Here is a small compilation of photos I have taken of the Finchley (be warned, the colour does not look right, and i tried hard).
I was totally supprise by this Filofax, it is so FLEXBILE! Just beautiful, if anyone ever gets a chance to get a Finchley no matter what colour get one, they feel beautiful to hold!!
I then decided to compare it agains my Malden, and the leather feels so much more Luxurious than the Malden, it just feel more beautiful more loved!
I prefer the Vintage Rose anyday, its such a beautiful colour, i know the red is really deep any beautiful but it just does not compare to the Finchley. Even though i prefer the pocket layout of the Malden, i love the back pocket of the Finchley as you can use it to put pictures in! YAY!!!! Cat shrine!

We now should have a public Naming ceremony, I have named her Florance, or Flo for short, as she feels like a Flo, a beautiful name for a beautiful Filofax! She will look beautiful with my Alexa!!!
So now on to my minor setting up, which im gradyally doing but i am lacking dividers, so i have made an exchange (well i have dividers but there all red and orange, does not go with pink clashes AWFULLY) with @sallyhj0 she needed a 2011 week per a page diary and she makes her own dividers, so i sent her alot of nice filofax things too in return she will make me some dividers! YAY THANK YOU!!!!!
So here is my main dillema with the Filofax: -
So i use the 2011 Paperchase diary, or the Filofax 2 days to a page 2011 diary? Please answer on the side at the poll >>>>>>>
After that i have just written up my Xmas list, and accidently put 2012 instead of 2011, which means it can be used 2 years in a row!! early 2012 planning is now in session!!!
I also have 2 today rulers, one for to-do lists and the other for dairy, important for me to not get confused!!
Birthdays are written down too, one thing i need is telephone number sheets!!! IMPORTANT!
Arnold looks at home!!
Here are all the Pocket and Personal inserts i own in BOX FORM!!!
This box = AMAZING!!! sorry but it does!
Imy, I found myself a gorgeous WHSmith photo box and did exactly this with my inserts. I kept on smiling every time I looked at it. I love having things like that organised!
ReplyDeleteImy I did exactly this last night! After finding a very gorgeous leather W H smiths photo storage box(complete with photo dividers) I organised all my spare inserts. Was sooo pretty and made me smile every time I looked at it. so I know exactly what you mean.

Great post, Imy! I love your new FF! I keep getting Finsbury and Finchley confused all the time, but the Finchley has much softer, more supple leather, right?
ReplyDeleteI, too, have a Filofax Box o' Goodies with all my inserts, accessories, next year pages, etc. Awesome!
I LOVE your new filofax! I've recently bought a songbird filofax, but I went to the fiolfax shop today and I fell in love with the Siena, its just so beautiful. I've added it to my Christmas list! I love your box idea, think I'm going to have to do the same!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to reading your next posts :)
Ooh Imy, I see your pollsters aren't helping you much re the diary format, they are neck and neck. We love FF, and as much as I would love to be loyal to FF inserts, they justvdon't make it easy do they. If the 2 days to a page had lines, it would have won hands down for me, but I find writing without the lines a complete pain, and just can't get as much in- is that just weird? Good luck with your set up, Flo is a very lucky girl to have you as an owner as you will treat her so well :-)
ReplyDeleteHelen - Thank you :-) flo is a great name :-)
ReplyDeleteterriknits - i know what you mean i get confused too :-( i kept typing finsbury rather than finchley at first oops :-( but ive got used to it now
the box of bits is the best way to keep track :-d eeeek
lostwithoutyou - my mum has a songbird :-) its so pretty :-)
and the siena is lovely too :-) hope you get it :-D eeek
LJ - i know what you mean its so annoying its even lol the paperchase paper is better wuality but a worse layout just less space!
ive never used lines so will find out if i use it :-D eeek
thank you xx
LOVE your cat shrine!
ReplyDeleteJosh - Thank you they are amazing xxx
