There are two kinds of planner people in this world:
- The ones who find a system and stick to it religiously
- And the ones who Frankenstein their own setup every three months (it’s me, hi, I’m the problem)
If you’ve ever looked at a pre-made planner and thought, “Love it, but I’d change… literally everything,” then let me introduce you to your new BFF: the build-your-own coil planner.
This is your guide to building a planner that fits your brain, your routines, your style — your everything.
Why Go Custom?
Custom planning is about more than picking a cute cover (though that part’s fun, too).
It’s about building a tool that works with your life — not against it.
Whether you’re juggling work, rest, parenting, neurospicy thoughts, or just trying to keep track of your moods and meals, a custom planner lets you:
- Choose inserts that reflect your needs
- Decide how you want to lay things out
- Make something that’s genuinely useful — and beautiful
No guilt. No wasted pages. Just what works.
How to Create Your Custom Coil-Bound Planner
Four easy steps. One wicked smart setup.
Step 1: Pick Your Inserts (3–9)
Start by choosing the inserts you want to live inside your planner. These can be anything — weekly layouts, project planning pages, mental health journals, daily logs, budgeting tools, memory keeping pages, etc.
📏 Important: All inserts must be the same size. Choose from: Pocket Ring, A6 Ring, Personal Ring, Personal Wide Ring, B6 Ring, A5 Ring, HP Mini, & HP Classic
This is the foundation of your planner. Pick what serves you right now, not what you think you should be using.
Step 2: Add the Coil Binding Upgrade
Once your inserts are in your cart, head to the Coil Binding Upgrade to turn your stack of paper love into a bound book.
You’ll choose:
- Your planner size (must match your insert size)
- Your coil material: black metal or silver aluminum
- Your coil thickness:
- Standard coils are perfect for regular use.
- Upgrade to a larger coil (just $2 extra) if you love chunky planners filled with stickers, washi, and ephemera galore. (We see you, maximalists.)
Step 3: Design Your Cover
This is the fun part — make it yours.
With the built-in cover designer, you can:
- Start with a pre-designed look (lyrics, quotes, vibes)
- Or create your own:
- Add your own text
- Choose your font
- Pick a pattern or layout style that feels just right
You’ll also see a spot to tell us the order you want your inserts in.
📚 Note: Inserts must be bound in full sets. That means we can’t interleave them page-by-page — so don’t ask us to mix Daily A with Weekly B on alternating sheets. It’ll be:
➡️ Full Insert A → Full Insert B → Full Insert C, etc.
Step 4: Check Out & Let the Magic Happen
Once everything’s ready, hit checkout.
Behind the scenes, I’ll be assembling your planner by hand — printing, cutting, coiling, and packing it up with care. You’ll have something truly made just for you, and ready to help you plan (or process, or scribble, or rage-write) your way through whatever life’s throwing at you right now.
Final Thoughts
You don’t need a perfect system. You just need one that meets you where you are.
This custom coil planner might not solve all your problems — but it will hold space for your lists, your feelings, your growth, and your sticker collection.
And sometimes? That’s everything.
