Blast From the Past – June’s Reader Faves
June is a wonderful balance of a month. The year is almost half way through, spring is ending and summer is beginning. It’s a great month to tie up loose ends and finish up projects. But it’s also a wonderful month to start planning new projects and goals. And the reader faves from Junes gone by seem to reflect that.
But don’t take my word for it, scroll on down and see for yourself. The top 5 reader faves of Junes gone by are just below.
What is Blast From the Past
The Blast From the Past is a new post that will come out once a month. It will feature a collection of posts and pages that have hit my monthly top 20-50 posts in previous years. I always find it interesting to see which content stands the test of time and which come and go. The five pieces of content I’m sharing each month will be a mix of all both.
Now enough rambling from me, let’s take a look at these posts.
June’s Reader Faves
I love that each month shares something new and fun. It’s neat to see the rhythms that emerge. This months collection of reader faves seems to lean towards adjusting and making tweaks to existing systems.
The half point of the year is a great time to update home management binders or other home or family reference systems. Change up your planning system or make some changes to how you’re managing your time. The start of summer is also a fabulous time to start planning any projects you need or want to take on during the warmer months.
Or at least, that what the favourite posts and page I’m sharing today seem to say.
Keep on Track with the New Project Planning Printable Set
Originally published in July of 2017, this project planning printable set has all the basics you might need to get started planning your next project. Whether you’re starting in June or another month, this post is one that pops up in the top 20 off and on all year long for the last seven years.
One of my favourite pages in this set is the Project Index. This page allows you to track multiple projects, so in theory you could create a planner just for your projects if you wanted too. Or a section in your current planner. Then print the planning pages you need and away you go.
If you’ve got an upcoming projects, big or small, check out this post by clicking on the image or link below.

Undated Black and White Calendars Featuring Two Pages Per Month
I think undated calendars are fantastic, and many of you feel the same way if the popularity of this post is any indication. I first shared these calendars in April of 2017 and I love seeing them pop up in the top 20 year after year.
Undated calendars make such useful planning tools. They’re wonderful for creating monthly meal plans that you can cycle through over and over. Or work out plans, cleaning plans, and so very much more.
The black and white colour palette makes these ones super ink and/or toner friendly too! As always, check out the post by clicking the image or the link below.

Setting Up My New Planner – A Peek Into My Process
Mind boggling! That’s how seeing this post in my reader favourites feels. First because I vividly remember ordering this planner and being so excited to start using it. It also reminds me that once upon a time, I used to use stickers in my planners. I kind of miss that.
This was another April post, from 2016 this time. I had been using the Disc Agenda planner for a few months and was itching to make some changes to make it work better for me.
I still have and use those stackable list printables. They’re a great way to add some extra planning room to your planner without using up space on your weekly or daily spread.
If you want to take a stroll down memory lane and check out how I used to set up my planners, just follow the link!
Fun Fact – I still have both the planners shown in the picture!

Emergency Contacts and Other Useful Home-Related Information
This post was originally shared in the Home and Life Organized series, which was share in May’s Reader Fave post. This post in particular was published on October 5, 1016. It’s been a reader favourite every June (among many other months) ever since.
In the post you’ll find printables for emergency contacts and other useful information you might want to have on hand. Whether you have a home management binder or system or not, you never know when having this information in a easy to find place will be needed.

Time Management Page
Rounding out June’s favourites is the Time Management page. I originally create this page waaaaaay back in 2013, before I knew much about how to organize a website. Originally, this page was going to be just for time management printables. But over the years it’s slowly evolved.
Currently you can find not just links to printables, but some tips and ideas for how to make managing your time easier. And how to create a system that works with you so you can have more time for the things that matter most.
This page is still evolving and growing. I hope you’ll stop by and visit it from time to time to see what’s new. For now, just tap the image or link below to check it out.
