I love the Erin Condren Life Planner coil and this one is the very same, just a bit smaller for better portability. Both sizes come standard with a 19mm coil in either silver, gold, or rose gold (prices start at $15 and vary depending on notebook size and coil color choice). The new TakeNote notebooks are available in both an 8.5″ x 11″ size or my personal favorite, the all new 7″ x 9″ which is the same size as the Life Planners. I customized each one accordingly and just love how they turned out. I thought it would be nice to have an accompanying (and matching of course!) notebook to go with each planner. I currently use the rose gold coil as my personal planner and a gold coil to track my daughter, Charlotte’s development and day-to-day goings on. I decided to order both a gold and rose gold coil notebook to match my two Erin Condren Life Planners. They’ve just arrived and I thought I’d share a look with you! I was immediately smitten with the new 7″ x 9″ spiral bound notebooks and decided to order a few custom ones for myself. Recently I shared a look on Snapchat at a press box I received including Erin Condren’s redesigned TakeNote notebook and journal collection.

I can’t walk into a stationary shop without seriously considering adding to my notebook stash. I kept notebooks throughout my academic career and adulthood not just for school but also to record personal goals, thoughts, ideas, and even correspondence between friends. I was that kid in school who actually liked note-taking. I’ve also always been a fan of taking notes. I started my first diary when I was 8 years old and have kept up with a (mostly) consistent journaling practice ever since. I’ve been a notebook and journal lover for as long as I remember.
