Hello guys! And hellooooooo December! As of right now, 2016 is pretty close isn't it? Soon it's gonna be Christmas and then a new year awaits.
Every year end, I would be secretly wishing that someone would give me a planner for the next coming year so that I do not have to put a dollar on it at all. Let's all admit, most planners (and I mean the really pretty ones, not the plain monotone ones) in the market are pretty dang expensive.
Personally, I am someone who tends to forget about plans and events easily. Tell me about a meetup a month in advance and I'll forget all about a few hours later. And I blame aging for my deteriorating memory. So planners are kind of a must for me!
I was randomly scrolling through social media as usual when I saw an Instagram post by blogger Jemma Wei featuring a 2016 planner by The Paper Bunny! I didn't pay much attention at first because the cover looks like most other planners but as she posted more about it, I got curious and headed over to her blog (click here) for more details...
I HAVE TO GET IT!
That was what I told myself after I saw how the planner looks on the inside.
Have a sneak peek with Jemma's video:
& after waiting for 5 long days....
It came in my mailbox!
You know the feeling that you get when you're unsure how the quality of your item will be like when you're making your purchase online and you're kinda uncertain if your money has been used on something worth it?
I had that feeling too but when I unwrapped my planner, I was super impressed with how smooth the cover is! It's kind of hard to describe but I guess you have to get your own to get how I feel about it.
The planner comes with:
Paper-wrapped hard cover
Gold foil detailing
13-month agenda from December 2015 to December 2016
Monthly & weekly views, with space for notes & scribbles
Birthdays & celebrations section
Saving & spending section
Motivational quotes & hand lettering throughout
Selected world holidays & fun holidays
Month tabs
180 degree lay flat opening
Satin ribbon placeholder & elastic closure
Pocket for receipts & little notes
Paper-wrapped hard cover & gold foil detailing
Available in nude, classic black & white marble
I decided to get white marble
because I have loads of things that are classic black already hahaha
Month tabs
This makes things so much more convenient along with the placeholder!
Motivational quotes
Oh my god... Love this!
It's on almost every other page
13-month agenda from December 2015 to December 2016

The planner is a collaboration between The Paper Bunny and Jemma and it holds all the things that Jemma wants in a planner all in one! Quotes, tabs, designs... It's everything I love as well! The planner isn't too complicated with too many different colours and stuff. It keeps everything simple where it should be and its really light so its really convenient to bring around.
The planner is going at SGD$39.90 and I think that it is pretty worth it when you compare with the other planners in the market. I've used different brands of planners throughout the years and I think that this one is really good in comparison with others. The book feels really sturdy and the paper quality is really good (I can use markers to write without marking on the back of the page).
The planner starts from December 2015 so I can start today! Anyone out there still looking for a planner for 2016, I would highly recommend this one! :)
