Budget DIY: How to Make Your Own Happy Planner Inserts - Laminated Routine Lists

I've been really excited to film a video showing how I make my own laminated planner inserts for my Happy Planner! Ever since I started using my laminating machine, I've been coming up with more and more projects I can do with it, most recently, cash envelopes and these helpful daily routine inserts you see here.

 

Steps are as follows... 

1. Print out your daily task list(s). Mine include morning and nighttime routines as well as cleaning to-dos.
2. Choose the scrap paper you want to appear on the back of each list.
3. Cut all papers to Happy Planner size. My inserts were for my Classic planner so the paper size is 7"W x 9.25H.
4. Place your printed list and scrapbook paper back-to-back, so both are facing outward. You do not need to glue or tape them together.
5. Place papers in a laminating pouch; feed through laminator carefully. (I choose 5 mil on my laminator even if my pouches are 3 mil). Take extra care to make sure the laminated piece comes out straight.
6. Trim excess lamination where needed.
7. Hole punch your laminated piece with the Happy Planner punch, or a round punch if using inside a 3-ring binder. 

8. Write on your laminated pieces with dry erase marker for easy re-use.

This project couldn't be easier but if you aren't able to make your own, you can order a set personalized to your own to-do lists by contacting me directly here. Prices vary depending on number of inserts you'd like. For a peek at the entire process from start to finish, view the full video below:
