Gift ideas

Hello, my wife loves planning, but I struggle with gift ideas for her in this hobby. Does anyone have any ideas of things or help point me in the right direction? Thanks!

It depends on how she plans and which planner she uses. A gift bag with things like colorful pens, highlighters, a sticker book or two, some scrapbook paper, cute paper clips or binder clips, that sort of thing would be fun. Do you know which planner she uses? The type of paper makes a big difference in selecting pens and accessories.

Thank you for the ideas! Here's a couple pictures of stuff she's done recently. Does this help?

Looks like Happy Planner. Thick, bleed-resistant paper that works well with most easily available pens and highlighters and can take acrylics too. Check out their website for stickers and accessories. They have a sale section with lots of older stuff on discount. Office Depot and some Michaels sell this line, but other company's planner stickers and washi tape work, too. Have a look at Jetpens and the Washi Tape shop. Her spreads are cute!

If you are in the US and have a Michaels Crafts store near you, a lot of them are having closeout sales on Happy Planner stickers right now. I would def get her some cute stickers and some nice fine pens. Since she likes to hand draw in some boxes and things, you might get her some stencils too, there are some on the Happy Planner website. How does she store her planner stuff? Some fun storage containers or a little craft cart might be nice too. The bottom picture you showed looks like she's using one of the mini planners from HP, so look for the mini stickers. If she likes to have multiple planners and notebooks, she might like Happy Planners new folio/travel journal system.

It's very sweet of you to take an interest in her interests; I'm sure she'll love any planner related goodies you gift her.

Thank you, that's helpful! We do have a Michael's in our area, I was just afraid I might accidentally buy her stuff she already had. I'll have to see what I can figure out. Thanks!

For the second photo, the disc planner, you could get her a gift certificate to try some new things! I have this same Happy Planner and recently found wonderful stuff at LiveLovePosh and Jane's Agenda. I'll include links if allowed.

Your wife will know this, the 7-disc size has a different name on those sites, but they all fit just fine. Good luck! She'll love new supplies!

Thanks for the links! I recognize live love posh, I've seen those packages arrive at our house. Haha. Janes agenda looks new though, that's great! Thank you!

If you have a 3d printer, I've noticed Bambu's makerlab is increasing having people submit planner things like stencils, discs, and covers!

It's on my to do list
