Orange Circle Studio 2021 Just Right Monthly Planner, August 2020 - December 2021, Bella Flora,Model Number: 21390

I stumbled across the Just Right Monthly Planner at a TJMaxx in 2017 and have eagerly sought out each year's new addition from Orange Circle Studios. I have a massive, detailed planner at work that I don't need to lug around, so a smaller, personal planner was in order. This planner is PERFECT for anyone who needs a mobile month at a glance. Most calendars made for one's purse have too little space to write, especially if you have more than one appointment or date to remember. The week at a glance planners are obviously thicker and heavier. I have always benefitted from a monthly calendar, as I'm less likely to be caught off guard because I see the big picture of my life on a near daily basis. Because it is too small for all my work needs, I occasionally need to duplicate entries (noting a medical appointment in my work calendar, noting a work event in my personal calendar) but this tiny organizational need is WELL worth the benefits of having a practically weightless calendar. More details about why I love this planner: Attractive cover design; a different page backdrop each month that is very pale (not distracting) yet which looks pretty; a place for a list or notes on each monthly 2-page spread; more places for writing notes at the back of the calendar pages; and a pocket inside the back cover where I can hold papers I need, a few stamps and envelopes, and even a couple of crossword puzzles for doctors' waiting rooms.The cover is a heavy cardboard (about the thickness of chip board) so it is not water resistant if it happens to be next to your spilled soup (messy tote bag incident). That said, it holds up plenty well under normal circumstances. The interior pages are made of a thick enough paper that turns easily without tearing and doesn't reveal what you wrote on the opposite side of the page. With all that for $12.99, you get a lot of bang for your buck.

I used the Just Right planner for quite a few years before giving the bigger popular ones a try. Not only were the others such as Erin Condren MUCH more expensive but I found they really just had a lot of extras that I didn't need or use. I ordered this one so I could go back to using these that really are "Just Right"What I love about these are the look, very pretty cover and pages. The size, it's perfect for keeping out on my desk but also sticking in my computer bag when I travel. There is just enough room on day squares to put a few different appointments as needed and each month has a checklist that I use for To Do items that I can check off when done.In the back are note pages, some with perferations you can tear off. I use these pages for address/phone numbers, passwords and things like that. The back page has a handy spot for loose papers that keep current bills/stuff I need to take care of in.For the price, you just cannot beat this planner. I will be buying the Orange Circle Studio Just Right planners as long as they sell them.

Literally the perfect size planner! The pages are large enough for a clear 2 page spread and the days are large enough to fit multiple events/appointments if need be.I like to see view of my month as opposed to weeks and having all my work dates, appointment, doc visits and such in one snap shot is wonderful! Or else I can end up packing too much into a week and feel overwhelmed.SLIM! No extra unnecessary pages that add bulk. Just a few notes pages at the back which are appreciated!Two things though ..1.) I might have to add a protective layer to the covers because although it is a thick card stock I feel that by December 2021 it might be too beat up from being in my purse, diaper bag, etc ..2.) I would love to have month tabs to be able to open up quickly to a month that I need to use. That’s easily fixable by buying the tabs or making them but if the planner was designed with them I would be the happiest camper!

Great price point and value for the monthly planner. I like opening it up and seeing the entire month on one space.

I just want a monthly calendar that I can open up by the month, if it has a big enough block that you can write things in, but you can see the month all at one place. I get sick and tired of looking at calendars that have 5,000 Pages for gifts, horoscope, meetings, if you are just looking for a plain monthly calendar, look no further, this is the third or fourth year in a row that I have ordered one of these, it fits in a briefcase, it fits in a purse, it is perfect. I am not a keep a calendar on the phone I like a paper calendar, this is good sturdy, easily portable, inexpensive, and well-made.

I love how slim and flat this monthly planner is. I do not need tons of extra paper weighing me down. Each month is a 2-page spread with squares that are plenty big enough to write notes, events, appointments in, and a checklist on the side helps me organize. I love the pocket in the back to store receipts, birthday cards to send, my work schedule, etc. The elastic band keeps it closed when I take it traveling, or marked to the month I am in, when at home. To top it off, it is always pretty. I but this year after year.

This 17 month Bella Floral planner for 2021 is not just pretty on the cover but every page has a soft floral print, almost like a watermark. So many planners are only pretty on the outside! The size of the day boxes are big enough to easily write my reminders in with additional "note" column on the side. I love the simplicity of this planners. Monthly tracking is really all I need and most planners include additional daily planner pages. Thank you Orange Circle Studio for a very beautiful planner.

I am a High School Teacher and I just love the way it looks. It is not too thick, durable, not heavy at all. I so much look forward to seeing the next year calendar look different, the impressions on the pages are light and inspiring, different every month of the year. I cannot imagine being without it. As soon as the school year ends, this is one of the first things I always make sure to reorder. It is simply “perfectly, perfect!”
