Today I unboxed my beautiful new Erin Condren planner! In this post and video, I’m sharing my Erin Condren Planner Review.
I’ve been using these gorgeous weekly planners for years now and you may have read my previous Erin Condren reviews. For the past couple of planners, I’ve opted for the Neutral color scheme but this time, I went with a Canvas Asterisk design in the compact vertical layout and I LOVE it.
And wait til you see the inside!

Erin Condren Planner Review: AboutErin Condren Planners
For me, the quality of the Erin Condren range is the main driver that brings me back to their planners each year.
The range of agendas and planners is vast, with a planner to suit every budget and every need.
In fact, the range includes:
- Daily planners
- Weekly planner
- Monthly planners
- Specific planners such as an Erin Condren Teacher Planner, Erin Condren Wedding Planner, Erin Condren Student Planner and Erin Condren Academic Planner.
EC personalized planners and organizers also make beautiful gifts for friends and family too.
For me, it’s the EC personalized Life Planner all the way. This is the best life planner for me because it’s so customizable.
I love the Vertical weekly planner because I’m a list-maker and I really like how each day has a long vertical column that I can separate into everything I need to get done.
You can find out how I plan my week and set up my vertical layout planner here.
As well as the Erin Condren Vertical Planner, you might prefer the structure of the Erin Condren Hourly or Horizontal LifePlanner.
You can buy an Erin Condren LifePlanner online at the ErinCondren store here.

Erin Condren Life Planner Review – Watch the Video!
Full review below – and watch the flip through video here of my previous Erin Condren unboxing to get a good idea of the LifePlanners:
The Erin Condren Life Planner is a coiledvertical weekly planner that has plenty of space each day for list-makers like me.
I opted for the rose gold foil – you can also chose a metal or colorful Aspire coil.
If you’re a big sticker user, I recommend choosing a 12-month planner (I always decorate my planner with Erin Condren stickers!) because the stickers can make the planner a bit too bulky by the end of the year!
Speaking of stickers, multiple sheets are included in the back – packed with bright and foiled stickers to choose from.
