Hello, friends!
 
Creating texture in your planner setup is aesthetically pleasing and can have a functional purpose, too!

Kim Odekoven: Layers + Little Secrets: How to Add Texture and Function to Your Planner Pages

  
There’s something magical about opening a planner and discovering not just a to-do list, but a little piece of art—and maybe even a surprise tucked inside. For this layout, using the Cocoa Daisy Flutterby Planner Kit, I wanted to play with layers and pockets for my weekly dashboard. It's not just for looks, but for functionality.
  
  
Layering is one of my favorite ways to add dimension. I love the pop of color and dots, with the backside of the paper and torn edges also giving it some softness. The PET stickers are always a winner; they are always the first thing gone in each month's kit. These little choices create visual interest without overwhelming the spread. It still feels clean and open, but rich with detail.
 
 
I created a pocket to add a tag with a 'this week' priority list and a meal plan for the week, but you could just as easily add some journaling prompts, memory, or photo from the week on the backside of the tag or a smaller tag with goals or gratitude notes!
The pocket becomes your planner’s little secret—a space just for you.
