Day 4 of Penny Planning Hacks ✂️📓
Today we’re finally starting the transformation — updating the cover and inside pages of an outdated planner so it actually feels new again.
The obvious move is stickers (and yes, I’ll probably end up there 😅), but this series is about options. Whiteout, washi, handwriting, full decorative covers — you don’t need fancy supplies or perfection. You just need something that makes the planner feel like yours.
✨ Your task today: decide how you want to update your cover page, then share your idea in the comments. It might help someone else figure out their approach.
Save this for when you’re decorating, and follow for Day 5 — we’re tackling the Year-at-a-Glance pages next, including how to redate them or repurpose them with no dates at all.
