Why do I love Filofaxes?

I know that people NEVER understand the whole love for Filofaxes, and never get why I buy so many or love to look at it and feel it, well here are my reasons why, and oh there are lots more reasons this is just a few off the top of my head!

1. How beautiful they look and feel

This is my New Compact Regency, I really am in love with her, the nobles on her leather, but how smooth it is, oh she is just a dream, the inside layout is just amazing, it has everything I need, she is just oh so perfect.

I love to feel the leather as it is just so soft but lumpy at the same time, I am really in love with her. I love to smell the spine down the hole where the rings are, just smells like a shoe shop (remember when you were little and you went to get new school shoes and all you could smell was a luscious smell of leather, well that's how she smells)

2. Tab's and Dividers

I love how you can make it your own, have as many or as little tabs as you like, you can make your own you can use standard ones you can use stick on Avery tabs, the possibilities are actually endless! It just makes it so free and customisable so you can have EVERYTHING you need with you at all times!

3.Diary

You can have your whole diary and have any format you require, you don't have to be stuck to one format for a year you can change as MANY TIMES AS YOU LIKE! You never have to be stuck with something for a whole year if it doesn't work for you, you just take it out and put in a new one! If you are feeling really adventurous you can EVEN make your own diary and print it off! Not one person has to have the same Filofax, it is all so different!

4. Planning

You can plan and plan until your little heart is content, you can put EVERYTHING down on paper, you can print off bits of a travel plan hole punch it, fold it and put it your Filofax, you can use it as a travel organiser, a meetings organiser, a blog planner, you can use it for EVERYTHING you do, I make pages for different things I need to plan as I go along, or I look for old pages that people have any use them to my advantage, I love to plan everything to the smallest detail on paper, in my diary where it is safe and I know where it is, I never need to worry about it loosing power! IT IS ALWAYS ON!

5. Keeping Track of Things

I keep Track of so much in my Filofax, but I love how it doesn't matter if you miss something you can go back to it and fill it out at a later date, the data base wont close down, power cuts wont affect it, it will stay there until the ends of time (unless you use Frixion pens like me and then it will eventually evaporate). But it is the one thing I always go too.

And those are some reasons why I love to use a Filofax, I would recomend them to anyone I would sell them to the world, I will make it so that every person has to own one on their 18th birthday if I could, they can help you out so much with your lives. So everyone go out and buy one today! eBay has so many bargains, just go out and make it your own and have the best Filofax Life you can!!!

Ever since the day I started using a Filofax I have never been able to turn back.

I LOVE YOU FILOFAX!!! 

I don't know what I could do without you!!!!

Thinning my Filofax & Avery Tabs - The Obsession

I am considering moving to a Compact Regency (I am definitely getting a Regency, its just whether or not I can thin my life down enough to move to Compact or stick with Personal, it is going to be brown tho) so I have been practicing with thinning my Filofax down!!!

Start...

Spare note paper taken out..

Measures at just about an inch!

Untitled

I got home and I covered it in Avery Tabs, thinned everything out, took out some diary any excess I didn't need!!!

Untitled

About half an inch...

Untitled

Just above 1 cm

Untitled

Hasn't it had a strict diet of Avery Tabs and less paper!!! Now to see what else I need to put in before it is finished!! Then I can know if the Compact will work, the idea of less ring in the way as you write sound luxury for me, otherwise I will have to completely STUFF the Personal sized one!

Avery Tabs - The Obsession

I went to Staples last night in search of Avery Tabs as I love them, I wanted to use them instead of my dividers so here is what I have done...

Making Filofax Pages

I got a bit carried away this morning, I started to print different pages I was making then I decided that I should type everything and print it all out as a way to make my Filofax tidier and thinner and have a lot less in it!

I made some Blog Planning sheets with Another Goldfish had made, I didn't copy them I changed them to my preferences, but I printed them on lined paper as I was too excited!!!
