‘Ikat’ Filofax, Temperley London
A new year and time to kick some organisational butt! I’ve been um-ing and ah-ing about getting a Filofax for a few months after reading Skye‘s Filofax round-up posts last year and getting pretty obsessed with Angela of Paper Love Story‘s blog. My Dad asked for a new one for Christmas this year and whilst looking for him, I’ll admit I was window shopping for myself too ;) As the New Year rolled in and whilst meandering through TK Maxx this past weekend for a cheap 2014 diary, I stumbled upon this absolute bargain find!
The Temperley London ‘Ikat’ was a Filofax style I’d been eyeing up to get and the one I found was going for £15! The organiser itself includes the personal sized diary pages, plus pretty black and gold dividers and rings. I’m only using the Diary, Projects, Addresses, Birthday and Notes ones at the moment, though it did come with additional A-Z address pages, Week on a page diary inserts and Expenses too. I decided to get the ‘Week on two pages’ inserts, as well as some blank pages for a little more flexibility, and may make up some personalised pages in the coming weeks.
I’ve filled in bits and pieces of my Uni timetable plus some key dates for blog posts and reading, so it’s looking pretty clean at the moment – I suspect this will change in about a week. But I do want to try and get creative with my pages.
The diary itself is removable, so should I choose to move on from using this it can turn into a really nice purse – there’s even card slots and space for money.
The next few months are pretty big for me, so I’m hoping this will make organisation a little more fun. If anything it give me an excuse to finally buy washi tape and pretty stationary ^_^
