Fan Friday Feature: Planning with Purpose with Christin Huether 💗
We’re back with another Fan Friday, and this week we’re so excited to introduce you to Christin Huether—a lifelong planner lover whose functional-yet-pretty style is both relatable and inspiring!
💁♀️ Meet Christin
Christin is based in Ashland, Missouri, and her planning journey is one that so many of us can relate to—it started with a simple school requirement and turned into a lifelong habit.
From middle school planners to college and into her teaching career, planning has always been part of her daily rhythm. But everything changed in 2015 when she spotted a fellow teacher using an Erin Condren LifePlanner. That moment sparked her transition into the world of high-quality planners—and she’s been hooked ever since.
✨ Her Planning Style
Christin describes her style as functional with a touch of decorative, and honestly, it’s the best of both worlds. She prioritizes making her planner work for her busy life, but still loves adding those little details that make it feel fun and personal.
Her current go-to is the Erin Condren Dashboard LifePlanner, but she’s excited to switch things up and head back to the Vertical layout with the upcoming launch. If there’s one thing we love, it’s a planner who isn’t afraid to experiment!
📌 Sticker Love
Christin has been using stickers since she got her first Erin Condren planner—and like many of us, it started with a simple recommendation from a friend. After joining planner groups and seeing beautifully decorated spreads, she quickly fell in love with the creativity stickers bring.
Her favorites?
What she loves most is how PlannerKate stickers strike that perfect balance: functional AND fun.
🗓️ Her Weekly Routine
Christin keeps her planning routine simple and effective:
Sundays: Plan out the entire week ahead
Evenings: Update daily—checking things off, shifting tasks, and adding new to-dos
It’s a system that keeps her organized and motivated—and that satisfying feeling of checking off tasks? Totally unmatched.
🌿 How Her Planning Has Evolved
Over time, Christin has learned what truly works for her. She’s tried every Erin Condren layout (we love the dedication!) and discovered that her must-haves are:
✔️ Space for appointments & events✔️ Plenty of room for to-do lists
Because at the end of the day, a planner should support your life—not complicate it.
🎨 About Her Featured Spread
Christin’s featured spread is such a great reminder to get creative with what you already have.
After collecting sticker kits for layouts she no longer uses, she started experimenting—and the result is pure magic. In this spread, she uses a PlannerKate kit originally designed for the discontinued Compact Vertical layout and adapts it beautifully into her Dashboard planner.
Her tip?
👉 Don’t be afraid to think outside the box.👉 Cut stickers, reposition them, and make them work for YOU.
It’s such a refreshing take—and proof that your supplies can go so much further with a little creativity.
