includes the ring agenda with inserts, or you are flexible enough to buy all of the inserts you want individually. I find it best to buy the agenda system each year, even if you aren't using the actual rings for your agenda. It's a great way to store the inserts and also your finished inserts to store the entire year. Plus you'll also get all the Life Planner perks like agenda bookmark/ruler and coupon welcome packet.

This time around you can truely "fraken plan" and make your agenda what you want! They have created all new inserts so you are able to add in lined notes, budget, wellness, whatever you need! 

Here are all of the insert packs you can get from their web site. They are $10.50 each. I'm hoping they will offer one day blank inserts too so I am able to print inserts of my own but using their amazing paper!

 

EC has even made A5 rings extra special because now if buy an agenda planner system with either daily or weekly inserts, just choose up to 3 supplemental inserts and you'll get 20% off the entire planner system! 

Watch my Instagram video below to get an idea for how beautiful the new system works and looks! I have the new Wisteria cover (love this shade of mauve) with the Inspire Daily pages as well as a bunch of the new inserts.

EttaVee x Erin Condren: New Items Launched Today!

 

Today is launch day for new items added to the gorgeous EttaVee x Erin Condren Collection!

EttaVee was created by artist Jessica Raulet, an American artist living in France. Jessica's hand-painted designs are colorful, vibrant and bold! I love what her brand EttaVee represents. There's such energy and beauty and inspiration from nature in her work. There are two added designs: "Happy Colors " -- a bold, colorful set of brush strokes mixed in with gold flecks and "Petals" featuring colorful daisy flowers in a rainbow array of colors. I'm so ready for spring and it's making me excited for summer in France this year.

Thanks to the EC team, I recently received the new items in the EttaVee x Erin Condren Collection and wanted to share what came in my box! Some of the items that I received are not online yet so I will add the links when they are online.

EttaVee Happy Colors Monthly Planner with Vegan Leather Cover (not available yet)

(regular monthly planner is available now for $32)

EttaVee Ultimate Planny Pack ($20)

This is my favorite pouch design to store my pens and planner accessories. The zip that goes on the top and side is perfection. Everything stays organized and it fits even the tall Tombow Brush pens I have!

EttaVee Mini Snap-In Bookmark Trio ($4.50)

EttaVee Sticky Note Booklet ($12.50)

These sticky notes in different sizes and colors are so gorgeous! I am always reaching for sticky notes to preplan or to flag events that are important. Love these designs so much.

Sunset Dual-Tip List Marker ($10.50)

I love these double sided thin tip markers that have a stamp on the other side. The red one is a circle and the orange one is an asterisk, perfect for list making.

Metallic Click Pen Duo ($10.50)

Even though the names say metallic, this two pen set both are black ballpoint ink. The pens are super light and stylishly portable.

 

Here are some other things from the EttaVee x Erin Condren Collection that I love:

EttaVee Petals Cover ($8)

 

EttaVee Happy Colors Cover ($8)

Shop the EC Black Friday Sale Now!

Here's a list of all the things I purchased at the EC Black Friday Sale! I will also do a review of everything once I receive the products in the mail. I highly recommend ordering early so you don't encounter shipping delays.  

Linen Large Weekender Bag (on sale $77, original $110)

This has been at the top of my list as a gift for my teen girl. She's a neutral one at heart but does love the Flora pattern. I love that the pattern is on the inside. This is great for her to use weekend sleepovers and future trips. I love all the compartments and zippers. It's very light weight and the handles and straps are real leather trim. The bag also comes in Navy with MCC pattern interior.

Flora Packing Cube Set of 3 (on sale $16.80, original $24)

I love packing cubes and this is another gift for my daughter. I'm working on a travel theme for her this holiday. The pack of 3 comes with a large packing cube (15.7" X 5.1" X 12.2"), Small packing cube (11.8" X 5.3" X 8.3") and a Large Laundry Pouch (13.6" X 10.2").

 

Large Flora Accordion Zipper Pouch (on sale $14, original $20)

I thought this was a great matching accessory to use for travel or general crafting supplies. It's larger than the the usual accordion zip pouches and can fit an A5 sized notebook. I think it's a great place to store toiletries or hair accessories for a trip. 

Wellness Gift Set (on sale $28, original $40)

There are a few wonderful gift set boxes available for sale (Teacher, Plant Lover, Travel). This Wellness Gift Set is for my best friend. We talk a lot about self care during the pandemic and I thought this notepad, flora coffee cup, rose gold pen and cute woven pink basket could help her keep track of her Pelaton workouts and long walks along the beach.

Flora Sherpa Throw (on sale $38.50 , original $55)

This is for my mom. She loves my Neutral Layers Sherpa I have. This is the coziest blanket to have while watching TV on the couch. I love it so much and this flora pattern is gorgeous. You are also able to chose the background color: Flora Blue, Flora Tan, Flora Purple, Flora Pink, Flora Aqua.

Star Wars Tatooine Lined Focused Notebook (on sale $11.20, original $16)

This is for my husband. He loves Star Wars and he's been stealing my EC petite planner notebooks since he has been working at home this past year or so. I figured it's time to get him his own EC notebook!

 

Stocking Stuffers:    

There is a whole 60% off sale area which is a great place to pick up some unique stocking stuffers. Here's what I got. Shop these quickly as they will sell out.

Colorful Ruler (on sale $3.20, original $8)

Turquoise Pocket Scissors (on sale $4.20, original $10.50)

Monogram Embroidery Kit (on sale $4.80, original $12)

 

Hello Kitty Velvet Pencil Pouch (on sale $6, original $12)

 

Stuff for Me:

How can I buy holiday gifts for everyone and forget myself? I have a Christmas Eve birthday so I decided to treat myself to some new planner-related / desk accessory things I have been wanting.

 

Mid Century Circles Acrylic Organizer Bookends (on sale $29.40, original $42)

These were at the top of my list. I love how these bookends can keep my planners together and also help me organize my pens and smaller notepads and acccessories.

Flora Gardenia Notepad 2pk (original $18)

I am almost done with my Peony notepads and had to get a replenishment. I got it in dot grid and love it so much.

Earth Tones Focused Dual-Tip Markers 6 pack (on sale $10.85, original $15.50)

Unfortunately since I purchased these yesterday, they are now out of stock. I just love all the muted colors and think they will be perfect for writing in my planners or writing notes. 

Colorblends Petite Planner Budget (on sale $9.80, original $14)

I can't resist this new ombre design and I really want to budget better. I have a few of the petite planner covers but I might cut the pages and punch them to go in my A5 ringbound planner to keep everything together. 

Colorblends Petite Planner Meal Planner (on sale $9.80, original $14)

Winter Seasonal Surprise Box 2021 ($40)

Hurry up because supplies are limited for the Winter Seasonal Surprise box. From the decor of the box I have a feeling this is a great box for the new year and celebrations. I'm so looking forward to 2022!
