Beautifully Organized Home Planner: The Ultimate Step-by-Step Guide to Organizing Your Home Life (Beautifully Organized Series)

I wanted to love this, but save your money....
I love most things Nikki Boyd, but this was a huge disappointment. Here's the pro's and cons:Pro:The book opens with a thought provoking process for making a Family Mission Statement.Above average chapter about setting up file cabinet and reducing paper flow. Nothing new, but concise.Cons:Spiral binding that does not allow adding or removing of pages to accommodate your family situation.Spiral binding is attached to book by card stock weight paper that can not possibly support the weight of the pages and will not hold up.Each chapter is fluffed out with multiple copies of the same blank forms, not removable. Not everyone needs several blank pages of pet grooming tracker, or 22, yes thats right, 22 pages of paint color tracker for your home.The book page size is 12x12. Unless you have a printer that will accommodate this size paper you can not customize your own binder using your purchased book.I would highly suggest you get a large binder and go to Flylady.com. She provides several downloads for a home planner that is free and completely customizable for you and your family.Now, I need to figure out how to return this package safely....coronavirus problems.

It is beautifully Organized!
I did not dislike anything about it. Nikki is an Organizer she did what I expected her to do. I am part of her YouTube family. I love everything she does I pre-ordered her 1st book and this book and any other book she decides to create her books are doing books you can actually go to them when you have a question or are like myself working in an area trying to organize something. She is a constant professional she has a beautiful home and office space, she can work a planner like no one I have ever seen that 's should be her next book I don't care how many times she explains it I cannot create or work with planners. I have always been this way with planners. But overall I have organized quite a few spaces from just her youtube channel and her books. With the book, I was able to look at it as I did it. love that!! and yes I would highly recommend this book. It gets your life and your home organized you can write in it for your own personal record for at least 2 homes. I would suggest getting one for each home to keep them organized.

Must have-makes organizing life so much easier
I help people get their life uncomplicated and while I focus on organizing the financial aspect of their lives this is a perfect all things life planner! First, it’s as classy as the author and YouTube Star Nikki Boyd. Second, it fits my style perfectly. Third, Nikki thought of everything- even the paint colors organizer which may not seem like an important item until you start doing paint touch ups in your house and realize you disposed of the paint containers and now have no idea which colors your walls are (speaking from experience :))I noticed some reviewers didn’t like having many pages for the same organizational category/item. I actually think it’s a great feature as I intend to keep this binder for many years to come and even if some items may not be applicable to me at this part of my life, a couple of years from now they might.I can write 100 more things I love about this planner. For me the point of organizing is to simplify your life and this planner does just that and in the record time! A must have and a perfect gift!!

Not a book on organizing. This is a book of forms.
Oh, much to my disappointment, I don’t like this book at all. This book is not at all what I thought it would be. I really liked Nikkis first book-it is full of useful information. This book is more of a “you fill it out forms” book. First she wants you to make a family mission statement...I’m sorry but I think that is dumb and a waste of the entire first chapter. The 2nd chapter is about having family meetings. Again, not useful to me. I have one teenager left in the house. Her and my husband would get a good chuckle if I called a family meeting and wanted to get their feedback on what they think our family mission statement should be. We are just not that formal. I am just a mom who likes organization, and reading about organizing my home. I didn’t really need an expensive book that is full of forms for me to fill out. Lots and lots of pages that you can fill out. Forms that you can make yourself or print off from websites for free. So disappointed with this purchase. Save your money.

Organize Tool
Beautiful Planner.I will use as a guide, for me to pretty to write in. I’ll wait on Nikki to show how it can best used. I would have loved for the pages to be removable, however , I will continue to order from her stationary line and enjoy the planner as a tool.

Beautiful planner
This is a beautiful bond planner. If you have all your information all of the places, this book will help you organize all your family information. Wish I had this when my kids were little. It’s well worth the money.

Fantastic!
I have been really looking forward to this and I have not been disappointed. Although there are a few things that are very American specific, they can either be adapted or just not used for the UK market. The planner itself is incredibly comprehensive and Nikki has put a lot of thought and effort into it, putting in things that I would never have thought of myself. It is such a beautiful planner and I am planning to get another one so that I can use one and have the other just for reference.Just to reference another review, there are lots of pages for paint colours/decoration but each page is room specific such as kitchen, bedroom, lounge etc so I don't think it is too many and works perfectly for keeping track of your home.I would definitely advise everyone to buy one to help keep your home in order because Nikki Boyd really knows what she is doing.

Guía para organización de casa
Es una guía bella que va de la mano del libro del mismo título, solo tal vez la usaría como ideas para basarse a hacer uno su propia carpeta de organización de la casa, tiene muy buenos tips, hay muchos trackers y tablas que son de ayuda, pero en mi caso que somos una familia pequeña habria que adecuar algunas de las tablas. Pero pienso que fue buena compra, para inspiración extra
