How to Make Your Own 8.5×11 Planner Binder
These pages are specifically designed to fit an 8.5″ x 11″ 3-ring binder. They will also work with a BIG Happy Planner. I like gorgeous, customized sunflower binder that I found on Amazon, but any will do (if you want to use the cover that comes with this printable, get a 3-ring binder with a clear cover – you can probably find this cheapest at Walmart or your local office supply store). You’ll also need a 3-hole punch!
Use any paper you like! This is my favorite paper (I have a subscription to it, and I get two reams every few months – every time I print something on it and take it out in public, people comment on how awesome it is).
This printable prints best on 8.5 x 11 paper. There is a margin for you to punch holes.
You can print out all of the pages, or just the ones you need. I recommend printing the pages out individually. if you’re printing pages back-to-front (duplex), do this page by page. It takes a little longer, yes, but you will avoid misprints and save paper, time, and ink (trust me on this!). It may take a couple of times to get into the rhythm if you’ve never done this before, but once you’ve done it a few times I promise it gets easier and makes more sense.
Is this planner available in other sizes?
Yes! it is also available to fit a Classic Happy Planner, which is 7″ x 9.25″. You can find that version here.
