Few days left before we say "sayonara" to October 2016.  Time really flies fast...  I just wanted to share my planner spreads for the month of October. When other creative planning enthusiasts choose to decorate their planner with different theme every week.  I decided to have one planner theme for the whole month. For this month I chose "Afternoon High tea party" theme. I love tea... (instead of coffee) Tea cups, tier cake plates, mini cakes, mini sandwiches and macarons excites me.. I can honestly say that this theme is - very me!♥ xo, Chiq♥

Been to this planner thingy just this year... I am a craft and scrapbook enthusiast, but due to my busy schedule I need to put that aside for a couple of years.  Now am back to what I really love.  I realized that this is what really de-stresses me.  After all day numbers at work seeing cutie stickers and crafting supplies makes me giddy. My current planner & DIY planner charm  I do love collecting planners, but I don't really write on them... Starbucks planner collection (hihi) I just love seeing them piled up on my table.   At the moment I have 2 planners (used in planner decorating), one for work and the other an A5 Ever New Planner which I leave at my home.  Oh I have another one a Kate Spade Rose gold Wellesley.   I am a little kuripot (miserly) when it comes to planner supplies, though I sometimes splurge on pens, but when it comes to stickers I just print those I find online.  That's why I love Pinterest so mu...
