An Organized Mess! {8 Printable Blog Planners}

Howdy friends! I'm feeling much better than yesterday, but still incredibly sore. I"m sucking it up though because I'm excited to share something with you!

I've always been a ridiculously organized person. Order and organization - it just makes me feel happy and at peace. Yes, really. I've been blogging for at least two years now, and can you believe it? I've never had a written plan. No planner, no organizer. No real guidelines. Yikes, that is explains it all.

In my defense, I have been actively searching for the perfect planner for quite some time but I never could find it. That all changed this weekend! With the help of some free printable pages I found online and one printable planner I purchased from etsy, I've made myself the {almost} perfect planner! I pieced all of the necessary pages together and then I took them down to Staples and had them bind them all together. It cost about $6! I was so excited y'all! My hubby and BFF think I"m whackadoodle but I know some of y'all will totally get where I'm coming from!

I also have sections to track stats, giveaways, expenses, sponsors, link ups, affiliates, and future ideas.
I'm in love :)

Since it's the beginning of the year and I'm willing to bet that a lot of you are looking for fresh ways to stay organized this year, I thought I'd share some of the great planners I found over the weekend.

This is the planner package I purchased on Etsy. I loved the way it was laid out - it's very simple. Plus it had almost everything I wanted and honestly, I was tired of searching for the perfect FREE planner so I bought it. I don't regret buying it - it's wonderful!

Click It Up A Notch - The Ultimate Blog Planner - This one is $12 and it was one of my top favorites.

Free Downloads:

Mama Jenn's 2013 Planner (50+ pages) - I used quite a few pages from this planner, including my cover page )
Homeschool Creation's Yearly Blog Planner - I used several pages out of this one too!! 60+ Pages.
Little Becky Homecky has a great planner that I think will work for a lot of you.  I wish I had seen this one before I made mine! 
The Between U & Me Planner was one of the few that I found that contained a contacts list! This one is actually no longer free.
Barely Mommy has the cutest and oh so simple planning worksheets!

This is by no means an exhaustive list, but these are some of my favorites. I hope this will be of some help to you!

Do you use a blog planner? Where did you find it? I'd love to see it!

DON'T FORGET TO COME BACK TOMORROW & LINK UP WITH ME FOR WEIGH IN WEDNESDAY!
