As a Certified Interior Decorator and Professional Organizer, I searched long and hard to find a planner that would work great for my busy and hectic schedule. Last year I discovered Erin Condren and it was love at first sight. (Cue the Butterflies)… Now, I currently own a small collection of Erin Condren items.
I use my personal Life Planner to plan all aspects of my life. From doctors appointments to shopping trips to household chores… Everything is written down. There is something about paper and ink that is totally reliable to me. I don’t have to worry about hitting ignore on a cell phone reminder and forgetting about it. I carry my Life Planner with me EVERYWHERE….
My son is a senior in high school. I have an Erin Condren Notebook specifically for him. I use it to track all activities and events for his senior year. It stays on my desk but we do take it to the monthly senior meetings at his school. Inside of his notebook I keep information concerning senior activities, college information, college trips, scholarship info, etc…
I absolutely love my fitness life planner. I use it to record my fitness, nutrition, monitor my steps and calories lost, and meal plan. If I achieve my daily goal, I award myself with a happy sticker for the day!!!
I’m going to use a separate notebook for my budget and finances… This is still a work in progress.
I absolutely love the Erin Condren Teacher Planner. I completely customized it to use for my small business. I can completely plan and outline my social media, appointments, customer contacts, etc… I also keep many of my important business documents in the planner.
Since I keep my Teacher Planner in my home office, I carry a designated Erin Condren Deluxe notebook with me when I’m at appointments or meetings. I love being able to customize the cover.
I am truly enjoying my Erin Condren experience. If you have an Erin Condren, I would love to hear how you use it.. Please comment below.

Hi! I just wanted to write down the reasons why I would really appreciate being chosen to receive this life planner! I am currently a college student, which means that I have a limited budget. This year I was gifted an Erin Condren planner from my mom, but it would be great if next year I could get one on my own since it is kind of pricey. Also, I have anxiety. I have found out that keeping a planner like this is a great way to cope because then I can see everything that needs to be done and taken care of, and also where I need to be all out once. Not to mention the fact that it’s possible to customize the planner with positivity reminders which is always nice. Yes! So I am really sorry that this was such a long comment but I got kind of carried away. Thank you for taking the time to read this! π
Divine Elements of Design says
Hello Kira, I think its awesome that your mom gifted you a planner for college. I wish EC was around when I was in college. Good luck!!
Kira says
thanks for replying! but yes I was really thankful for that. that’s true but at least you’re making up for lost time now. seems like you’ve got the whole range. I really like the fitness one. I was doing really well with tracking all of my meals and exercise for… 3 months but then spring break hit and I never picked it back up unfortunately. went off on a tangent here, I’m sorry. But thank you!
Judith says

