Personalize · made to order

Your name on the cover.

It appears in three places: on the cover beneath the product name, on the About This Planner page just after it, and along the edge of every day page. Two lines of your own can sit under it.

Applies toPersonalizedCustomized + personalized

Personalizing adds your name. It comes on the classic pages unless you also choose the day and week pages, which is customizing: a separate choice, and either one is a good order on its own.

A real personalized cover. The product name leads; your name sits below it.

Three places

Where your name appears

Your name is set in the same quiet capitals as everything else on the page, and sized so it never competes with your handwriting.

On the cover Below the creek rule, with your two optional lines under it.
On the About This Planner page Just after the cover, reading MADE FOR and your name.
On every day page A small signature along the edge, 365 times over.

If you're buying it for someone else, their name is inside the file, not just on the cover.

Build it here.

Type your name and see where it sits on the cover. When it looks right, Etsy asks for it in a few short prompts, and the box below tells you exactly what to enter. Nothing is sent from this page.

Your name on the classic pages.

On the cover, on the About This Planner page, and down the edge of every day page. 0 of 20 characters

A second line, in up to two parts (optional)

Both parts sit on one line under your name, joined with a ·. Use one, use both, or leave them out. They appear on the cover and the About This Planner page, and share 60 characters. 0 of 60 characters used across both parts

Three ways people fill it in

  • Katie Smith Just your name. Enough to make the file unmistakably yours.
  • Katie SmithOptimistic about Mondays One part on its own. It can run the whole 60 characters, so a full sentence fits.
  • Katie SmithLincoln High · Chemistry Both parts, where two facts belong side by side. The dot does the separating for you.

Where your words land

A rough sketch, to show where your words sit. The cover you get is built by the same tool that makes the planner, in the typeface on the real covers.

A name-only order comes on the classic pages. Switch to My pages + my name above to choose these too.

These renders are the plain pages, so your name is not in them. It will be in your file: a small signature down the edge of every day page.

Then choose these on Etsy

    How to order

    1. Open the right listing

      There are three: your pages, your name, or both. They're priced differently, so they're separate listings. The button above opens the one that matches what you built here.

    2. Answer a few short prompts

      Etsy asks for your color and how your weeks and dates run, and for the pages too if you're choosing those. They're menus, so there's nothing to spell and nothing to mistype.

    3. Type your name

      The only thing you type, so it's the only place a typo can hide. I build exactly what the box says. If something looks wrong when your file arrives, message me and I'll fix it.

    4. I build it and send it

      Please allow 1 to 3 business days. You receive both orientations, built to your order, as a zip attached to your order on Etsy.

    The limits, so nothing surprises you

    NameUp to 20 characters. Short names look best: this is a signature, not a headline.
    Lines 2 and 360 characters shared between them.
    DeliveryNot an instant download. A personalized file cannot be, because it does not exist until you order.
    IncludedLandscape and portrait, both built to your configuration, plus a START HERE guide in your theme.
    ReturnsA file with someone's name on it is genuinely non-returnable. Spelling is worth a second look.
    In a hurry?Message me before ordering and I'll tell you honestly whether I can.

    Want it now instead? The ready-made classic editions use the classic pages, include every week start and regional format, and download the moment you order. See the ready-made editions.

    Two ways to make it yours

    Choose your pages as well?

    Personalizing puts your name on it. Customizing changes which pages are inside. They're separate, and you can have both.
