Gorgeous Galison Planner is Getting My Act Together

By
Trish Deitemyer

One of my recurring New Year’s resolutions is to get organized. (I guess it hasn’t happened yet, since I keep adding it to my resolution list, year after year…) Besides organizing my home, handbag and sock drawer, I’ve decided I need to get mealtimes in order, too. I usually do my weekly grocery shopping on Sunday nights, but, more often than not, by Wednesday, we’re mysteriously out of food. This in turn causes either an annoying extra grocery store trip or, even more costly and unhealthy, fast food (shudder!) When I received my beautiful Origami Lane Weekly Organizer from Galison, DD thought it would be great for organizing dinners. Brilliant!!! I use my planner to write out each dinner for the week, then write my list on the enclosed note pad. Any extra reminders get jotted down on the cute little stickie notes. There’s a super handy accordion-style envelope attached, where I can stash coupons or receipts.

I take my organizer with me when I go shopping, and it really helps me stay on track (and on budget!) Now, if this was a normal notebook or boring black planner, I might feel a little nerdy, but not with my adorable flower print Galison planner perched prettily on my cart.

Galison has so many, many great stationery items; you’ll have a hard time choosing just one! They are quality pieces; no cheapy dollar store notepads here. Besides planners and notes, you’ll find recipes boxes and binders, puzzles, stickers, address and phone books, calendars, journals and notepads of every size and shape. I counted over 50 different collections, but there are probably lots more. Many are illustrated with graphics or drawings, but some are graced with art from Andy Warhol, Renoir, Georgia O’Keeffe, Monet and William Morris. Galison products make great gifts, but you may find it very hard to part with them. But you deserve a present, right? After all, you’ve been working hard on those resolutions!


*Giveaway*
One winner will receive a Galison Origami Lane Weekly Organizer and Origami Lane Social. ($29 Value)

    I think the “Andy Warhol In Style Accordion Organizer” would help with my own efforts to be more organized.
