Paperchase Purr Maids: Ideas and Planner Journal

You may recall last year I went a bit Paperchase crazy with their fabulous unicorn themed Pony Party and Wild Aztec ranges. I still don't think I finished reviewing and photographing all those bits for you as I kept adding to my stash! I had the PP mid year diary, which I'd been getting a lot of use out of for blogging purposes and was a bit worried that it was coming to an end this summer, so was on the look-out for a replacement. My sister spotted an updated version with a sweet little mermaid cat on it and immediately got it for me. Then we investigated and discovered an entire mahoosive collection was coming out and I spent an absolute fortune when it did and bought almost every single thing (probably a 1/3 shown above). I took photos of most of it (months ago), then fell ill and never got round to showing you them (I'd planned on doing one thing at a time). The collection was aimed at "back to school", but some of it is still available so I thought now that I have the time, I'd run through some or all of the things. I don't know how annoying it is for you, seeing stuff that you might not manage to track down, so I'll stick with the items still online for now. Beginning with this wonderful little Ideas and Planner Journal £8.

Now I'm a big fan of the lined paged, glitter notebooks Paperchase do. The glitter covers are beyond amazing and they are covered in a plastic wallet-type cover, which feels totally smooth and so there's no glitter fall-out in your bag or on your desk. This book follows the same look, though it's a smaller square than those other notebooks. It comes in a gorgeous aqua colour* with an adorable Purr Maid and shell in the centre. *Matching nail colour optional.

The book features the most beautiful coloured pages, split into 8 categories and I've photographed each set for you.  These double pages show each day split into sections with a column for notes and the bottom is decorated with delightful Purr Maids and mice.
This one has four blank speech bubbles over the two pages for doodling or writing thoughts and again, major "awwww" at those kitties!

Ah the good ol' pros and cons list.  On ruled pages with smitten kittens to distract from whatever you're debating!  

Across these pages you'll find columns for each month of the year and 31 (numbered) rows for each day of that month.  Great for looking at a glance at events or important dates throughout the year.  

My Designs is lilac grid paper, perfect for...designing!  

Thoughts and Ideas are again blank spaces for writing or drawing with a pastel shell background.  

Ah the classic "To Do" list.  One page states "To Do Today" and the other "To Do This Week".  The page is lined with coloured dots for ticking satisfaction and yes, more cute Purr Maids.  

Finally Perfect Plans is double paged, lined, pink paper for list writing.  

Despite it's compact size, there's 192 pages and enough room for what needs to be written.  Though the pages are super pretty, they are practical too.  I can see me using this one a lot.  Actually I'm kicking myself for using my diary the other day for something, when I should've used this.  I think my favourite is the To Do list pages and daily planning squares.  You can buy this journal here.