I use my planner to organize my life with my husband and 4 boys!
Divine Elements of Design says
Hi Brooke.. Great to “see” you again. Good luck!!
Leigh Pruitt says
I have soooo much going on…Team Beachbody Coach, Mary Kay Consultant, Full Time JOB…and I love EC π
Divine Elements of Design says
Leigh, you do have a lot going on. You should check out the video I did on how I transformed a teacher planner into a small business/direct sales planner.
Gabby And Her Boys says
Hi there. I would use the EC planner for school. I am currently on my last semester of college. So, it is critical to stay on top of every assignment. As well, once I graduate I would use it to find a job interviews, job fairs, and everything that is required in order to find a job.
Divine Elements of Design says
Gabby, Congrats on your upcoming graduation. That is such a wonderful accomplishment.
Kary Franchetti says
Just recently “found” EC myself and LOVE it! Also enjoying your blog – glad to have “”found” it, too!
Divine Elements of Design says
Kary, Thanks for following.. Good luck.
Arianne says
Hi, Nakeya! (what a unique name you’ve got!) Thanks for this opportunity! I’ve been wanting an ECLP since I saw it online. I think it’s a great planning system, which I’m dying to try. If I win this giveaway *crossing my fingers* I’m gonna use it to track my schedule for online teaching, blog posting, house chores, lists, my dog’s pampering time and my budget/finances. It’s going to be my desk planner – it has to stay at home. Heehee
Divine Elements of Design says
Arianne, you have a lovely name as well. You also have a very busy schedule. An EC is perfect for people like us. Good luck.
Cyndi says
I would use the EC Planner for my book blog. I need a way to track my reviews.
Divine Elements of Design says
Great idea Cyndi. Best of luck to you…
Rachel Olaes says
I would use it for a way to keep a “scrapbook” of daily events and photos (as inserts) for me to look back on when my kids get older. π
Divine Elements of Design says
The “scrapbook” idea is excellent. That’s how I’m using the notebook for my son’s senior year in high school.
Jennifer C. says
I’d like to start planning because I seem to have a decent amount of spare or recreational time, but just don’t ever seem to do anything productive with it. I feel like if I wrote my to-dos down, they might get done.
Divine Elements of Design says
Jennifer, That’s an excellent idea. I’m sure you will enjoy it.
Denise says
I have been trying too get my family life together so I started watching videos about different planners. And I realized that the Erin Condren planner was the most used. So that’s when I realized these planner is the one to try. I would use it for my appt., work schedule, household chores and meal planning. Right now I’m using the family binder system but it too bulkie to carry around with me.
Divine Elements of Design says
Denise, You’re right, the family binder is great.. just a little to bulky for everyday carry. I truly enjoy the Erin Condren Life Planner.
K.M. Jackson (@KwanaWrites) says
I use Filofax but I’d love to give EC a try.
Divine Elements of Design says
Thanks for keeping an open mind. Having both is the best of both worlds.
foreverlove2007 says
I would use my planner for everything! Blogging, daily planning and homeschooling π -Sarah Mustardseedmommy
Divine Elements of Design says
Best of luck to you.
Laura Love says
I would use mine for my online business/blog tracking because right now I lump that in with my personal planner and it is a little crowded! So I would like one for Business and one for Personal
Divine Elements of Design says
You definitely need a separate planner for your business. I love having two (or more) planners.
biancarogoveanu says

Heidi says
I just learned about the Erin Condren planners in the past few months and mine is one its way, can hardly wait. Thanks for the great ideas you have done with using the planners. Heidi
Katherine L says
Thanks for the video and the giveaway! Love the idea of putting 2 teach planners together. I uncoiled one of my planners, I was nervous too but it did turn out okay. I know that there are several videos showing how to do it. Just search for uncoiling Erin Condren planners. Thanks again. π
Kate says
I am in love (and maybe obsessed) with Erin Condren!!
I use the life planner, teacher planner and notebooks! Not only are they beautiful but sturdy and organized! They’re great!
buffie blevins says
I ordered some cute stickers. When the wrong set came divine elements were already on the ball! They immediately sent out the correct stickers with extra goodies. They have excellent customer service & I can’t wait to order again:) Also i love my eclp! Can’t wait to see what kind of changes are coming!
July Alvarez says
I’d like to use this planner for school, I’m going to study overseas and I need to keep track of everything but I want to do it in a nice and cute way and the EC it’s just perfect for that!
Trina Flynn says
I would use the planner to help get me focused on my health. I haveType II Diabetes and currently dealing with some heart conditions. I really need to get myself organized with a strict healthy diet plan and having an EC Planner I believe would give me the chance to keep everything in order. It would also be helpful to write all my medications, doctors appointments, shopping lists and a little section to add inspiration to get my day off to a good start. Thank you for this chance at an Awesome Giveaway! Have yourself a wonderful Friday π
Leigh Anne Miller Borders says
I would love to have one of these. I am a school teacher and with a new school year. She has such great products that allow you to organize and still look stylish along the way!
Murray Imberg says
I’ve been browsing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a lot more useful than ever before.|
Harvey Theuenin says
It’s the best time to make some plans for the future and it is time to be happy. I have read this post and if I could I wish to suggest you some interesting things or tips. Maybe you could write next articles referring to this article. I desire to read even more things about it!|
