📅 What to Do With Those 12 Planning Boxes in the Erin Condren LifePlanner? Our Affiliates Have Ideas!

If you’ve ever opened up your Erin Condren LifePlanner and paused at the 12 empty boxes at the front of the planner, wondering what to do with them — you’re not alone! These monthly boxes are full of potential, and our amazing PlannerKate affiliates are here to inspire you with some creative and meaningful ways to use them. 💡✨

💖 Becky’s Memory Highlights | @sallsmomplans

Becky turns her 12 boxes into a mini memory book by using each one to highlight a special moment from each month of the year.

“I use my mini printer (HP Sprocket) and the PicCollage app to print small photos that fit perfectly into each box. It’s such a fun way to preserve a tiny slice of life throughout the year!”

To decorate, she used:

PK Thin Washi for clean borders
Coordinating circles from journaling kits
2025 Kit Months Scripts – Font 1 for beautiful monthly headers

“These are my absolute favorite pages in my planner!”

📖 Debbie’s “Currently” Tracker | @debbie.pettit

Debbie uses her boxes to document her monthly “currently” — a snapshot of what she’s currently reading, watching, loving, eating, and more.

To decorate, she used:

“I’ve done this for years. It’s fun to look back and see what I was into each month. Plus, it’s super quick to fill out!”

This simple habit creates a year-long reflection that feels both personal and playful — and with PlannerKate’s functional labels, it’s easy to keep things neat and colorful.

📚 Jennifer’s Book Log | @happyplaceplanning

Jennifer is using her boxes to track her Book of the Month Club reads — using PlannerKate’s Monthly Bookshelf to log titles, authors, and reading dates.

“I love seeing a year of books all in one place. It’s like a tiny bookshelf built into my planner!”

Pair with mini icons or label stickers from the shop to make it even more organized and inspiring.
