Cute Planners You’ll Fall in Love With

A cute planner sits open to a weekly planning page next to a cheerful lemon patterned notecard and pen.

Sometimes, it’s the little things that make you smile and brighten your day. 

This is especially true of the things you use and come into contact with on a daily basis. Take your planner - a great planner keeps you organized and productive, on schedule and more intentional, but a cute planner also makes you happy, brightens your workspace, and brings joy to tiny moments in your everyday life! 

But can “cute” be professional? Can “cute” still be functional and productive? The short answer is YES. 

So before giving up on finding a cute planner that can still meet your productivity needs, let’s look at ways you can get the best of both worlds. 

The benefits of adding cuteness to your day

Can a cute planner really make a difference in your day and in your life? We think so! 

Incorporating cute, unique elements into your day can go a long way to transforming your workspace, making you feel more relaxed, and motivating you through challenging days. Having work tools that you love means you’re more likely to use the item or complete a dull task that incorporates it. Think of a boring, uninteresting task that you avoid doing (filing, anyone?); but, if you get to use a cute office supply that brings you joy during that boring task, it can really jumpstart your motivation to get the task done. 

The same goes for a planner. If you’ve struggled to incorporate a planner in your day-to-day,, or want to find ways to make using your planner more fun and enjoyable, having a cute planner can make a difference. 

The tools you use should make you successful, provide you with a source of inspiration, motivate you, and delight you! 

Finding your cute planner 

Before searching for “cute planners” on the internet and being bombarded with all sorts of things, think about what cute means to you, what elements you like, and what kinds of things normally bring you joy in your favorite products.

  • What brings you delight and joy when you look at something cute? Elements that are beautiful, colorful, unique, playful, etc.?
  • Are cute accessories or features important to you, like a funky ribbon or exterior band, fun textures or sticker options?
  • Do you find animals or plants and natural elements cute? 
  • What about cute and silly/provocative/fun words, phrases, or prompts?
  • Did you see someone else’s planner and think that it was really cute? Why did you think it was cute?

Thinking about the cute things that make you happy will give you focus, so you won’t get overwhelmed by all of the options out there.
